Hot! I barely expected something called Campus Confessions to excite me, much less fall squarely in the Couples genre. Girls: I know that this isn’t the kind of title you’d expect to create some serious moisture, but once again Hustler has delivered some surprising goods. I picked this baby up expecting filler porn that would be a quick review; what I got was an intro to a phenomenal director, Kat Slater, and new conviction that Hustler is producing some quality smut with cross-gender appeal.

Four of the six scenes here are absolutely mind-blowing. I couldn’t get enough of sexual energy of some of these performers (of both sexes, too; this is the first straight feature I’ve seen to include male performers of consistently high quality) their kind of passion that is incredibly sexy in its naturalness and bodice-ripping hunger. Forbidden (and thus confessable) sex is the running theme here – each scene involves fucking in situations and places in which getting caught would bring down some serious heat.

Number seven of this series opens with a yoga student-instructor encounter. The blonde, statuesque Tonya James tells the story of how a one-on-one lesson turns into a session of near-tantric sex – I’ve noticed Hustler’s tendency to start strong: take the prettiest girl, put her in a great scene, and put them both right up front. Watching Tonya, decked out in a tight pink outfit just right for yoga (and seduction), handle the lead-up to the sex sets the tone for the whole movie in terms of near-believable dialogue and acting. Look around, you’re not going to see this comment in a whole lot of porn reviews.

Scene two features Madison telling the tale of when she blew her boyfriend in the student union, seduced a nearby grad student, and had a slutty threesome. Tattooed brunette Madison comes off as a little amateurish, which I suppose some would find charming. I have to say though, while he’s a decent performer, Pascal looks a) too dumb, and b) too cut to pull off “grad student” convincingly (I’ve had to hang around my fair share).

I’m never too enthusiastic about lesbian scenes in straight porn, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that Scene 3 is objectively unexciting. Sandra Shine, playing a bicurious art student, and Monique Dane, her roommate and object of desire, look like they’re not even particularly into the sex. Also, the bit where they’re both licking off a dildo for a while just seemed a little ridiculous to me. It’s all a pity, because this sequence could have used the waterfall fantasy backdrop so much better.

The good news is that this is where the sub-par quality ends. Our fourth confession involves Trinity, a curly-haired brunette whose boyfriend apparently has wandering eyes. To the hurrahs of horny men everywhere, I imagine, she decides that instead of giving him a hard time about it, she’ll prove that she’s as attractive and whorish as any chick on the block. Shopping in a lingerie store in pursuit of this goal, an underwear-clad Trinity accosts store assistant Sandi Gibson whose been exchanging looks with the boyfriend who’s tagged along and yells, “Hey! You wanna fuck my boyfriend?!”

The final scene is a worthy climax. Taylor Lynn brings it home as a lovely blonde cheerleader busted and thrown in jail for jaywalking and underage drinking. Lee Stone plays a fatherly cop who suggests that time will bring Taylor a change of perspective; Taylor decides that nudity would change the perspective nicely.

I’m glad she does – the petting is heavy, and the fucking scathingly urgent. This makes the creaky prison bunk noises quite appropriate, and the country music soundtrack a little less so. The kind of quality performance Lee gives here I haven’t seen since watching Herschel Savage in The Other Side of Serenity. The man is a not-so-lean (more the bodybuilder type), mean fucking machine; there’s even that position where they go from missionary to the guy picking the girl up to continue fucking as he’s standing, while she holds on for dear life. I’ve never seen this position done in a way that wasn’t hot.

Not only does Taylor go on to suck dick like a champion cheerleader, she also gives us the only anal scene of the movie. Nicely done too, the girl looks like she’s really being torn apart, and loving every last second.

That was hot enough an ending, but don’t put that remote down yet, your faithful reviewer has uncovered the hidden bonus scene treasure! This might be the best fuck of the movie even – its theme is sluthood (again), and we have for performers a Frenchman (providing the one uncircumcised cock of the feature) and a cute American brunette. In bed that evening, the girl confesses an affair to her French boyfriend, and the he decides that the best punishment is to give her more of his cock (perfect porn logic – see, female fantasies can be satisfied in porn too).

The girl moves really well, with some exceptional arching, and the man does nothing to discredit the stereotype of the French superlover. There are twice as many positions than usual, all with hands everywhere, grasping, full-bodied thrusting, digits being sucked at every turn, and bodies intensely intertwined.

Production values: the lighting might have been a little too bright throughout – there’s a slightly pasty effect. The music is top-notch, with a really nice variety. The selection gives the impression that the age of the target audience is starting to come down a wee bit – I’m not sure I’ve ever seen porn set to a hip-hop/R&B tune before (the lingerie store scene).

This was my first Kat Slater feature, and I can’t say how impressed I am – the woman’s touch is clearly recognizable, but the sex is multi-faceted in its appeal. She has an eye for true sexual passion reminiscent of Pierre Woodman and Michael Ninn. I am equally charmed by her down-to-earth personality, and absolutely pleasant demeanor as portrayed in the DVD Director’s Profile – she seems like a nice woman you’d be totally at home having coffee or beer with, with all the right ideas about what makes brilliant porn.
