Simply Unforgettable---and deeply perverse---Porn, 10 August 2004
10/10
Author: superskatingmonkey (superskatingmonkey@yahoo.com) from London & NY

This is a seriously strange but powerful adult film which is very, very hard to find (in fact I can't find it presently!), possibly because of it's strong oedipal content, obvious drug-use, wildly perverted heavy bondage and general genius/insanity.

Vanessa Del Rio and Jamie Gillis are wonderful in this film, offering really intense as well as extremely funny (darkly funny) performances.

The quality of any remaining tapes may be very poor, but the premise and execution of this is simply unforgettable. One of the ten most powerful adult films ever made, and better than anything presently available with Vanessa Del Rio in it.

Will Americans ever make porn this twisted again?

Sleazy And FUN Roughie Entry That Should Be Seen By Fans Of The Genre..., 25 December 2006
8/10
Author: EVOL666 from St. John's Abortion Clinic

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

I have no real idea what the "point" of the storyline of THE FINAL TEST is - but all I know is that it's sleazy and sexy and I liked it. A solidly trashy and strange '70s roughie entry that should be checked out for fans of the genre.

A woman (Vanessa del Rio) has a "son" who's blind (from some unknown and unexplained accident), and Vanessa likes to bone her son while pretending to be the maid or whatever, supposedly unbeknownst to her son. Turns out - he's just fakin' and can actually see - so right off the bat ya got some good ol' incest themes. A side story involves an inter-racial lesbo pair who like to dildo each other with squirt bottles for a bit of sexy water-expulsion play. They also like to play B&D/humiliation games with various cats, including the "blind" son, and to get down with some vaginal DP when the opportunity presents itself. Jamie Gillis plays Vanessa's husband and he slaps around, sexually abuses, and speculumizes Vanessa with the help of a female companion. Why, you may ask? Who the hell knows - but it's fun to watch...

I don't know what kind of "test" is going on here, but THE FINAL TEST is a fine piece of trashy '70s era sleaze-porn. I typically like a bit more plot in these types of films, but the incest themes, abusive sex, the hilarious dialog (especially from the black member of the lesbo duo) and strong performances from Gillis and del Rio - especially the very realistic roughing-up of Vanessa towards the end - amp this one up quite a bit and raise it above the normal cheapo roughie fare. A definite must for genre fans - not on my list of absolute favorites, but definitely better than the average...8/10
