Best of the Sale: Popular With Women & More
A great deal of adult entertainment looks like it could be best underscored with some Rammstein, but to focus solely on the most aggressive and in-your-face varieties of porn is to miss out on some of its subtler offerings. The latest Adult Empire VOD sale brings together movies from several such genres: “popular with women,” romance, and couples. Start here with some highlight picks!
The One I Lust
In the past year, director and star Kayden Kross has caught attention with the Deeper movies, a series of psychological mindbenders that have brought the sensibility of art and indie cinema to porn. Kross’s earlier The One I Lust is the forerunner of her later output, boasting a twisting, eerie storyline to go along with a terrific leading performance by Kendra Lust. In a plot that pays homage to the mainstream critical fave The One I Love, the movie tracks Lust and husband Steve Holmes as they head off to a weekend retreat. They are astonished to discover that this most unusual getaway spot seems to be populated by duplicates of themselves. The psychological (and sexual) possibilities are endless!

When It Comes to You
It’s a question that has vexed many a lover over the years. Who is a better match: the passionate flame who ignites limitless sexual pleasure, or the stable, quiet person who is tame in the bedroom but offers a calming, reliable presence in your life? We can’t say we’re anywhere close to being able to give you a proper answer on that tricky question, but we can confidently say that the scenario has inspired a very hot porn movie, namely When It Comes To You. Anna (Karlie Montana) is engaged to Thomas (Ryan Driller, stuck with the James Marsden role as the cuckolded fiance), yet she can’t resist the temptation of a continuing affair with the fiery James (Steven St. Croix). Which man will she ultimately choose? We dare not spoil the ending here! Stormy Daniels shows up in a non-sex supporting role as Anna’s sister.

Private Spa
If you’re not watching Sinful XXX, you are missing out on one of porn’s best-kept secrets! They may not grab AVN headlines like Vixen’s popular videos or have the mystique of Mason‘s HardX movies, but in their own way, Sinful XXX’s efforts are just as memorable. They have somehow managed to create a lighting scheme that evokes the dimmed rooms and romance of everyone’s most intimate memories, yet there’s never any sense that we’re being shortchanged on visceral impact. There’s a temptation in porn to bathe everything in dazzling bright light to show every naughty detail. Sinful XXX moves in the opposite direction, with a play of light and shadow that brings to mind some of the great Hollywood cinematographers. A Private Spa is no exception: it bubbles with passion and eroticism as its primary players enjoy trysts in the titular getaway. It’s billed as a couples/made for women porno, but fellas, you’ll love this one, too!

A Wife With a Secret
The casual observer may sniff at the idea of checking out the director’s name before selecting a porn movie. This isn’t Hollywood, after all, and auteur theory isn’t generally thought to have extended to Porn Valley. Nevertheless, you can learn a lot about an adult film by looking to see who was in the director’s chair. Even though porn doesn’t often present the same latitude that a mainstream movie might, there is still enough room for an individual stamp of style and personality. Case in point? The always-alluring works of director, photographer, and (more recently) podcaster Holly Randall. A Wife With a Secret compiles five scenes that were not originally shot to be packaged as a unit, yet Randall’s immaculate attention to detail shines through in a way that conveys they clearly could have been directed by no one else. (Oh, and Lisa Ann — in a pre-2014 temporary retirement role — looks terrific, too, as always.)
