So a few weeks back, I listed my Top 7 Stars (aka: who I would like to eff).
It’s about damn time I listed some favorite movies. Again, here’s the thing. These are a few of MY favorites. Not the best, but ones I like. So if you don’t like them, I don’t care. At all.
Tera Goes Gonzo
Studio: Teravision
Director: Spyder Jonez
Stars: Tera Patrick, Ron Jeremy, Evan Stone, Ed Powers, Daisy Marie, Kelle Marie, Nick Jacobs, Jack Lawrence, Spyder Jonez, Roxy Deville, Stefani Morgan
So as I was browsing our library of pornography, I realized that I had yet to do a title with the legendary Tera Patrick. While her ex-husband had been featured in Broken, I had yet to review a film with the lovely Tera Patrick. Sometimes I want to cover classic stars in their classic films, sometimes I avoid those because there are already umpteen reviews of a movie already out there, so my 2 cents doesn’t really mean spit. While Tera Goes Gonzo was a title that was nominated for 3 AVN Awards in 2009 (Best Gonzo Release, Best All-Girl 3-Way Sex Scene, Best Solo Sex Scene) and while it didn’t take home any awards, it also didn’t seem to get much press or many reviews. And it was an attempt at a little something different, tieing Tera in with the gonzo genre, bringing in one of the most recognizable names in gonzo, Ed Powers, and one of the biggest names in the business, even if it was only for non-sex roles. Her ex-husband spends time both behind and in front of the camera.
Broken
Studio: Teravision
Director: Dave Navarro
Stars: Jenna Haze, Mark Davis, Kayla Paige, Victoria Sin, Tommy Gunn, Lisa Daniels, Spyder Jonez, Marco Banderas, Sasha Grey, Audrey Bitoni
As I have said in other posts, one of the perks of this job is I can pick what I want to review. I try and be fair, vary it, but I won’t deny my personal favorites. One of those is Sasha Grey. I just think a) she is drop dead gorgeous and b) she does pretty interesting projects. I also like the fact she has crossed over a little into mainstream, while not fitting or succumbing to the clichéd pornstar role. It’s probably good for everyone. So after a rash of just bad porn (not just bad to me, but bad period) I decided to reach back into the sure and steady bin and pull out a Teravision release starring Ms. Grey.
One of the films she did back in 2008 was with rockstar turned part-time porn director Dave Navarro. Navarro’s directorial debut ended up winning an AVN for Best High End All-Sex Release. With the Jane’s Addiction guitarist at the helm it is no surprise the final product was not cookie cutter Porn Valley, which made it interesting to watch and difficult to review. I would much prefer this dilemma than having to review the same old smut.
