Eon McKai understands something about porn that many directors don’t: male porn stars can be more than disembodied penises. Of course, he understands a lot of other things, too — like how to satirize art school and how to cast cute ladies — but his choice of male talent is one thing that stands out [...]

Girls Girls Girls 2 is an ’80s-inspired porno directed by the fabulous Joanna Angel. There is no plotline, just discrete scenes, and luckily, it doesn’t take the ’80s theme too far. Actually, Kimberly Kane’s crimped hair and Sasha Grey’s iridescent spandex are pretty damn hot. Penny Flame’s scene with Allister and Cadence St. John is, [...]
I hesitated in requesting Live In My Secrets. The trailer, which features relentless screams from the infamous “God Warrior” (“she’s not a Christiaaaan!”), makes the film seem very dark.

Wood is one material I’ve been lusting after for a while now, so I was ecstatic to receive the Linger, a smallish but bulbous dildo and anal probe made by NobEssence. It [...]
There’s been some hoopla and excitement surrounding this new toy company, Evolved Novelties, so when I was offered the opportunity to review one of their toys, I was too curious to say no. I received the Rhapsody, Symphony Edition (yes, they name their toys as though they are special DVDs) and it is, by most [...]
It’s tiny! A year ago, my vagina would’ve rejoiced in the size of this dildo. But now, I see a thing of this size and feel immediate disappointment. It’s only about half an inch in diameter. Smaller in diameter than a quarter. About as long as your average pen. Don’t believe me? Check out my [...]
