A blonde interviewer from the Advanced Institute for Sexual Studies stumbles upon a bunch of horny picnickers who go out of their way to accommodate her with answers and demonstrations.

This is the setting for Licorice Twists, a hot shot-on-video feature crammed with endless interracial sex. Top quality video production and editing combine with a fine cast making for an entertaining and erotic presentation.

Ingrid Elliot plays the fair-skinned inquisitor who is welcomed with open arms and legs by her lustful subjects. Wanton sex scenes and fantasies become more torrid through the video and climax with a multi-person orgy. Good camera angles and lighting catch all the details of the lesbian and heterosexual combinations, which include oral, anal and straight sex.

My only complaints with this production center on a rather shallow plot, and the excessive yelling during sex by some of the video's female stars. I have no doubt that there are people who make this much noise during sex, but here the straining vocal cords seem amateurish and become quite annoying.

As for the plot, I feel that it could have been a little more involved. Subjects volunteer answers thereby eliminating the need for serious dialogue outside the sex scenes, and some of the lines said during sex are very corny. The erotic pace, however, carries this video, making it a sure sexual hit.
