this is a full-blown artistic statement from Stagliano, and for that a few passes
must be granted. And while Stagliano’s vision may be “too European” for some
Americans weaned on cheap, all-sex porn, they’d be missing a lot if they didn’t at
least take a look at Fashionistas Safado: Berlin. (Reviewed by Mike Albo)
8. Fiesta (Ultimate Pictures/Adam & Eve Pictures, 2001): The plot is less sub-
stantial than a cobweb, but never mind—just sit back and enjoy the fine South
American scenery along with some very well shot scenes of dancers dancing and
tourists rutting in some fabulous semi-tropical outdoor locations. The picture is
gorgeous and the settings paradisiacal, X-rated, Latin-American-tinged Fantasy
Island without the plot or guilt. (Reviewed by Melinda Messinger)
9. Flight Attendants (X-Play/Adam & Eve, 2009): From the creators of Not the
Bradys XXX & the AVN Best Comedy winner Not Bewitched XXX comes a
hilarious porn comedy about airports, jets & horny flight attendants. Wild
hijinks and dirty sex acts abound as beautiful flight attendants fight for air
superiority in this deliciously dirty airplane fuck-fest.
10. Fly Girls (Digital Playground, 2010): Several big-name porn stars, playing
themselves, casually stroll onto a real plane outfitted as crewmembers, and once off
the ground, engage in all sorts of sexual activity with the real passengers, believing
that they’re shooting a “reality porn” movie for hidden cameras secretly installed
earlier, in which everyone aboard is hired talent. (Reviewed by Peter Warren)
11. Island Fever (Digital Playground, 2001): This is one gorgeous video. Shot in
Hawaii, with one desert scene that was probably shot stateside, it combines
beautiful scenery with hot, albeit couples-friendly, sex. Not here the closed-eyed
let’s-get-it-over-with tepid encounters familiar from “couples videos,” but
enthusiastic couplings with people who like to fuck and enjoy what they’re
doing. Thankfully, Tera Patrick is in three of the five scenes, giving credibility to
her top billing and featured status on the box. … And there are three sequels
worthy of getting some shelf space. (Reviewed by Tod Hunter)
12. Joanna Angel and James Deen’s European Vacation (BurningAngel/Vouyer,
2009): You can easily believe that this was the result of a European vacation with
James Deen and Joanna Angel. … Along the way they knock off a few pieces
including a wild bathtub scene, some outdoor sex that voyeurs would love to see,
and even a long club scene where Steve Holmes and friends join in for a group
grope. (Reviewed by Dirty Bob)
13. The Love Bus (Video-X-Pix, 1974, rerelease reviewed in 2006): The plot of
this 1974 East Coast film has over-sexed Jennifer Jordan taking shrink Jamie
Gillis’ advice (after mish, spoon and doggie) to head for the Catskills to meet
single guys—except Sonny Landham manages to detour the tour bus to his run-
down farm, where the main activity is sex. (Reviewed by Mark Kernes)
14. Manuel’s Fucking French Vacation (Manuel Ferrara/Evil Angel, 2011): In
director/star stud Manuel Ferrara’s Raw series, he presents intimate, practically
unedited private sessions with favorite porn girls—the genuinely lustful kind.
There’s no camera crew, lighting rigs or pizza guys, just raw fuck footage showing
how horny people truly look in the throes of very real sex. On vacation in his
native France, Manuel’
s camera captured five authentic, “raw” encounters with
French girls, and the result is the double-DVD … an enviable vacation.

