Episode 9. A young man begins to see his fiancee (Regina Russell) for the gold digger she is after his father sets him up with one of Belle's girls (Gabriella Hall) as a graduation present. Gabriella is stunning as always, with those big, natural funbags, and Regina brings it in one of her redder, redhead roles.

A tongue in cheek take on "The X Files," this flick follows a horny alien on the run who changes bodies through sexual excitement. Considering she takes the form of Gabriella Hall, Kira Reed, Delphine Pacific and Laura Palmer, you can sign me up for the program! Also stars Kim Yates, Blake Pickett and Sage Kirkpatrick.

In a role which will surprise you, Dana Plato of TV's Different Strokes, plays an art director involved in a romantic threesome with a male fashion photographer and his beautiful model girlfriend, who has a sizzling lesbian lovemaking scene with Plato. Landon Hall and Dana Plato really get in to the nipple sucking and tongue kissing in this rare but not forgotten classic.

Season Two, Episode 8. Three hot women (Gabriella Hall, Tina New and Judy Moulton) wager on who can get the handyman into bed. Lucky for him they all succeed, although their are no beds involved.

From director Nicolas Roeg ("Don't Look Now") comes this sensually charged drama starring Mimi Rogers and Bryan Brown in a tale of a lonely California art gallery owner and the masseur who comes into her life, and the steamy relationship that grows between them. It also stars Elizabeth Barondes and an extremely nude Gabriella Hall.

Warning: These clips came from a Region 2 dvd since it has yet to be released in the states on dvd. Dunno why.

A late-night Skinemax series that ran from 1996-1998, Beverly Hills Bordello matched nice shooting and gorgeous actresses with provocative storylines about an upscale "spa" run by sophisticated Madam/business woman Veronica Winston. During its three-year run, countless softcore greats passed through the Bordello's boudoirs, and several of the shows encounters were later recycled by companies like Mainline Releasing Group in compilation videos.

In Divine Inspiration from Season 2, the show takes a decidedly weird turn when a Bible-thumping reporter infiltrates the Winston Spa to gather dirt about a regular client that also happen to be a Senator. Alas, when faced with the delights of the ladies working the spa, he soon sees that maybe sex isn't nearly the sin everyone makes it out to be. As always during Season 2, Veronica Winston is portrayed by softcore legend Gabriella Hall, but here we get a pretty rare sequence with Veronica herself getting into the action, and it's one of Hall's best scenes of her career. Also starring the perfect-bodied Lauren Hays and, in a single non-nude scene, comely Linda O'Neil.

Gabriella Hall stars as Roberta, a low-budget movie director dealing with numerous problems on the set of her current production. When she is accidentally hit on the head, she is knocked unconscious and dreams of living in a highly eroticized version Robin Hood's Sherwood Forest. Amber Newman co-stars as a randy actress, and she - like Gabby Hall - looks positively spectacular; perhaps the best she's ever looked in a picture. Ditto for super long-haired redhead Susan Hale, a bit-part softcore player that here gets a larger role where she has a torrid scene with Newman. And for good measure, the voluptuous Shannan Leigh is tossed in as the picture's villain making this one of the best Surrender Cinema releases of the studio's brief tenure. As the pictures tagline says, "Now we know why they were 'Merry Men'!" Indeed!

Erotic thriller from the Bunny Mag's Indigo Entertainment actually presents a pretty intriguing "who-done-it" mystery while also delivering the requisite amount of skin. More supernatural and dark than most softcore offerings get (minus Secret Cellar), Jane Street features comely Linda Hoffman as Kim, a woman starting over her life in a new city with a new job. Alas, things get complicated quickly for Kim quick as she almost immediately begins an affair with her married boss and, at the same time, starts seeing the nude ghost of a smokin' hot brunette haunting the apartment her boss set her up in. Playing the part of the ghost is none other than the unbelievably gorgeous Gabriella Hall in one of her earliest roles, and her clothing allergies are in full effect here as you get to see some nice full-frontal action. Alas, Gabby and Linda are both shown-up by the totally bodacious, screamingly hot June 1997 Playmate of the Month, Carrie Stevens. Holy hand-grenades does this chick bring it in her single sex scene, so much so that director Vicangelo Bulluck includes a totally accessory moment before her death where she takes a good chunk of time getting dressed and oogling herself in a mirror. Nice!

