WPINK-TV: Its Red Hot!!
(1985)

Jeremy at his best (or worst)
I'd show this movie first to someone who had never seen or heard of Ron Jeremy - he's in full-swing in this movie (literally at times) and has a strong and attractive supporting cast to back him. After the opening scene where we meet Jeremy - a disgruntled TV station employee - and his girlfriend Christy Canyon, they decide to 'take over' the station when it's closed at night, to broadcast something much more interesting than the usual TV dross: porn. Along with a trusty band of helpers, they achieve their task and put to air a variety of short programmes and sketches, all involving sex in some form. One of these is a 'guess the mystery guest' contest with three females trying to do so through contact with his penis. Harry Reems plays a government agent sent to the station to infiltrate it and find out what's going on, but becomes enravelled in an orgy that itself is broadcast. The actors do a reasonable job, and the sex scenes work well, but Jeremy dominates the movie with his wisecracking humour.

Those Young Girls
(1984)

One of the hottest porn films of the 80s
Seldom seen, but a classic piece of erotica - if you can find it. The plot is flimsy as expected, but the sheer quality of the cast makes this both an entertaining and stimulating piece of pornography. Traci Lords and Ginger Lynn both look incredibly beautiful and young, but not *that* young (in fact Ginger looks the junior of the two) while Reems and Holmes bring their usual presence to the movie. While living with her Svengali screen partner Reems, Traci meets up with old school friend Ginger and gives her a 'guiding hand' into the industry. Ginger's first appointment is with eagle-eyed porn agent Holmes, who tells her "You have no experience, no portfolio and no agent - you're probably perfect for this business!" After the deal is 'closed' on Holmes' desk, Ginger gets into the swing of the erotica industry, before shooting a scene with Reems that extends into the bedroom. Reems' girlfriend Traci finds out about it, and angrily confronts Ginger, before they kiss and make up - in the spa - and then extract some measure of revenge on poor Harry. The true value of this movie is in the celebrity of its four major stars, and particularly the attractiveness of the two female leads (80s fashion and hairstyles notwithstanding). The sex scenes are convincingly played and not as unrealistic or staged as in most erotica.

Porn in the U.S.A.
(1986)

A mixed-bag in terms of quality
A loose conglomeration of porn scenes, probably from other movies, strung together in the form of a 'current affairs' program with Foxx and Drake as the hosts. There are about eight scenes in all, and the quality of both filming, acting and actors is variable. Traci Lords plays a secretary who takes dictation from her boss; a door-to-door salesman finds only a willing schoolgirl at home; an older woman gives a teenage boy a lesson or two; there are hillbillies, an underwater sex scene complete with SCUBA gear, and even the two hosts are swept up in the sexual goings-on at the end of the compilation scenes. It's not a great porn flick, but by no means the worst.
