If this video is supposed to be making a case for more women directors (Carolyn Monroe) in the adult business, it has missed the mark completely. But if it's meant to suggest that video producers such as the one portrayed by Ron Jeremy be terminated without prejudice, you'll get no argument from a lot of people — most of them actresses.

Actually Jeremy and Monroe are pretty decent in their respective roles — Monroe gets a more substantive part than she normally does — and Jeremy handles the scum-sucking chores as second nature. Unfortunately, Monroe's director character is shrill and requires her to yell out incessant banalities like, "my life is a sound stage!" True enough, since most of the action takes place on a sound stage, and judging from the looks of it, a lot more upscale than what you normally see in this business.

Sexually speaking, you've got some first class ass scenes including a pounder between Chrissy Ann and Cal Jammer that grabs your attention from the get-go; and don't miss Carolyn getting it up the wazoo.

Lorrin Mick, besides lending her able butt to the proceedings, gets a scene stealer as the "ingenue" who tries to get hired by Jeremy. Jeremy's comeuppance is rollick-some, and viewers should find Shoot To Thrill well worth their time. A sharp-looking production and a fetching boxcover.
