Not the strongest entry in this generally superb anal line, EAH17 opens with an unusually lightweight (for this series) coupling between a mildly cute brunette and director Christoph Clark. Boring!

Scene two, a hetero four-way featuring two striking blondes, is an improvement, but never really hits the boiling point. Same goes for the five-way that follows. Just as things start to get nice and demented in that fine Clark fashion, the scene ends with the pops. Talk about premature ejaculation.

Scene four at last introduces the fetish elements that are this line's trademark (the three previous scenes seem more reminiscent of Clark's now-discontinued Euro Angels line). Three babes in garden-variety kinky nurse garb get tushy-tossed by a trio of dudes, but just like the preceding scene, Clark ends things before they really hit a squalid stride. Maybe this volume should have been sub-titled Hardball Lite.

Clark blessedly returns to form in the at-times scorching closer as Sandra, a black-haired beauty in serious thigh-high fetish boots, gets d.p.'d and 3p'd by both real dick and the latex variety (including an eyeball-popping black number the size of Shaquille O'Neal's well, forearm). Now that's more like it. Pre-nom it for Best Anal Sex Scene - Video.
