Image
Title: I Spit On Your Grave Year: 1978 Starring: Camille Keaton, Anthony Nichols Director:  Meir Zarchi Synopsis:  A young, beautiful career woman rents a backwoods cabin to write her first novel. Attacked by a group of local lowlifes and left for dead, she devises a horrific plan to inflict revenge. - Via Letterboxd.com Lilith's Notes: Near as I can tell, the marketing for this film is the origin of the phrase "No Jury would convict..." Buy: Amazon   "You want her total submission, you got it." Before Lilith Likes to Watch was an actual endeavor, I would sit down and force myself to endure relatively edgy films. You know, films that were banned, or low-brow, or just straight up porn. Films high society scoffed at, films that were infamous for all the wrong reasons. Films that one doesn’t mention in polite society. Don’t let your imagination run too wild. I knew my limits and I never dove into anything too terrible. I still have no interest in watching Mart

Title: Videodrome Year:  1983 Starring: James Woods, Deborah Harry Director: David Cronenberg Synopsis:   As the president of a trashy TV channel, Max Renn is desperate for new programming to attract viewers. When he happens upon “Videodrome,” a TV show dedicated to gratuitous torture and punishment, Max sees a potential hit and broadcasts the show on his channel. However, after his girlfriend auditions for the show and never returns, Max investigates the truth behind Videodrome and discovers that the graphic violence may not be as fake as he thought. - Via Letterboxd.com Lilith's Notes: You know the Cronenbergs from Rick & Morty ? This is what they're talking about. Buy: Amazon   "I was made for that show." Some films are just on the verge of suitable for Lilith Likes to Watch. Sometimes there’s not enough meat, or the film is too into it’s own politics, or I’m just bored and have nothing to say. Videodrome rides the line where I can question if it’s right fo

Title: Lucky Bastard Year:  2014 Starring: Betsy Rue, Jay Paulson, Don McManus Director: Robert Nathan Synopsis:  Lucky Bastard is a “found footage” thriller about a porn website run by Mike that invites fans to have sex with porn stars. Dave is an eager young fan given a chance to have sex with the fabulous Ashley Saint. But everyone gets more than they bargained for in the seemingly mild-mannered Dave… with gruesome results. The film is captured by the “Lucky Bastard” porn cameras for a fresh take on the “found footage” genre. - via Letterboxd.com Lilith's Notes: Found footage. You don't see that on this blog too often, now do you? Buy: Amazon "Shoot everything, never stop shooting" Anticipation is a powerful aphrodisiac. I was first exposed to this film via its trailer by Kage, and had been waiting until Halloween to watch it just so it could have a spot in this year’s Trick & Treat. Then came the main event. Was all the build up worth it? Was I satisfied?

Title: Drive Year: 2019 Starring: Angela White, Maitland Ward, Manuel Ferrara Director: Kayden Kross Synopsis:  Angela displays perfect execution in all aspects of her life until a chance encounter with a stranger makes her to face off against her own sexuality. What follows is an unraveling that pulls her out of the order of home and work and strings her along through a pulsing underground world of illicit gratification. The only thing stronger than the will of a woman who thrives on control is the part of her that breaks through once she loses it. - Via Letterboxd.com Lilith's Notes: Read the original review here . Buy: Adult Empire "Nothing is innocent and nothing is harmless." If I had known better back then, I would have realized that this movie planted seeds with me. Horrible, horrible seeds. I’m still pissed that this movie lost best art direction to Captain Marvel XXX . In 2020, my little gremlin Kage, and I were feeling ambitious. We wanted to watch and revie

It's been a long time, hasn't it? Maybe too long. I was beginning to think I'd never be here again. Miss me? Since I'm feeling a little rusty, I thought it might be fun to revisit films we had watched in the past. Do I feel the same? Have my thoughts changed? Was I unfair the first time around? Is everything just a smidge better now that I've seen some of the worst adult films know to human-kind? This September, for Lilith Likes to Watch’s anniversary, that’s exactly what we’re going to explore. In double feature! So, come and enjoy some sloppy seconds with me. First up, the film that started it all...

I know it’s not my fault because the circumstances are out of my control, but I still feel the need to apologize for the lack of updates. I know I said I’d be updating every other week, but what I didn’t realize was that it made Halloween feel so small and unloved. So in an effort to at least pack more of a punch this October, I thought I’d do a review of several movies I watched this month. They range in subject matter and quality, so this should be pretty fucking fun, right? Let’s get on with it. Title: BFFs, Naked, And Afraid Year: 2018 Starring: Ginny Woolf, Parts Authority Director: Mahx Capacity Synopsis: In April of 2017, two best friends disappeared in the woods while shooting erotic films. Best friends since birth, Parts and Ginny have no problem sleeping together… well, next to each other. After a night of ghost stories by the campfire, the two climb into bed. Overheating with nervous energy, they strip down and try to get some rest before the big shoot. But Parts aw

Little did they know, an alien was lurking in the park waiting to crawl inside. - via IMDB.com Lilith's Notes: We've never ventured into this kink before! Buy: Parasited.com "Don't let this ruin our night." Welcome, finally to this year's Halloween Trick & Treat! It's the most wonderful time of the year, and while our scope is limited this year due to circumstances beyond my control, I promise you that this year's selection of scary, sexy flicks are vast in their themes and aesthetics. We begin with some live action hentai. I have a very delicate constitution. Gross things are gross and not sexy. So I was equal parts reluctant and intrigued to watch Ricky Greenwood's Infection, part of the
