Femalien

FEMALIEN is a lighthearted, soft-core romp with just enough of a story to tie the numerous "love simulation" scenes together. Vanesa Talor is Gina, the titular -careful now!- character. She visits our planet in order to experience human pleasure, using her "powers" to assist her in this venture.

Obviously, this movie is intended for a very specific audience. It succeeds admirably in hitting this target. As stated before, this mostly-naked movie is lighthearted fluff, and it's difficult to imagine anyone being shocked or offended by it. After all, this isn't the 1950's!

The women are beautiful, and the various encounters are far more erotic than raunchy. If anything, it gets rather redundant.

Co-stars the wonderful Jacqueline Lovell as Sun...

Apparently the lead female in this one got it in her contract that she only do a couple of "commercials" (soft core sex) scenes and did not have to do any acting of any consequence. So she "observes" humans having sex until it comes her turn for the big "finale". Needless to say she does virtually nothing to indicate any kind of anticipation leading up to her eventual participation (I almost thought she was not going to do anything at all!). This was the only surprise of the movie.

If your local drug store is out of your local sleeping aid, play this turkey and you will get to snooze-ville fast!

Emmanuelle went to space in the 90s - but that wasn't enough. The Aliens really want to know what it feels like to have sex. While music is playing in the background - yes it happens. So they do send this good looking woman to us - and she is quite the voyeur. But she has to study us, right? Of course, of course - also important to paste and copy (no pun intended).

If you don't mind that or rather if you want it (again no pun intended), the movie really gives it to you ... I think I'll stop apologizing. The people here don't seem to care about their non acting abilities either - no excuse or apology given.

I skipped most erotic scenes, which made the running time quite ... well it shrunk away. It went as fast as travelling is with beam functions. There is not much story, but a lot of heterosexual romp or whateveer you would call it.

Much like Surrender Cinema's many other titles, this is really a porno, toned down just enough so that it's not really a porno. This one, however, is Surrender's flagship title.

The main character, Vanesa Taylor, is incredibly hot. All the women are in fact. The director, Cybil Richards, shoots the numerous sex scenes very well. The "orgasms" are great. The plot? It's threadbare, which is good. You don't buy movies like this for plot.

And of course, no review of Femalien would be complete without commenting on the final girl/girl scene between Vanesa and Jacqueline Lovell. It is indeed one of the best lesbian scenes I've ever seen, putting most hardcore stuff to shame.

Femalien is a great bargain and delivers more quality than most movies costing 2 or 3 times what it retails for. Very recommended.

I'm surprised how scientific people are getting with the comments. When you watch beautiful women like Vanesa Talor (Oh maaannnnnn!!!!) totally naked in both steamy guy-girl scenes and steamy girl-girl scenes (The climax: Terrific!!!) how much more are you asking for? I think people were commenting on the cheesy dialogue and miniscule production values. How high are your standards when it comes to softcore porn? As long as the movie is done in a tasteful manner (I can't stand hardcore porn!), like this one, there really isn't much to complain about. Plus, Surrender Cinema almost always has the BEST-looking vixens around. I wouldn't be surprised if Hugh Hefner auditions some of the ladies. Vanesa couldn't be a better choice. She has a smoking body!

Aside from the girl-girl climax with Vanesa and Jacqueline Lovell, the highlight would have to be the "special" lingere fashion show. Let's just say the women don't stay in the lingere very long. I'll leave it right there. And I love the theme song. I don't know why, it just sets a great erotic tone.

For fans of skin flicks...this is among the elite.

My score: 9 (out of 10)