Originally titled Balls of Thunder as a more direct play on Thunderball, this James Bond spoof is also the fifth movie in the seven picture "Click!" series based on Milo Manera's comic of the same name. This time around, Agent Rod Steele (perfectly played by Robert Donovan who merges Sean Connery and Roger Moore's Bonds) must stop evil villainess Tangerina (wonderfully campy - and totally hot - De'Ann Power) from capturing the semen of the most powerful men in the world so she cannot create a race of super-clones under her control. Assisting Rod is the positively drop-dead gorgeous 0013, a fellow agent played by Sita Renne Thompson, and the trusty "Click" device that makes people sexually ravenous at the touch of a button.

Between Thompson and Power, this movie could have been considered great, but director Rolfe Kanefsky was Hell-bent on making this better than great by casting almost everyone working in softcore at the time. With a cast so huge, Rod Steel has to be awarded softcore classic status. For instance, in one scene you have Jacqueline Lovell and Gabriella Hall go at it with leather and whips. In another sequence, you get the always-crowd-pleasing Holly Hollywood strip out of a bikini and rub herself into climax. Not be be outdone is Asian beauty Delphine Pacific as a hot-to-trot bartender, or Kira Reed, Sheila Vale and pornstar Tammi Ann as a horny group of agency operators in as scene so hot that parts of it were recycled at the end of Kanefsky's Emmanuelle's Intimate Encounters. But it doesn't stop there! The climax of the picture follows the example of fellow "Click!" movie The Ultimate Audition by filling a room full of hot bodies for a spinning-camera-captured orgy. Counted among the participants? Tracy Ryan, Petra Sexton and the amazing Gina Everett. Hell, even Bo Zena makes an appearance briefly as a casino patron driven to ecstasy by the clicker.

Fans of the "Click!" series will love this picture as it continues the movies' trend of solid acting and decent laughs, but for softcore lovers this thing is positively a treasure trove of total babes.

Porno vet Holly Sampson got a marquee softcore career going by following in the footsteps of Sylvia Kristel, Laura Gemser and Krista Allen and assuming the role of Emmanuelle at the turn of the century. Though the franchise had been plundered excessively over its thirty year history, erotica producer Alain Siritzky returned to the well once again, this time with the sure hand of writer/director Rolfe Kanefsky guiding the story and the result is an amusing, often steamy trifle. This title is one of seven that were created out of the Emmanuelle 2000 series, in much the same way Siritzky's Click, Adventures of Justine and Emmanuelle in Space series were handled.

But while the story is engaging enough - this installment bears a very strong resemblance in theme and tone to the Click series with people getting "turned on" in inconvenient situations by an advanced piece of technology - the casting of Sampson seems suspect as she doesn't have the same kind of presence as her predecessors. This isn't to say she doesn't give her all during her scenes - quite the contrary in fact as she makes Krista Allen's version of Emmanuelle seem downright demure. Rather it's just that Sampson doesn't radiate beauty the same way as the others, something that Emmanuelle is most known for in all incarnations.

Still, the movie overcomes any perceived casting errors by simply filling the supporting cast with a laundry list of well-known skin stars including Shauna O'Brien (post-boob-job and here portraying a wheelchair bound scientist), Brandy Miller (as a thief who should've been in A Chorus Line, Griffen Drew (with that regrettably crimped hair again), porno great Nancy Vee and, in a wacky end sequence, softcore heavy hitters Amy Lindsay, Regina Russell, Gabriella Hall and Jacqueline Lovell. That ending scene, where Emmanuelle's lust-inducing necklace transmitter goes global also features several gorgeous ladies this reviewer was unable to identify, so those with sharp eyes and an encyclopedic knowledge of the genre are invited do some ID'ing! Just toss the unknown's names into the comments area.

Like all Siritzky productions, there are also several lesser-known (but no less beautiful) ladies that get into the action. The highlight here is the sharp, stunning Cecilia Bergqvist who gives a piano player a show of his own during her temperature raising sequence (which also features a quick turn from an "early in her career" Tiffany Shepis.

With so much going on, how can one not recommend Emmanuelle 2000: Emmanuelle's Intimate Encounters? It's a fun, sexy romp that bests many a previous installment story-wise even if it doesn't with the casting of the leading lady herself.

