"The Erotic Dreams of Jeannie"
The Erotic Dreams of Jeannie (2004) is a Fred Onlin Ray erotic farce inspired by the I Dream of Jeannie TV show. He never believed a red blooded American male would refuse sex with Jeannie, and foxes that here. Jeannie was played by porn actress Nicole Sheridan, who, it turns out, can act. I found myself bored to tears during the seemingly endless simulated sex scenes, but really enjoying the few moments of plot and dialogue. Jeannie and her male counterpart were banished to containers in Moronico for having sex. Years centuries later, they are discovered by an Army major. He releases Jeannie, and his fiancee's girlfriend releases the male genie.
The girlfriend (Kennedy Johnston) is really after his money and is in a lesbian relationship with her roommate (Beverly Lynne). She tries to hide Jeannie and her bottle, but Jeannie escapes, and, after an episode with a dominatrix ( Dolorian), comes back to save the day. Dolorian and Lynne show breasts and buns, Johnston gives a 3 B performance, and Sheridan shows everything including open crotch shots.
IMDb has not yet heard of this masterpiece. Ray wrote this in three days, and shot it and another film, using the same actors, in one week. The DVD includes a feature length commentary with Ray and his wife. As a skinemax erotic farce, this one is very good, with all of the girl/girl/guy pairings possible, and lots of nudity, and hence a C+. I wish Ray had taken twice the budget, spent two weeks, and developed this as a comedy. What humor was there was very funny, and all of the cast were good enough to carry it off.

Last Rites (1988):
COMPLETE SPOILERS:
Could there be any more irritating thriller device
than this ...
One character says to another. "I just can't believe
that your running into me was a coincidence. I'm not stupid."
Then the first character, a male (in this case a priest), falls for
the second character (a gorgeous dancer), and forgets about the
perfectly sound logic that led him to make that statement in the
first place.
It is galling to me that the author actually knew the
biggest plot hole and, instead of changing it to something more
believable, actually inserted the criticism into the script, turning
one of the characters into a movie critic!
The precise situation in question was this. A woman
who had witnessed a murder went to confession, and it just so
happened that the priest was (1) the best friend of the murder
victim (2) the brother of the murderess! I suppose by having the
priest say "of all the confessionals in all the cities in all the
world, she had to walk into mine", the director was trying to defuse
a situation which could lead to some ugly comments, but he failed.
Roger Ebert made all the expected ugly comments anyway, then
proceeded to give the film a perfect score of NO stars.
As it probably deserved.
Roger Ebert also seemed to be offended by the
cavalier way in which the film used a priest's sexual indiscretions
to advance the plot. I suppose that point must have seemed more
important and more offensive in 1988, when Ebert wrote his review.
Now it seems that the Church would probably be relieved that the
priest's indiscretions involved a willing adult female. (On the
other hand, the dialogue also implies that the priest, when a young
man, lost his virginity to his evil Mafia sister. I know that the
Lord is all-forgiving, and that many priests must have pre-vow dirty
laundry, but I suppose the
Church still might be concerned about a film which portrays a priest
having committed incest
with his murderous teenage sister, even if it did happen before he
took his vows.)
There was actually one more plot hole as well - in
fact, a very
similar one - that bothered me even more than the one I described
above. After the
fortuitous confession, the woman agrees to meet with the priest. She does not
show up for their assignation, but a taxi driver shows up and brings
the priest to the dancer. It turns out
that the impoverished
dancer is living in a very nice artist's garret which is accented by
many beautiful naked paintings of her, pictures in the colorful
Mexican style, which encompass her
entire life from her puberty in Mexico to the present day in New York.
The artist and the dancer are living together in New York, and are from the same village
in Mexico. Logically enough, the priest asks
her if the artist is her lover, and she refuses to answer. He
then mutters some movie cliché like "if I'm going to help you, I need to
ask some hard questions." Yes, all that is true, but he never does
get the answer to that question, because if he had, there would have
been no movie!!! The artist remains unseen through another 65
minutes of plot twists that lead to the very Mexican village where
the artist and his model grew up.
Once again, the priest sees the plot hole, and asks
the right question, but
ignores it. (Meaning, of course, that the scriptwriter did the
same.) The priest never does follow up on that question. He never
does ask her why she needs a priest to take her back to her village
when she is living with a famous artist from that very village. Now
does it take a genius to figure out that the artist must figure into
the plot in some unmentioned way? If you really watch a lot of these
films, you might also figure out that the amazingly well-informed
taxi driver is more than he is pretending to be, particularly after
he conveniently fills in some missing plot exposition by giving the priest a
biography of the dancer, as the two men talk during the long ride
from the cathedral to the garret.
Why, it almost seems that that the taxi driver might
even be from the same part of Mexico, in fact that he might know the
dancer very well ... say, you don't think? ... NAH!!
I have no trouble forgiving a scriptwriter for
missing some details in a noir thriller. Raymond Chandler was
probably the all-time greatest writer of these types of stories, and
even the great Chandler screwed up some stuff in The Big Sleep so
badly that he couldn't remember who killed one of the characters
when he was asked that question by the director. To make matters
worse, he still couldn't figure it out when he re-read his own
story! Let's face it, it is very, very difficult to write these
stories, and the authors will make errors. That I can understand and
forgive. What tests my patience beyond the breaking point, however,
is when the author obviously knows he has two plot holes and tries
to bullshit around them instead of simply fixing them. That's just
sloppy.
In addition to logical gaps, the film has also all sorts
of editing and scripting failures. Characters are dropped.
Situations are resolved without explanation. In one scene, Daphne
Zuniga goes from having a towel wrapped around her, to reaching up
for the towel, and back to having the towel wrapped around her. The
editor simply inserted some footage into the wrong place, and nobody
noticed.
And you are just not going to believe Daphne Zuniga's
on-again off-again Mexican accent. Although she looks like she might
be a beautiful (albeit exceptionally tall) Mexican woman, and her
father is Guatemalan so she may even speak Spanish, she was born and
raised in California, and that is obvious in the way she speaks
English. Ms. Zuniga is stunningly beautiful, and her acting for the
most part is workmanlike, but accents are obviously not her thing.
It's a very sloppy movie, in very many ways, and you probably want
to skip it unless you are really a genre nut.

