Island Rhythms
Island Rhythms (2003) is another dual region erotic romance made for the
couples market.
Skye Ashton and her husband are living in a tropical Caribbean paradise. (It
was actually filmed in Negril, Jamaica.) She is supporting him as a cocktail
waitress and dreams of being a photographer. He suggests she reopen an empty
hotel, and, as luck would have it, she acquires one free of charge from the
government. She enlists her friend, Amber Griebel to work with her in the
venture. Fixing it up evidently cost no money, and they soon start accepting
guests.
The first guests present challenges:
- First, a honeymoon couple arrives, and they are not getting along. In
fact, the wife, Nicola Stephenson, is a raving bitch.
- The second guest is a single guy with a hidden agenda. He wants to run the
place himself, and decides that romancing Amber Griebel is the fastest way to
get there.
Negatives: the plot is weak, the sex is tepid, and some of the sex scenes are
way too dark.
Positives: this film is mindless but pleasant. The characters are likeable
and the entire film is light and cheerful, including the ending. Valérie
Pronovost, Skye Ashton, Nicola Stephenson and three unknowns show everything,
and Amber Griebel shows breasts and buns.
C-.
It is very rare, and only available from RLDVDs.com in a dual region (1 and
4) DVD in English with optional Spanish subtitles. Click on the image below for details.
There are not enough IMDb votes to give this rarely-seen film a statistically
meaningful score.

Alone With Her
The movie is shot through the eyes and camera lenses of Doug (Colin Hanks), who begins to stalk a beautiful woman Amy (Ana Claudia Talancon). He watches her every action and slowly manipulates her
into a relationship.
I think this movie promotes stalking the women you like. In the end he gets the girl,
but of course he is so messed up that ends up killing her instead of having sex with her
... just like she wanted.
Ana Claudia is superb playing the victim here, she did a great job and
the Director also did a good job making Amy a very real character,
someone you may know.
Scoop's note: Vejiita did not do
these clips
from this film, but this seems like the right place to place them
on the page!

Lola
In this strange and interesting 2001 Indy drama from Canada, a young
woman runs away from her older lover after he becomes too demanding and
oppressive, bordering on abuse.
Wandering the streets, she meets Sandra (Joanna Going), who is leaving
the city herself to return home after the death of her father. As things
progress, Lola is confronted with a major decision, one that could be
life-changing or life-threatening.
A very unique and well-done story, with great acting. Very worthwhile.
