Top adult entertainment studios dug deep into their creative reservoir in 2011, producing numerous ambitious features that titillated audiences and showed the level of entertainment they can achieve.
The best adult movies defied the tired stereotype that porn stars can’t act, showcasing some performers’ flair for drama while also placing them in unconventional roles.
These blockbuster movies — the Top 10 of which earned nominations for XBIZ “Feature Movie of the Year” for the 2012 XBIZ Awards — shined with their originality, innovation and emotional depth. And they did it without sacrificing the sizzle. These actors not only delivered their lines with passion, they also stayed in the moment for the sex.
As the final countdown to the industry’s biggest awards show of the year begins, XBIZ Magazine is pleased to present The Top Adult Movies of 2011.
A Little Part of Me (New Sensations)
Director James Avalon’s A Little Part of Me is a genuinely sweet, well-written, smart story of a bereaved widow (Bobbi Starr) who tracks down the recipients of her deceased husband’s organs in the hopes of finding closure and comfort in their expressions of gratitude. Directing from a script by Tyler Scott, Avalon produced an adult movie easily worthy of a primetime cable TV slot. New Sensations’ couples-themed Romance series continues to show why it’s one of the best lines in adult entertainment.
Babysitters 2 (Digital Playground)
Fueled by an all-star group of some of the industry’s top exclusive contract girls, the sequel to Babysitters picks up where the original left off, with a new crew of stunners who will do whatever it takes to get the job done. Adult film sensation Jesse Jane returns as the head of the babysitting service, sending out naughty dream girls like Riley Steele and hot newcomer BiBi Jones on house calls. The orgy finale is one of the must-see sex scenes of 2011.
Boooty Shop (West Coast Productions)
Misty Stone continues to shine as both actress and sex performer in writer/director Bishop’s irresistible dramedy. The 25-year-old beauty plays Delicious, a street-hustling prostitute who after inheriting her deceased uncle’s barber shop decides to get off the track and open a beauty salon with the help of her hooker friends. Complications surface, however, when her jealous cousin’s attempt to sabotage the business and her friends’ pimp demands a cut of its profits.
Dear Abby (New Sensations)
One of the quintessential adult “chick-flicks” of 2011, Dear Abby follows a relationship advice columnist (Giovanni Francesco) with some relationship issues of his own. While he’s great at giving advice, he struggles with his own feelings for his former fiancée and roommate (Natasha Nice). Skillfully shot by director Eddie Powell from a script from Jacky St. James — her screenwriting debut — this movie quickly became one of the top titles from New Sensations’ couples-themed Romance series.
Fighters (Digital Playground)
On the strength of a career-defining acting performance from superstar Jesse Jane, this saga about two girls from different backgrounds destined to meet in the center of the ring has been a title contender from the moment it was released. Director Robby D crafted an engaging saga about facing inner demons and testing one’s limits. And Jesse Jane and co-lead Kayden Kross showed championship form in the most physically demanding roles of their careers.
Horizon (Wicked Pictures)
In 2097 Earth has been invaded by hostile extraterrestrials that have killed most of its population. The spaceship Horizon is transporting hundreds of refugees to safety on a distant star. But it crashes on another planet, a mutiny occurs, and the dead bodies pile up. There is no happy ending. Shot with the Red Epic digital camera, director Sam Hain gave the movie a terrific look with first-rate special effects. And jessica drake, who plays the ship’s commander, leads an ensemble cast that delivers some of the best acting of the year.
Killer Bodies: The Awakening (Adam & Eve)
Perhaps the most technically innovative movie of the year, this interactive thriller from director David Lord allows the viewer to choose his own storyline. Consumers can control the fates of the stars Tori Black, Alexis Ford and Teagan Presley. The choose-your-own adventure epic features 10 sex scenes with 32 possible variations for a grand total of 4 hours, 46 minutes of footage.
My Girlfriend’s Mother (Sweet Sinner/Mile High)
One of director Nica Noelle’s finest movies features Magdalene St. Michaels, rising star Zoe Voss and Joey Brass, as the young man with a difficult decision. The tale of seduction follows Brass who comes home from the Army and meets jaded older woman Mrs. St. Michaels. As the young stud and older woman embark on a tricky love affair, Joey meets Magdalene’s daughter Zoe, falling madly in love with her. An angry, bitter Magdalene has no intention of letting the young stud go.
Portrait of a Call Girl (Elegant Angel)
In what may be the most dramatic acting turn of the year, rising star Jessie Andrews plays a call girl who is troubled by her past and searches for meaning through a series of remarkable sexual experiences. A relative newcomer to adult movies, Andrews gives a fearless performance as the call girl Elle, letting go in her sex scenes with an intensity that belies her age. There have been other showcase movies that feature the same girl in every scene, but nothing quite this. Written and directed by Graham Travis, the movie achieves exceptional levels with its smart script, gorgeous cinematography and moody musical score.
Savanna Samson is The Masseuse (Vivid Entertainment)
Paul Thomas, one of adult entertainment’s all-time great storytellers, delivers an instant classic that makes use of all the filmmaking elements that made him a world-renowned director. In the final movie he released through Vivid Entertainment, Thomas leads award-winning actress Savanna Samson to a career performance. The final package is full of complex characters, plot twists and kinky, hardcore sex — a throwback to the days of an era gone by.
