Insatiable (1980)

*** (out of 4)

Classic porn film has Marilyn Chambers playing the rich heiress Sandra Chase who shares her sexual adventures with us. We learn that she has a very hungry sexual appetite and one by one we see her adventures. While it's true there's not much of a "story" here, there's no question that this remains one of the most loved and most respected porn films ever made. I'd go even further to call it one of the better made features from the "golden era" where these types of films were still playing in theaters. I think the main reason for the success is due to the natural beauty of Chambers. Lets face it, porn has offered up many beautiful women from all walks of life and all different looks. However, has there ever really been anyone like Chambers before or since? She just has an incredible, natural girl-next-door look that immediately grabs your attention and obvious she can hold her own on the camera. She certainly delivers a very sexual performance here and comes across quite charming and fun. The sex scenes are all shot extremely well and there's no doubt that the majority of them are highly erotic with Chambers really going all out on each of them. The highlight or at least most notorious moment in the film happens at the end when her fantasy boy played by John Holmes gives her a workout, which leads to the now famous final shot. There's no question that this is one of the better porn films to be made and I think the natural beauty and appeal of Chambers would make it viewable even for those who don't normally watch this type of film. It's also worth noting how terrific the editing is during the opening sequence. INSATIABLE was Chambers' return to the genre and she certainly made the most out of it.