. Now in her forties and still
beautiful, Daphne is now insisting that she will not do nudity, and has
always been too shy to do nude scenes. While it is obvious that
some of the nudity in this film could have been done by body
doubles (the last two collages and a shower scene not shown
here), it is equally obvious that some of it was done by
Zuniga (the other collages). I mean there is her face and there are her naughty bits
(breasts and pubic area), all in the same shot. I would sure as
hell like to hear her explanation for that.

Words from Scoop.
.avi's from Shiloh.
.wmv files made by Scoop from Shiloh's .avi's.
NOTE: because of a unique combination of
circumstances with the Windows media player and some substantial
bandwidth theft, we will have to do all of our movie files in zip
format. Left click on the files as you normally would to view a
picture. When
you get a choice, click on "save", and put it on your hard drive in
the directory of your choice. UnZIP and play from there.
I know this is not especially convenient, but it
allows the film clips to continue. I can protect .zip files from
hot-linking in the same way I can protect still images. For some
reason, if I protect .avis and .wmvs from hot-linking, they will not
play in the Windows media player, and I can't get a satisfactory
work-around. Perhaps I will find a better solution, but for now this
new policy allows you to continue getting the movie clips you want
to see, which is much preferable to my abandoning the clips
altogether.
The Door in the Floor (2004)
Not the best quality, but here are Basinger's three
sex scenes in the John Irving adaptation
Perhaps these tips will help if you have trouble
with the codecs for these movies:
Shiloh says:
FYI when I hypercam vids to make the file size smaller I use
DivX MPEG-4 Fast-Motion for the video compressor, then I use
virtualdub to compress the audio. The properties for the
vids says the video codec: DivX Decoder Filter & audio
codec: Morgan Stream Switcher which I'm not familiar with.
When I compress the audio with virtualdub I use MPEG
Layer-3. A friend of mine told me about compressing the
audio about (6) mos. ago. Like I said previously, only been
capping for a year & a half & I'm no expert. Hopefully this
info will help members with the proper codecs for my vids.
When I cap big brother's I use hypercam mostly & sdp &
asfrecorder if the set up allows me. I stopped using
camtasia cause the file sizes were always too big, could
never figure out the process, over my head lol, plus it cost
too much to buy in my opinion.
A reader says:
You mentioned that some users were
having trouble with the videos on your site. There is a tool
designed to determine what codec is needed for a video.
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ Hope this is useful to you
or your users.
Scoop says:
I made the .wmv versions of each video. The codecs for these: Windows Video V8, Windows Audio 9.
The upside of these is that you know the codecs, and they'll play in
the Windows Media Player. The downside is that they are slightly
larger, and slightly lower quality.

"Frankenfish"
Let's get the criticism out of the way first. Frankenfish (2004) is a typical B-movie horror/comedy flick about genetically engineered fish who get loose and run amuck, killing everything in site. It's dumb, lame, and also a lot of fun.
When people start showing up dead in the Louisiana swamps, apparently eaten by something, a medical examiner and a wildlife expert are sent in to figure it out. It turns out the fish are a mutant type of Chinese Snakeheads, known to be vicious and able to leap onto land and live for extended periods.
The two experts team with locals living in the swamp to try and deal with the fish, but things go badly and people turn into fish food at an alarming rate. One line from the movie kind of says it all: "You look great for a girl covered in giant fish brains." Youbetcha.
Naturally, to make this a complete B-movie, the producers were kind enough to throw in some gratuitous nudity which was totally superfluous to the story, out of context, and made no sense, but hey, the boobs were big. A great choice for an evening when you're looking for a fun, no-brainer monster flick.
