It’s about as rare as a Republican on an anti-Bush picket line to see something in a porn movie that’s truly both innovative and indelible. But director/producer Rebecca Lord delivers just that in Do Not Disturb, her breathtaking reemergence as a XXX auteur.

The AVN Hall of Famer, one of the biggest international adult stars to come out of the 1990s, is no stranger to the director’s chair—she’s sporadically helmed projects for a number of top studios throughout the past two decades. With Do Not Disturb, however, she stakes an unquestionable new claim for herself as an erotic artist to be reckoned with.

The five mostly dialogue-free scenarios here have wildly different settings, but each is visually exhilarating in its own way. Without a doubt the most awe-inspiring of the five—and the one for which this movie will be best remembered—is the finale between blonde sexpot Gina Gerson and Euro-stud Rico Simmons partially staged on an actual helicopter flight.

With a sprawling canvas of sea and landscape rolling along far below them, Gerson and Simmons make some electrifying nookie in the copter’s ultra-confined passenger quarters without removing their respective garb—his a business suit and hers a stewardess uniform. Simply pulling his cock out through his fly, Gerson gives Simmons a few moments of sky head before yanking her own panties aside to climb on and commence bouncing. She also gives him a brief footjob and bounces on him some more in reverse cowgirl, followed by longer stretches of dick-licking and unspeakably hot cowgirl riding. This brings them to the ground, where they continue their fuck first inside then spilling out of the copter, and finally move to a dilapidated hangar nearby to finish getting their respective jollies. All in all, this scene is one of those landmark pieces of pornmaking not soon to be forgotten by anyone who encounters it.

Very nearly as noteworthy, though, is another scene in a moving transport—this time a limo, with exotic beauty Tiffany Doll and veteran swordsman Neeo indulging their carnal cravings during the ride. The opening scene is not to be overlooked either; pairing reigning AVN Female Foreign Performer of the Year Anissa Kate with young buck Lutro, it employs a really arresting technique of projecting the action on a giant video screen behind the two as they’re providing it.

While not as creatively ambitious as the rest, the remaining two scenes, featuring perennially popular Czech starlet Carla Cox and newcomer Kari, are both very gorgeous and very hot by any estimation.

Do Not Disturb is certainly one of the most impressive all-sex movies of the past year, if not the past several years. If Rebecca Lord continues to produce fare like this … well, all we can say is look out, world.