15. Mrs. Smith’s Erotic Holiday (VCA, rereleased in 2005): Told entirely in
flashback by two old codgers over dinner, the story (such as it is) revolves around
Mr. and Mrs. Smith (Sally Swift, Tommy LaRock) whose love life is unsatisfactory
until they decide to book themselves on an all-sex cruise sponsored apparently by
the N.Y. School for Porn Over-Acting. We’re not kidding; nothing approaching a
normal dialogue takes place here. (Reviewed by Mark Kernes)
16. Pink Lagoon (Collector’s Video, 1984): This sequel to Surrender in Paradise,
again shot in the South Pacific, features some of the finest production values ever
seen in an adult film. The cinematography captures the lush island
surroundings while the editing, music and direction help make this film top-
notch movie-making. The group of gals that formed Jerry Butler’s stable in the
first film come back to the island to take our hero home. But first,
they must embark on a weird treasure hunt that eventually leads
these Gilligan’s Island-type characters to a corrupt film crew (that
features director Frazer) who are trying to exploit the sexual
adventures of Butler.
17. Pleasure Island (Adult Source Media, 2008): Six strangers find
themselves trapped together on a seemingly deserted island in this
animated adult movie. As they give into their innermost desires,
they begin to evolve into their true hidden selves. Concealed
cameras recording their every move. How will they escape? Who is
watching them? Will they become overcome with lust? Relax, take a
deep breath, and immerse yourself in this island adventure.
18. Playgirls of Munich (After Hours Cinema/VCX, 1979, rerelease
reviewed in 2005): Roger Caine and Zebedy Colt play Chuck and
Barney, two bad luck buddies who work for the phone company—
although their future employment is seriously uncertain. After the
two unlikely sex gods find themselves unexpectedly shoved out of a
small airplane and subsequently stranded in Germany, they fuck
their way across the country while working odd jobs and pissing off
the local male population. There’s a campy charm to this retro fuck
flick, and the addition of men wearing lederhosen, a traditional beer
haus, a virginal Miss Bavaria, her stocky and assertive female
guardian, a German Mafioso, and a “sorority house” full of
prostitutes only up the sensation. (Reviewed by Darklady)
19. Sex Slaves and Fairy Tales (MagikView/Private/Pure Play, 2011):
Shot on the Greek island of Mykonos, a group of horny and lonely
fairies live in a secluded villa, waiting to trap men. Each man is
entranced by the magical draw of the villa. Once they enter they are
seduced by the anal sex-obsessed fairies. Now trapped under their
spell, each man becomes their possession and a marked sex slave in
this horny fairy tale. (Reviewed by Heather Namikoshi)
20. Sextet (Vivid Entertainment Group, 2005): No doubt it is a
beautiful-looking, shot-on-film feature by Paul Thomas, a man who
knows a thing or two about shooting a film. It’s a bit of a film
within a film, with the actors talking about their parts before they
actually take on their roles. A nice selection of girls, consistently hot
sex and some great backdrops, thanks to gorgeous Budapest
locations. (Reviewed by Acme Andersson)
21. Seymore Butts in Paradise (Factory Home Video, 1993): Here,
we finally get to meet the elusive Shane, whom we only got to see
the lower parts of in Seymore Butts And The Mystery Girl. … She’s all
over Seymore practically from the moment they meet, so he takes
her down to Puerto Vallarta for a vacation, where Shane knows of a
dance club named “Shameless” and a dancer with long red hair
named Nina, who joins the couple for the last hour (tape time) of
their Mexican stay. (Reviewed by Mark Kernes)
22. Shane’s World (Odyssey Group Video, 1996): What we have is a
collection of lusty guys and dolls, some of whom we happen to
know are into each other in their personal lives, cavorting with
abandon in a motor home barreling down route 10 to the Mojave,
and apparently having a great time doing it... and Doing It.
(Reviewed by Mark Kernes)
23. She-Male Road Trip (Joey Silvera/Evil Angel, 2001): She-Male
Road Trip does move from coast to coast and down to Brazil, but
that’s nothing new. Start out in L.A. with Brenda and Katrina
trading b.j.s with a guy, who nearly chokes on Katrina’s cock before
Brenda fucks his ass. Both gals gape for the camera, then Brenda
and the guy jerk off together. Then it’s off to New York, as dark
Diamond mishes Kate Frost, and she returns the favor with a
strap-on. (Reviewed by Mark Kernes) >>
