Like I said, I swear this isn't any sort of porno, whether it be softcore or hardcore. Rather, it was a movie that was on a Showtime channel awhile back and I saw part of it but with the sound off. No, not for any illicit reasons; I was listening to a podcast before I went to bed, where again I did not do anything illicit. The movie looked crappy so I did not feel like watching it in full; besides, it's from The Asylum, a studio I've never had a lot of faith in for various good reasons. But, last week I saw it was on again late-nite so I decided to watch it in full, for shits and giggles.

And I am talking about this tonight as I was going to watch something but plans changed so I decided to talk about this instead.

This is a sex comedy so there isn't much of a plot: three girls who are friends and who just happened to be all born on the same day decided to celebrate their 18^th birthday by losing their virginity on the big day.

To be honest, this isn't too much above a softcore porn. Pretty much all of the action takes place in a big mansion. You see no parents or butlers/maids or anything. You really have to shut your brain off. At least they found someone with a great fancy place as it was roomy enough to hold a beerfest party with a lot of young people roaming about.

But hey, this is a raunchy teen sex comedy where you see the women sex-crazed and horny. If you enjoy vulgar humor then this will be your bag. It's pretty stupid and not that great on a technical scale; still, I laughed more often than I care to admit at all the crude and crass gags. This must be the unrated version given all the vulgarity and you see such things as full frontal nudity. There really aren't any surprises; there's one horny girl, one who is normal and one who is chaste but of course ends up being a horndog.

Still, if you shut off your brain and enjoy crass comedies then you may want to give this a shot. Also, if you enjoy full frontal nudity then you'll probably like this for non movie-watching reasons if you get my drift.

I will be back on Wednesday with a more legit film then the rest of the week will be rather busy as I will be watching all three Nolan Batman movies back to back to back on an IMAX screen and I will give my take on The Dark Knight Rises first then I'll talk about Batman Begins then The Dark Knight. So it will be quite the week here.
