It's been nearly a decade since the salad days of Seduction/After Hours Cinema, when Misty Mundae was a fresh-faced novelty and their seemingly endless stream of softcore lesbian videos were making hay. LES CHIC 2 dates from that era and is an OK hardcore offering.
It's based on a routine Nick Millard porn film of 30 years earlier in which Ric Lutze exaggerated his usual slave collar/goofy personality enough to become campy & effeminate, while still delivering his cocksman expertise. For the remake Dean Paul goes one step further into embarrassment-land.
He plays a horny voyeur running a record store, with the gimmick that downstairs is a room called the "shagpit" where girls go to have lesbian sex or masturbate, and he gets to watch. Setting is already dated 8 years later, because even though vinyl is far from dead thanks to collectors realizing its enduring quality & value, stores like this out of Nick Hornsby's HIGH FIDELITY have been fading away fast.
One's reaction to LES CHIC 2, as long as you don't choke on Paul's horrible epileptic attempts at physical comedy, will depend on the girls. There's stalwart Darian Caine, who I still prefer to her mainstream lookalike Megan Fox: she masturbates and has a lesbian scene. Zoe Moonshine, the most elusive (and underutilized) of regulars in the Seduction Cinema stable, is given a good showcase here for fans of her admittedly anorexic look and stubby nipples.
Alisha Angel, star (under her alternate moniker Isadora Edison) of Joe Sarno's finale SUBURBAN SECRETS, is alluring in both a solo turn and a hardcore with dildos bout matched with Juliette Charles, a porn performer with awfully fake looking breasts, who not surprisingly never got her career off the ground.
It remains a mystery how director William Hellfire makes a living. I see his name credited on many of the interstitial interview videos (e.g., Nick Millard speaks) for this company, and he cranked out dozens of amateur videos over the past decade starring Misty and her pals, but he has never demonstrated an iota of talent, as either pornographer, documentarian or comedy helmer.
