That Kylie Ireland really is Twisted as Fuck.

She may have had a more wholesome girl next door image when entering the industry a decade ago, but with 2004's The Whore Next Door (Platinum X Pictures) and now this, she's revealing a considerably more bent side. Kylie's become a true blue - or is that black and blue? - perv and it shows throughout this uncommonly harsh (that's meant as a compliment, btw), darkly distinctive, boundary-pushing, hard-edge-meets-real-deal BDSM vignette title.

The kidnapping-themed opener, a rough Taryn Thomas/Brian Surewood/Joe Friday/Jenner air-tightening, is solid stroke fodder, but the real kinkiness starts in scene two, entitled "Harsh Mistress," with nasty Nicki Hunter as the very convincing title character, topping Christian and Kylie in a dungeon, then having him fuck both their asses. What an awesome bitch.

The way over-the-top "Miss Diagnosis" is next, a medical scene which has Tory Lane at her most outlandish as Sandra Romain works her over with dils, medical clamps, nipple suction cups and other intimidating implements. Tory's ear-bloodying screams, including the porn whore war cry - "Oh my fucking God" - are more horror film than XXX, but this is an outrageously intense spectacle that stays with you nonetheless. Not for the squeamish, for sure.

Scene four, the most stylish, set in a 1940ish hotel room, has Joel Lawrence slicing open a clear plastic body bag with a knife, freeing Trinity Post from inside, then naturally giving her ass a good, long reaming. In a nice, sick touch, Ireland has Lawrence mummify Post back up in the plastic for the facial pop.

Scene five is entitled "Edge Play," accurately so, as Mark Logan pierces Julie Night's titties and nipples - that's real blood kiddies; betcha never seen that in a hardcore title before - before James Deen roughly fucks her face and fart pipe, blowing his load in the latter for a little scene-ending felch and lick.

The squalid closer, "Toilet Trained," is a rough sex gem of a coupling that has Alex Sanders using the throat and ass of a collared and leashed Kelly Wells for cock training in a filthy men's room. When he shoots his goo onto the floor, the shapely uber-whore naturally licks it clean. See? You can find good help these days after all.
