Lilith's Notes: The House of Erika Lust provides once again.




"Destroy the tapes. All of them."

One thing I love about today’s erotic websites, nay, the whole erotic production and distribution pipeline, is that you can pretty much grab whatever you want a la carte. In the mood for a bite of amateur? Here’s 15 minutes of it produced by a quality studio, at a reasonable price. Want something artsy? Easily found, offered and enjoyed. Is your appetite whet? Well, one can usually be rest assured that XConfessions will have anything and everything delectable for your seductive consumption and satisfaction.

That’s how Kage and I spent our weekend, selecting a few offerings by XConfessions, and deciding if they’re worth the time.

One was by far the best of the set, and that’s the one we’re going to talk about this week.

Amateur Tapes

If you’re new here, I’ll explain XConfessions to you. The gimmick behind XConfessions is that real people anonymously, or not so anonymously, send a brief description of their kink to Erika Lust and her studio makes that fantasy a reality. In this confession, a woman wanted to find some illicit amateur porn that she felt she was not supposed to see. It was for the amateur’s eyes only. That’s our jumping off point.

It’s an interesting fantasy, but it feels less in line with the secret maker because she had a feminine name, and, in the short film, a man finds the illicit amateur tape and jacks off to it. It felt slightly inauthentic? Not entirely true to the spirit of the fantasy?

As for the film itself, the recreation of the early 2k amateur camcorder aesthetic is great. However, the camera is moving, implying there’s a camera man instead of the two amateurs. This sparked a discussion about intent between Kage and I. Was the tape watcher imagining the details of the disembodied floating camera? Or did the director just forget that there were only meant to be two performers on the tape and that the camera had to have been locked down in order to maintain authenticity.

And yet, as far as modern pornos go, it’s shot very well, lingers when it should, cutting when it should. All that gives the film a rhythm that I found nicely meditative. It wasn’t boring, it wasn’t redundant or cyclical, nor did it drag. It had a quiet flow to it that completely worked.

The performers were great, and, believe it or not, styled well. The woman’s hair, her anime tattoos and her pierced navel all screamed late 90s, giving the feel of a period piece, almost a sense of nostalgia, which further enhanced the vintage energy.

Best Moment: Great setup, had a very cozy vibe,

Worst Moment:The moving camera was distracting from the theme, even trying to convince us it was artistic direction to represent the viewers fantasy of being in the moment.

LILITH'S SCORE: 4/5

Until next time, my voracious voyeurs. I’m Lilith, and I’m always watching.
