Fetish: R U Human (5/5 Stars)

genre: straight (with some girl-on-girl), fetish (mild)

Dirt Smears are a Fetish?

This artcore film by Laurent Sky would be fantastic background for a party or nightclub, but is a little non-linear to sit down and watch. Once the movie gets going, it's almost entirely sex scenes, with little filler, but it's a bit slow to start. The settings and costumes were very attractive, although the lighting and editing occasionally detract from the actual sexual content. Some of the images are slightly disturbing, which might make it unacceptable to some viewers, although others might find this a selling point. Although most of the actresses had typical porn bodies, there were a couple women who were bigger than usually seen in porn, and that was a welcome change.

The sexual acts featured, however, are fairly standard. The fetish content is mostly apparent in the costumes and setting, which is nightclub-mimicking-warehouse style. There's a touch of voyeurism and a little medical fetish in the final scene. There's also a repeated image of a man using a penis pump, but that's not an actual scene. It's very reminiscent of a music video. The biggest complaint about this film (which is strictly a matter of taste) is that the music overwhelms the sex sounds -- in fact, in many scenes, the actual sounds of sex are not playing at all. However, the music (dance/industrial) is not bad, if a bit repetitive.

It's a really well produced and beautiful film, which would be great to have on in the background, but not recommended for an evening of quality alone time.

Condoms are used for some acts in this film, but it's not consistent.

Fashionistas (Disc 2 of 2), 5/5 stars

Genre: Straight, Fetish (mild).

Rubber Baby Bugger Humpers

High-budget porn like Fashionistas is rare, beautiful, and should be encouraged at every opportunity. The film quality and editing are well done and sexy. There are a few interesting lighting effects, but nothing so aggressively "artistic" as to detract from the main point of an adult film -- which is to arouse. The pacing and balance between "story" scenes and sex scenes is also well done, and the sex scenes do actually relate to the plot, which is a nice touch. The acting is a little wooden, but compared to standard porn acting, these are Oscar-worthy performances.

When it comes down to it, though, Fashionistas is about the clothes, just like the title would suggest. The fetish fashions that this movie features include rubber masks, lots of latex, and even a pony-girl. The settings are creative and varied as well. However, the fetish is light enough in this movie to be enjoyable by most people, and not just fetish enthusiasts. There's some spanking, a little flogging, and a few other toys get cameos, but most of the scenes involve traditional oral, vaginal, or anal penetration, including some of the most impressive deep-throating I've seen recently. Belladonna is impressive (as a performer and athlete) in every scene she appears in. One odd thing -- there was no all-girl sex scenes (on this disc).

This was disc 2 of 2, and although I haven't seen the first disc yet, the plot is not complex enough for this to be a serious problem. Based on having seen this half, I'd recommend either half to anyone who didn't actually have an aversion to latex.

However, despite all the other latex, no condoms are evident in any scene in this film.
