# La Dolce Vita Hotel
c 32 1995 Private (Odyssey), Frank Thring
. Barbarella (Angellina) Caramelle (Gina), David Perry (Luigi)
. Claire Orhidea (Isabella), Franseco
. Shalimar (Maria), Claire Orhidea, John
. Angela (Babette), John A, Bruno
. Caramelle, Claire Orhidea, (Frank Thring)
. Caramelle, Maria, Bruno
. Blonde B, Dave Perry
. Blonde B, Jane A
. Caramelle, et al (orgy)

Plot: Three sister own a hotel.  Unless they can come up with $200K fast.
      they will lose it.  They decide to offer "special" services to
      rich clients to make some quick cash.

This video appears to have been in shot Italy, but almost all the dialogue
is in English.  I liked that.  Sometimes their English "is a not so good",
but it's understandable and much better than my Italian.  The accents
are kind of sexy.  I don't know why.

Editing was a bit choppy.  (Maybe because things had to be cut for the USA
version?) and the lighting in the orgy scene is not very good (dim with
flashing disco lights), but there's plenty of sex, and it shot much better
than the rest of the dreck I saw this week.

Frank Thring does a cute little Benny Hill bit (Chasing the girls around
dressed up in child-like clothes to funny music with the video sped up).  He
catches them and they play with some girl toys.

There's actually some credits, so I was able identify some of the actresses.
Of note:

Carmelle: A cute young looking blonde with short hair.

Shalimar: A thin woman with shoulder-length dark hair (permed).
          Reminded me a little of Andie McDowell (Four Weddings & a Funeral,
          Groundhog Day).

# Girls and Guns
c 28 1992 Midnight, Steve Drake
. Brandy Alexandre, Mike Horner {p.M|D;e.F}
. Bridgette Aime, Steve Drake {p.Rc|D;e.Bu}
. Greta Carlson, Tanya Rivers
. Bridgette Aime, Mike Horner (p.Rc|D;e.Bu}
. Malia, Steve Drake {p.M|Rc|D;e.F}
% Whitney Prescott, Tabitha Rogers

Plot: 5 Girls go to gun school (Desert Storm Commando Training)
      Mike Horner is the owner.  Steve Drake is the Commandant.

I rented this hoping I might get to see Tanya Rivers have sex with a man.
No such luck.  None of the girls in the class actually perform sex (except
g/g between Greta and Tanya), and none of their instructors (3 guys with
British/Austrailian accents) do either.  It's weird.

The video quality is poor, and the sex scenes are pretty uninspired.
Bridgette Aime does two scene and they are virtually identical.  The last
scene pretty short.

This is the first Brandy scene I've watch since she came on-line.  It
felt kind of weird watching her after reading so many posts from her.  
There a scene of her firing a snub-nose 38 revolver, then she
has sex with Mike Horner.  Brandy has a great smile and sweet voice, but
her face is definitely not cover-girl material (sorry).  On the other hand,
I think her body is just gorgeous.

There's a long scene of the women (not Brandy) shooting some high-powered
weapons (hand-guns, assault rifles, shotguns), topless at times.  Kind of
sexy in a weird way.  There's another long scene of the women doing
some calisthenics.

Give this one a pass.  Unless seeing women shooting firearms really turns
you on.

# Twin Freaks
c 27 199? Zane, Jay Cobb
. Mona Lisa, Tom Byron {p.D;e.Bu}
. Mona Lisa, Tami Monroe
. Alicia Rio, Chris News
. Nicole London, Ron Jeremy, Napolean
. Tami Monroe, Jane A, Tom Byron

Plot: Bad take off on Twin Peaks.  Something about screaming trees.

Scene 1: Agent Cooper (Tom Byron) and the Log Lady (Mona Lisa) in a
         one position yawner.

Scene 2: Mona Lisa, Tami Monroe.  Straight-forward girl/girl.  OK I thought.

Scene 3: Alicia Rio, Chris News.  Could have been a great scene, but is
         ruined by poor angles and editing.

Scene 4: The one-armed man (Ron Jeremy), and Napolean do the all-natural
         Nicole London.  (I wish she hadn't her ruined sleek figure).

Scene 5: Byron, Monroe and an uncredited Asian female.  Ends with
         Titty fuck for Monroe.  Looks like this was before Monroe
         second or third  breast enhancement.  They actually look
         pretty nice.

The image quality is good, but the camera angles and editing suck.  For
example in scene 3, Rio and News do reverse cow-girl, but there only one
full-body shot.  It's brief and non-explicit (shot from the side).  The
rest is head shots, intercut with genital close-ups.  In fact all the
positons are shot like this.  It could have been a really good scene, which
makes it that much more disappointing and frustrating.

The cable market is ruining US porn.
