The Devil in Miss Jones Part II

Surprisingly enough I had great fun watching this movie. It's definitely more entertaining than the first movie and also has some higher production values but in the long run the movie is till being somewhat overlong.

This movie really is a direct, late, sequel to the 1973 genre classic "Devil in Miss Jones". It even features the same actress, Georgina Spelvin, in the lead again. She was now 9 years older and had obviously gained some more experience in the business. Back in 1973 she was still new and fresh to it all but in this movie she is taking things more from a professional approach and also spend some more time on her acting performance this time. But she was already well in her 40's at the time so her role is being cut a little short this time and she soon has to make some room for younger ladies. They did this in a quite good and creative way, when the devil herself sends her back to earth and she is forced to live in the bodies of several different and younger women, who of course very soon all get involved in all kinds of different sexual acts.

It was nice to see how 'serious' they approached this movie. They had obviously spend some time on writing a decent script and the movie did not just got shot at someone's back-room. They actually went to the trouble to make some costumes and sets for this movie. Nothing too impressive but it's all nevertheless still better and more expensive looking than the first movie. This movie is really a movie, which at times even goes at the expense of the sex sequences. I can definitely say that this movie has more story than sex this time.

I'm not saying that this movie is being anything brilliant but for within its genre it's simply a great one nevertheless. You really have to see these sort of movies in their perspective. You have to appreciate this movie for taking a real cinematic approach and tries to be more than just another average porn-flick.

But it's not as if the movie doesn't know that its not being much good as a movie. Even though it takes a more serious cinematic approach of things, that doesn't mean that the movie is taking itself serious as well. And this is what makes the movie so much fun to watch. It's a movie with plenty of humor and deliberately silly moments and characters in it. I won't lie, I enjoyed the movie quite a lot. The only complained is that it went on for too long. It started to drag and could had easily been cut down 10 minutes or so.

Guess that if you're really looking for some porn that this movie isn't going to be much good for you. In that regard the first movie was a better one. In this movie there are really not that many porn sequences and the ones that are in it are basically constantly more of the same, over and over again. It's also nothing too spectacular or exciting really.

A movie that is surprisingly fun and good to watch.

Yes, this movie is a slight improvement on the original as there are a couple of cute girls here and there. However, you will not be seeing very well done sex scenes in this porno, instead the movie is more of a comedy and the sex scenes for the most part are very underdeveloped. The movie is still better though than one as one had a unpleasant feel to it and just made me feel yucky. This one does not do that...granted it also does not excite or turn me on either which is what an adult film should be doing now is it not? There is one scene involving a cute gal who apparently sells household products and has very pretty eyes. I think there is about to be a great sex scene and instead I get maybe a two minute scene max. I do not really like the porno movies that are just sex scene after sex scene with no real development or lead up, but I prefer them to this type of film that is mainly all lead up and no real payoff. I understand you want to have plot too, but I have seen plots in porn where there is still really good sex like in the Little Girls Blue and to a lesser extent Debbie Does Dallas. These Devil in Miss Jones movies just do not appeal to me or to the bad boy I was who found their dad's dirty movie collection.

The first DMJ was a classic movie...a really thought provoking artistic acheivement ..well not really it was after all just a porno but it was made alot better than porno should have been made but DMJ II...this is just a lotion movie..if you get what I mean..the women of course look lovely and the sex action is erotic..and hillarious the scene between Jack Wrangler and Georgina Spelvin (who looks LOVELY) had me on the ground laughing as well as the scene between Jacqueline Lorians and Bobby Astyr..now thats entertainment..but the humor almost seems..strange when the first one was such a strange and horrific tale of lust and horror. I guess this is the Evil Dead II of porno..so enjoy it for what it is..and don't forget to clean up

7.5/10

Bearing in mind that the first DMJ gained such rave reviews and maybe a cult following, it does seem surprising that it took nearly ten years for its sequel to hit the screens. This second film eschews much of the seriousness and horror of the first film and is played mostly for laughs, mainly at the expense of Jack Wrangler's Lucifer. The production values are high when one sees the sets and costumes designed for the film. For a porn film, there is surprisingly little hard porn, though it has to be said that what does appear should keep porn fans happy. A (fairly) slim-line Ron Jeremy makes an appearance as does Joey Silvera.

The film partially succeeds because of the humour written into the film as Georgina Spelvin shows her comedic talents: the scene with Lucifer and Justine,with Justine referring to him as "Luci" sets the tone. The women also stand out, especially Jacqueline Lorians as Roxanne - she has got to be one of the most beautiful women in the porn industry. Also see Anna Ventura turn from Tupperware salesgirl into a sales girl who sells more adventurous commodities. The weakest performance has got to be Jack Wrangler who goes through the script but lacks the thespian inspiration.

Overall, the film is fun to watch with gorgeous women and some good lines and it is the sort of porn film that would not be made nowadays, but even so, it could have been a lot more. The DVD from VCA runs for just over 81 minutes.

The sequel to the revolting Devil in Miss Jones really isn't all that bad. Many scenes work quite well, and the more unpleasant elements of the first film are nowhere to be found.

Though Pachard's visual style isn't anything terribly special, it's on a level with many respectable films of the same period. The use of special effects is unusually well-handled for a pornographic film from 1982, and the makeup is a noticeable improvement over the original.

As it turns out, Georgina Spelvin isn't nearly as ugly as she looked in the first movie. The performances in this film are average for the most part. Their are no really aggravating moments, but not many truly inspired moments either. Joanna Storm's small role as a young soldier is impressive, but no other actors stand out.

Even though the film gets points for not being as bad as its predecessor, it's still a very limited picture with no real ambition.
