>Last night my SO and I watched Edwin Durall's Dreamgirls.  We weren't very
>impressed, considering the favourable reviews it has received

I agree, it didn't live up to the advanced billing.  The videography was
nice, but the sex was mostly lukewarm.  Still, the scene Melissa Melendez
was nice, and the scene with Candi Evans was OK too.  Taije Rae's scene
was not very good, I think.  Neither was Amber Lynn's.

Melissa Melendez is one of my all-time favorites.  She has a naturally soft
and well-rounded figure with curves in all the right places.  Her jet black
hair contrasts beautifuly with her translucent complexion.  Her large,
sleepy brown eyes are the definition of "bedroom eyes."  Add to that her
sensuous, inviting smile, and she truly is a dream girl.

>Now for my question.  Which other movies does Melissa Menendez appear in?

Melissa doesn't seem to have made that many videos, and unfortunately
most of them (that I've seen) were not top quality productions.
The Adam Film World Guide says she appeared in over 50 release, but
just try to find them.

I personally have seen:

1=Amber's Peter Meter (46)
	First time I saw Melissa.  She has a lovely scene with Scott Irish,
    too bad the video quality was poor.
1 Tastes Like Candy 2 (52)
1+Let's Get It On With Amber Lynn (77/4V 1987 VCA, Alex deRenzy)
	A pretty good movie all around.  deRenzy is usuall good.
	Melissa has a scene with Brittany Striker and John Lesle.
	The scene ends with a nice facial for Brittany and Melissa.
3 Pretty Peaches 2 (52/4V/4E 1987 VCA, Alex deRenzy)
    I don't remember this one being that great, despite the reviews.
1 Babyface 2 (57/4V/4E 1987 VCA, Alex deRenzy)
    A little better, but still didn't live up to the reviews, I think.
3 Scandals: Melissa Melendez (35)
	A pretty poor compilation tape.
1 Tight Squeeze (31 AVC)
	Total garbage.
1 Nasty Girls 2 (57 Plum)
	An Anthony Spinelli compilation.  Not great.
1 Edwin Durell's Dream Girls (53/4E 1987 VCA, Edwind Durell)
	See above.
2 Marina Vice (53)
	John Holmes is in this.  I believe he had a scene with Melissa, but
	obviously not that memorable.
2 Prince of Beverly Hills (82/2H/2E 1987 Video Exclusives, Bill Blackman)
1 Lover's Lane (53)
2=Swedish Erotica, Volume 66 (56)
	1 hour tape.  I liked the four-way (really a 2x2)
	with Melissa and Billy Dee and Lois Ayers and Tom Byron.
    I think both cum shots are facials.  There's also a lesbian scene
    with just Melissa and Lois outdoors.
2 Innocent Taboo (53)
	Melissa Melendez, Peter North
1+Anal Encounters 2 (56/3H 1991 VCA, William Black)
	Melissa had put on a little weight when she returned to XXX in 1991,
	but she was still lovely.
	She has an very nice scene with Peter North.
	He does her anally and finish the scene 
	by frosting Melissa's sun glasses.
1 Peggy Sue (55 1987 Video Team, John T. Bone)
1 Anal Encounters 3 (57/3V 1991 VCA, William Black)
2+Dr. Penetration (54/4V/4E 1986 Wet, Alex DeRenzy)
	A Classic of sorts.  Melissa does the Lobster Monster (Dick Rambone).
1 Starship Intercourse (53/2E 1988 Exclusives, John T. Bone)
1 Debbie, Class of '88 (56/3V 1987 C2C, Bob Vosse)
2 The Sweat Shop (52/3W 1991 EVN, Jourdan Alexander)
3 Mardi Gras (56 1986 Essex)

I really recommend only the films marked with '+' and '=".
The rest are only average at best, even with Melissa Melendez.

Key:

n Title ([Ratings] [Year] [Video Company], [Director])

The number in the first column indicates the number of scenes
in which the star in question appears.

Explanation of ratings: 

My rating comes first.  The scale is [1-9][1-9].  The first digit rates
overall quality, the second digit rates the erotic quality. 

11-19  Worst
21-39  Poor
41-69  Average (Fair - Good)
71-89  Very Good
91-99  Best

I also include the Adam Film World Rating and the Hustler Erotic Video if
available (separated by slashes).  Adam gives films one to five stars and
an erotic rating of cold, warm, hot or volcanic (denoted 2H,3W,4V, etc).
Hustler gives erection ratings, limp, 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, fully erect (denoted
0E,1E,2E,3E, or 4E).
