LIGHTS, CAMERA ...
Lana Rhoades Unleashed
scrumptious as the star—2018 Female Performer of the Year nominee
Lana Rhoades.
In the first scene, a boy/girl with Manuel Ferrara, Rhoades does a tease
on a downtown rooftop and then heads indoors to pull off her mesh
teddy to reveal those epic curves, accessorized with thigh-high hot pink
boots. Warm sunlight caresses her body, then Manuel takes over, lowering
her gently onto a white couch before fiercely squeezing her breasts. Her
legs held aloft, still in pink boots, Rhoades vibrates with pleasure while
Ferrara teases her pussy. She returns the favor with a vigorous blowjob
before Ferrara goes straight to the A and stays there throughout, aside
from a little A2M, before ending in an anal cream pie.
Scene two also begins on a rooftop, but this time with a green screen
of eucalyptus trees as a backdrop. We get an eyeful of our star before
the camera dips down to reveal Adriana Chechik on her knees, crawling
toward Lana’s clit. Pulsing music and tight closeups make the action
seem almost slow-mo as the camera moves around, focusing on hands
slipping beneath lingerie until a pink dildo comes into view. Soon the
ladies are rocking back and forth, the camera in so tight all you see is
the two pussies united by a pink rod. After they go inside, it’s time for
Markus Dupree to crawl into the frame, munching on Adriana’s ass
while she makes out with Lana. Their three-way tryst involves plenty
of energetic sharing until Dupree pops in Rhoades’ mouth followed by
several rounds of cum-swapping.
Scene three gives the viewer a bit of a breather: mellower music, softer
focus, a sensual makeout session with Mandingo, who starts with a little
vag sex warmup before attempting anal—an impressive feat … but it will
soon be topped in the next scene.
Wearing black boots and a skimpy, strappy number, Rhoades means
business. She stalks along a walkway over an indoor-outdoor pool as if
she’s on a Milan runway. Waiting for her in a lavish living room with
hillside views are Mick Blue and Dupree, outfitted with matching black
tank tops and slacks. The high-style setting gives way to a hardcore
spectacle: double penetration topped by double anal. And this is no quick
trick: Rhoades repeatedly takes on these substantial cocks in her ass, two

at a time, “This is the best orgasm of my life,” she
moans. “Keep sliding those cocks in and out. … I’m
gonna cum again.” It’s just the kind of bravado that
earns many points of extra credit in a d.p. scene.
At the end of three hours plus, there’s a break in
the action as Mason takes time out to salute her star.
It’s praise that’s justifiably earned.

Kayden Kross has done the unthinkable: she has made
art porn erotic. When a director sets things up with a
hyper-romantic quote from “Wuthering Heights,” you
know she’s not on the usual XXX wavelength. When all four
vignettes sizzle and burn, you know she’s doing it right.
Superbly photographed (by Winston Henry), the movie is
oblique and deliberately mystifying. You’re never sure just
what you’re watching, but what you see is often incandescent.
Katrina Jade, bound, gets unwound by two hooded muscular
men. She blows them both as a hooded priest-like figure
watches from a throne. (It’s her real-life husband, Nigel
Dictator.) Then the hoods come off and she kisses Charles
Dera and Tommy Gunn. Dera fucks her as she blows Gunn.
The scene is totally controlled and deliberate, building to
volcanic and almost unhinged.
The delicious looking Honey Gold gets banged—and how!—
by Mick Blue in a room lit by red neon. Again, beauty and heat.
Angela White wanders through a garage housing a vintage
Lincoln Continental. Manuel Ferrara shows up too. He face-
fucks her. She is almost abject in her need. “Thank you so
much for fucking me.” This is no longer porn star Angela, but
a desperately horny, driven woman, pleading for more, more,
more.
Four men have been waiting in the Lincoln. She blows
them all. With its moody back-lighting, it’s one of the artiest
blowbangs ever, but also one of the most intense. Manuel
fucks her on her back while the other guys jerk off. She writhes
on the floor, rubbing cum all over her body It’s one of the
Australian superstar’s most memorable scenes, and it probably

couldn’t have happened without a woman behind the camera.
Finally, Kayden herself, drop-dead gorgeous, in vibrant color
against a black background, plays with red-haired Jillian Janson.
Then they both attack Manuel, who is reflected in a plate-glass
mirror. Kayden performs a super-erotic tease. The way she looks
at him alone—especially while she’s stroking Jillian’s pussy—is
bound to be boner-inducing. The women share his stiff cock.
Chemistry rules.
