This more personal (and more concise) than usual edition of the long-running Older/Younger series has India Summer as the central character, providing her point-of-view through voice-over narration and a sensitive performance. Along the way we discover the accidental creation of this strange society that bears little relation to the real world or any lesbian subculture therein.
The early scenes are notable for putting India into a discomfortable position. She is wrestling with the notion of more or less pimping out her cute daughter Jenna J. Ross, in order to reap the club's benefits of being fixed up with nubile youngster Staci Silverstone, and as always the Video Land home viewer has zero suspense in expecting these hook ups to take place once the verbal stalling is completed. For this volume Girlfriends Films head honcho Dan O'Connell (with no screen credit, as usual) manages to bring the four scenes in at under two hours instead of the usual 3-hour running time.
Sort of a deus ex machina, Prinzzess is brought into the picture as the West Coast president of the club and she immediately throws her weight around by having a threesome with kids Jenna and Staci while mom India can only watch in disbelief. Eventually Staci goes off with India to service her, while Jenna gets to hump Staci's mom Rayveness, and Prinzzess gets more threesome action going with Ray and JJ.
The club's origins are revealed in a lengthy flashback featuring the other two mom/daughter teams in action. It turns out that kidnapping was the genesis of the daughter-swap gimmick, with Zoey Holloway stealing away Tanya Tate's kid Kelly Surfer (the well-cast Tanya and Kelly have suitably similar accents, Liverpudlian and Aussie). Though the dramatics become unbelievable, they sort out there differences, Tate having kidnapped Zoey's child Veruca James, and the swapped hump sessions take place sensuously. Chief gimmick is that Zoey and Kelly have gotten married in the interim, and Tate finally throws her hands up at getting her now-married child back and decides such swaps are worth facilitating in future by the creation of the Club.
Sex is strong and benefits from the scenes being more concise for once. This Volume 27 is also different in that the cast all (except Zoey) get character names rather than laboring under the lazy porn construct of using their stage names for their characters.