Although not exhibited in the United States, the erotic television series Click was a series of seven 90 minute productions loosely based on the erotic graphic novels of the same name by Italian artist Milo Manara. In 1985, the first of Manara's books (1983's Il gioco) was turned into the French movie Le Déclic, then in the late 90's, after several several more Click graphic novel sequels were published, softcore impresario Alain Siritzky got hold of the adaptation rights, creating a terrific showcase for some of the hottest genre talent available, including Gabriella Hall, Jacqueline Lovell, Kira Reed, and Taylor St. Clair.

Unfortunately, only four of the original seven productions appear to have been released on DVD: The Body Beautiful, Sexual Dependence Day, Erotic Curse of Cairo, and Balls of Thunder (a James Bond play off Thunderball) and all now travel under different titles. It's the hope of many a softcore fan that both this, and Butterscotch, another Siritzky/Manara partnership will someday be officially packaged and released.

Available on DVD in the U.S. as The Ultimate Audition, the first of the Click movies, The Body Beautiful the mysterious Click remote control falls from a plane and crashes through the roof of a financially troubled health club. The remote, which can instantly arouse those it is pointed at with "click" of a button, ends up being a savior for the health club when two of its workers (the delicious, bubbly Gabriella Hall and charismatic, funny David Chielens) start having a little fun with the gadget, instantly making the club a hotspot for the fitness mavens looking for a little more than tight abs.

While the production suffers from Siritzky's insistence on spinning camera sex scenes and gauzy, vaseline-on-the-lens style shooting (the same techniques that hurt the otherwise fine Emmanuelle in Space series), overall The Ultimate Attraction is a fun, erotic-comedic romp chock-full-of skins scenes from talent well-known and not so well known. Recurring Click cast members Jacqueline Lovell and Holly Hollywood (in a very small, very underlit role) are joined by the lovely and talented Kiva (as 1/2 of a bumbling, burglering duo), Nina Leichtling (as the lecherous - but hot - real estate magnate ready to buy out the health club), and Taylor St. Clair as, well, apparently a stand-in for full-frontal shy Gabriella Hall during one of Hall's love scenes where the remote actual turns Hall into St. Clair (and Simona Votypkova as well). Later St. Clair appears again in a steamy sauna scene with a "click-aroused" Lovell.

It's all silly fun, and you see a lot more ladies naked than not as the majority of the featured extras include some recognizable names like Jennifer Burton and porn starlet Stephanie Swift as health club visitors caught in the erotic rapture of the "click" remote. Also caught "breaking a sweat" are lesser knowns like Bo Zena, Janine Stillo and Taylor Parque.

If you haven't seen it, or any of the Click series, The Ultimate Attraction goes highly recommended for fans of the genre and for those that like some laughs with their non-explicit sex scenes!

A Showtime late-night cable series produced by Playboy, this late 1990's bit of softcore is very, very soft. Not just the nudity, but the lighting and even the tone of the vast majority of the episodes is just "soft." That doesn't mean it's bad, however, as the series aims to tickle the mind as well as other parts. In many ways it feels like a longer, more fleshed-out version of another Bunny Mag produced series, Inside Out. Here the stories don't play out in nearly as one-note fashion, but they do tend to skew a bit on the more arty side.

Motel Magic is one of the weirded epiodes of the series, featuring an aging (but still pretty hot) Sally Kirkland alongside an in-her-prime Gabriella Hall as a woman staying at a mystical motel where she not only can see the actions of her neighbors through a wall, but also through decades of time. Hall looks terric, caught in flagrante delicto, and she and Kirkland make interesting old/young counterpoints in an episode centered around the idea of young lust versus old love. Perhaps a bit too deep for your average softcore fan, it's something new for the genre and not without its charms

A client (Gabriella Hall) yearning for her first love reminds Belle (Kim Dawson) of her own long lost love.

With most compilation videos from Mainline Releasing Group, you get at least a handful of newly minted sex scenes featuring today's softcore/hardcore actresses sandwiched by a large number of "flashback" moments usually culled from late-night cable series like Beverly Hills Bordello, Best Sex Ever, Hotline, etc.

Twilight Entertainment and New City Releasing take a different approach, and as they did in a compilation vid called Indecent Disclosure they cater specifically to fans of lovely ladies by grouping several scenes from different movies featuring the actresses together in one flick. In Insatiable Coeds you get some very nice moments from Landon Hall, Brandy Davis, Gabriella Hall and the very striking Tammy Parks. Scenes of each of these wonderful softcore starlets are broken up by a handful of other excellent players like Ashley Rhey, Kristen Knittle, Petra Sexton, Mellara Gold, Michelle Trongone and Dana Plato.

