A decade ago Adam & Eve had an Independent porn division (while Vivid also had a special section for alternative product) that handled pretentious alt-porn releases, and this followup to the "Marriage 2.0" release from Frisco filmmakers is similar in content. The short videos encapsuled here are not ready for prime time.
One that gave me a deja vu moment is "The Game", starring Mona Wales and Mickey Mod, that instantly reminded me of their A & E movie "The Luck of the Draw". I went back and watched that one over again, and it turns out that "The Game" plays like a deleted sex vignette saved from the cutting room floor, with a few seconds of overlap footage in which we see the deck of cards with sexual instruction written on each of them. So this short film is actually the set-up used for the title premise of the feature release.
I enjoyed the little romance between MILF Wales and can't act worth a lick Mod, which following the rules of their little card game forced him to admit lovely Roxanne Rae in a menage a trois with them. The value here consists of reinstating Roxanne's performance, as she was cut entirely from "The Luck of the Draw".
Another short was previously released, "Couch Surfing", shown in two different versions with the editing producing drastically different structures and meanings, but in a lost cause. This short starring Dane Cross (looking terrible, as his mainstream career as MILF magnet has ground down to a halt) with cute Nora Belle aka Emma Snow and Ms. Andre Shakti guesting as a dominatrix is horrible.
Most of these shorts were made by the team of Paul Deeb and Magnus Sullivan, who fail to impress me on any level - film school drop-out poseurs I would guess. "Gonzo Girls" is a stupid and very badly shot satire of the casting couch with the obvious reversal that women are in charge and males debased. Shakti stars again, alongside the interesting newcomer Ingrid Mouth and butch lesbian icon Jiz Lee, who stoops here (or extends her range?) to boy/girl action.
Padding out the show is an in-house junker "Being Single", lame romantic comedy with Mod as wooden as usual trying to romance currently hot Black starlet Ana Foxxx with material that was stale 40 or 50 years ago. House hack Alex Ladd at A & E directed that one.
