Key to My Pussy

  • May 20, 2025
  • Too many reissues

    Adult Time has reissued a vignette twice in just two days on its never-ending stream of "New" VOD releases.

    On May 20th came the VOD "Your Stepmom F*cked Me" and on May 21st we have "Key to My Pussy". Both feature the scene titled "Where's the Key?" from 2018, already appearing in 2022 on the DVD: "A Pleasant Moment with Mom". Kenzie Taylor is gathering up the family laundry (a very popular pastime in porn for some reason known only to hack screenwriters) and finds a dildo, tube of lube and even handcuffs in stepdaughter Scarlett Sage's bedroom.

    Kenzie's angry, and accuses the teen of having sex with boys, horror of horrors. Scarlett keeps denying it but Kenzie uses the handcuffs to control the kid and then, oddly enough, starts tickling Scarlett all over as punishment, supposedly a method to get her to confess. (Ah, porno kinks must be served.)

    Two other retread scenes include: "My Stepdaughter Is a Squirter". Issued on the DVD "Mom's Squirting Condition". Christie Stevens as MILF is beautifully styled and photographed as she has sex with her stepdaughter Zoey Monroe, with Monroe handling all the wet stuff. Scene was shot at porn's attractive and oft-used "Immoral Proposal" mansion.

    "The Nap", a segment previously released on the DVD "Shared Experience", features Alexis Fawx as stepmom who wakes up blonde daughter Riley Anne from a nap with incestuous sex the result.

    Wet Wet Wet

  • May 20, 2025
  • Stars galore

    Really big names populate this Adult Time compilation on VOD of material dating back about 7 years.

    "My Imaginary Lesbian Friend" appeared on the DVD "Overnight Foreplay". It is an erotic fantasy straight out of "The Twilight Zone". After an extraneously kinky opening displaying a fetish of producer Bree (Riley Reid urinating on the toilet in tight closeup), superstar Riley talks to an imaginary friend Carter Cruise she sees in her mirror.

    The friend magically comes to life and they make love, leading to a predictable shock ending - predictable because this is a rather simple-minded fantasy, credited like the other segments to a story submitted by a member of one of Bree's websites. Fortunately, young porn veterans Carter and Riley make the sex interesting.

    The other two scenes were shot at porn's popular location, the "Immoral Proposal" mansion, both featuring squirting by girls having sex on the brown leather couch there. "The Bachelorette Gets Wet" was issued on the DVD "Oops I Squirted!". Queen of Squirt, Adriana Chechik, attending a bachelorette party for Abella Danger, with the stripper invited to the festivities being Luna Star. Luna gives a lap dance and then squirts a line drive nearly hitting the camera, outdoing even Chechik and certainly more than Danger's subtle approach to the phenomenon.

    "The Squirting Stranger" is a somewhat comical demonstration of voluminous "fountains of squirt" executed by uninhibited Christy Love and Zoey Monroe. Scene opens with Christy seeking refuge and a phone after car trouble, with Zoey fetching her a glass of water (the porn "hint" about the real source of the squirt).
    The Brutalist

  • An amazing performance in a misguided film

    For three hours, we witness Adrien Brody creating an indelible character as Laszlo the innovative architect who is a refugee immigrant to the USA in 1947. His performance literally dominates this indie feature, with excellent supporting turns by Guy Pearce as his benefactor and in the second half of the movie (post-intermission) Felicity Jones as his wife.

    The overall movie and even a central theme of the creative artist protecting the integrity of his work suggests "The Fountainhead", Ayn Rand's famous novel successfully given the Hollywood treatment in 1949 with Gary Cooper in the lead. The contrast between King VIdor's traditional approach and "Brutalist" director Brady Corbet's often heavy-handed direction is stark.

    I had no trouble with the length of the movie, but the self-indulgent sex and drug elements of melodrama are not well-integrated into the main theme, coming off as arbitrary and pretentious plot devices. (Proof of this is that the Epilogue plays just as well if these elements had not been present in the screenplay, leaving only the conflict between artist and "benefactor".) A tighter approach to pacing and staying with the main subject matter would have made for a better film.

    Also, once we look beyond the three name-talent lead roles, the supporting cast is quite weak, especially several characters such as Brody's Pennsylvania cousin and Pearce's one-dimensional son. Both of these characters become typical straw men who impede Laszlo's progress as he "heroically" tries to survive in America.