Fans of 90's softcore will want to track down Twilight's vids as they often offer slightly extended versions of scenes from now classic softcore fare, but if you're looking for plot or original scenes, stay away. Though the movie is in effect "hosted" by softcore vets Kat Hare, Brandy Miller and Tess Broussard and is directed by Surrender Cinema alum Pat (Lolita 2000) Siciliano, don't expect too much from the wraparound segments as all the girls do is sit around a hot-tub in bikinis pretending they are gossipy college sorority sisters.

A late-night cable series that ran from 1996-1998, Beverly Hills Bordello matched nice shooting and gorgeous actresses with provocative storylines about an upscale "spa" run by sophisticated Madam/business woman Veronica Winston. During its three-year run, countless softcore greats passed through the Bordello's boudoirs, and several of the show's encounters were later recycled by companies like Mainline Releasing Group in compilation videos.

In Love Lessons, softcore legend (and future heir to the role of Veronica Winston) Gabriella Hall is most displeased with her man's approach to lovemaking. The logical result? Send him to the Winston Spa to learn about a woman's needs. There he gets to watch Summer Knight as she gets off on her own and with series semi-regular Elina Madison. Sound ridiculous? Yeah, it is, but Beverly Hills Bordello was always escapist fun and this is one of the hotter episodes in the series canon that's to the ever gorgeous Hall.

A lonely and shy young woman (co-producer Gabriella Hall in a late-career role), inherits a house and stumbles upon a secret formula that enables her to transform her body in any way she wants. Each time she takes on a different form, she loses parts of her own personality until she doesn't know where her real self ends and her new alter-ego begins. The struggle between her new found abilities and her own conscience lead up to a climax where she will have to recapture her old life or give in to her desires. Starring Blythe Metz as Hall's main alter-ego, Jacqueline, and several other actresses unafraid to show off their best assets, including Rebekah Ellis, Eva Derrek, Faith Morales, Lexi, and Sarah Hayes-Marshall. Good stuff, from the director of The Sex Files: Alien Erotica, Rolfe Kanefsky, this one could have easily been a tossed-together softcore mess, but it manages to succeed for the most part as an interesting movie.

Knowing full-well that they own rights to productions with some of the best-looking women to ever grace the small screen sans clothing, Mainline Releasing Group frequently visits their expansive archives and cobbles together new productions on the cheap featuring 2 or 3 new love scenes amongst a bounty of scenes culled from old late-night cable television programs. The results are along the lines of Forbidden Fantasies. With a threadbare plot established so softcore's new vanguard (read: pornstars on holiday) can set up scenes from turn of the century softcore starlets, don't expect to be rivited by character or situational drama. They made this movie for one reason and you'll be watching it for exactly that reason: to see some nice looking ladies get naked and writhing.

Here, Brooke Hunter is visiting sex therapist Nakita Kash whose treatments would seem unorthodox anywhere outside the realm of softcore flicks. Joining the ladies for a bit of "inhibition breakdown" counsiling is Summer Fields. Hardcore stars all, this collection frequently gives way to actresses like Monique Parent, Gabriella Hall and Elina Madison who made a name for themselves with slightly less explicit fare. These scenes, taken from the Showtime Network's Beverly Hills Bordello, haven't (and most likely never will) receive a proper DVD release, but for the most part are presented here uncut and with their original soundtrack. Below is an index of the uncredited scenes and what episodes of the tv show they were taken from.

Distributed by the Alexander Institute, a group that produces "instructional and erotic programs for lovers who desire incredible sex" and executive producer Richard Gabai, a veteran b-movie and exploitation film actor, director and producer who recently had broke into mainstream filmmaking, Voyeur is cast to the gills with almost every excellent softcore actress you can think of. The women, thusly, are deliriously good-looking, the love scenes are extremely hot and well-acted and often the story lines are pretty interesting, albeit brief.

In Taboo, one of softcore's best actresses, the stupefyingly luscious Gabriella Hall, makes a sexually reserved appearance that draws more on her acting skills than her ability to simulate coitus. Porn star Felony, as Gabriella's sister who makes a move on Gabby's husband, gets in a surprisingly loud and lustful sex scene while also getting the chance to flex previously unused acting chops. This episode can be found on Voyeur: A Little Kink, which is Volume 1 of the collected series on DVD.

A compilation video from the fine folks at Mainline Releasing Group (MRG), Amy Lindsay and Mia Zottoli play lawyers comparing their raciest client stories while spending an afternoon at the spa. If you're expecting much skin from the two oft-unclothed leads, you'll want to look elsewhere as the larger portion of this movie is made up of re-cut and re-scored scenes from classics like Massuese 3, Different Strokes and The Escort. As several of these movies are out of print and pretty difficult to find a good copy of, this flick does have its value – especially to fans of Landon Hall, Tane McClure, and pre-augmented Shauna O'Brien. These three fine ladies are accompanied by other softcore greats including Gabriella Hall, Dana Plato, and Ashley Bates, so if you can track down a copy of Indecent Disclosure (which might be pretty tough – keep your eyes on cable listings), it's a good find.

Emmanuelle travels around the globe helping her friends: a Morraccan Sultan, a technology wizard in Japan, and a corporate industrialist in the middle of nowhere. Each needs the special talents only Emmanuelle can provide in both business and pleasure. Another one in the Holly Sampson series of Emmanuelle movies. This one, like the others, features about 70% nudity, which is basically what these movies are about. Mediocre softcore, with some great nudity from Holly and Gabriella Hall.

Elizabeth is an aspiring actress whose dedication to her craft drives her lover into the arms of her best friend, while a mysterious admirer's obsession turns deadly, in this erotic drama. Jennifer Burton, Mellara Gold, Landon Hall star. 90 min.

A struggling actress contemplates becoming a nude centerfold hoping that it will jump-start her career, but begins to have second thoughts when she meets some of the people who run the business.

Mystical powers revive an ancient sex goddess who wishes to enslave the world in erotic desire. The archeologist who freed the goddess and his wife are her first victims, and she sets her sights on other victims. But who can stop her? Regina Russell and Gabriella Hall star in this kinky adventure. Unrated version; 87 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby stereo.

This super-sizzling take on "Black Widow" features Shauna O'Brien ("Friend of the Family") as a beautiful woman who lures men into marrying her, then kills them in order to gain their cash and properties. Researcher Gabriella Hall ("Lolita 2000") attempts to track down the murderess, and her work eventually brings the women into a face-to-face showdown over the same man.

The dawning of a new millennium has brought with it the banning of all sexual activities and explicit art, but a government censor named Lolida finds her own sexuality awakened by a trilogy of stories she monitors in this erotic sci-fi drama. Jacqueline Lovell, Gabriella Hall, Nikki Nova, Skylar Nicholas, Heather James, Taylor St. Claire and one really hot Unknown Lolida star.

Despite the obviously low budget, "Portrait of the Soul" could just be a future cult classic thanks mainly to the imagery of the film's writer / director, David Goldner. This story is said to be based on the classic Oscar Wilde tale, "The Picture of Dorian Gray", the story of a painter who's portrait reflects his age and growing life style of decadence. In this erotic take off, a photographer is capturing the souls of his subjects in his photographs, which then releases them from their inhibitions, there for justifying the producer's requirement of multiple sex scenes in the film. The film is filled with great photographic images, apparently created by Goldner himself, and definatly add to the atmosphere and production value of this film. Don't get me wrong, this is still a "B" movie, but there is something about the direction and dialogue (some of which is directly taken from Oscar Wilde's original story) that set this film apart from others that have been produced by Alain Siritzky, best know for his somewhat mundane series of "Emmanuelle" productions. I actually like this film enough to buy it on DVD, and would recommend to anyone who likes this genre to take a look-see.

Apparently this little straight-to-video softcore flick was edited together from episodes of some Skinimax-type series called 'Butterscotch'. There's nothing mentioned about that in the credits, but does it really matter? What matters is that Norman Prents (Scott Coppola) gets the ability to turn invisible and uses it the way any normal man would, by banging lots of chicks, but mainly the unbelieably gorgeous Gabriella Hall, who plays his girlfriend Kelli Parkinson. What's so great about this movie is that since he's invisible while he's banging Gabriella we have amazing shots of her body in action. That alone makes this a must own for any softcore fan. Also stars Kim Dawson, Holly Hollywood and Elina Madison.

When Jeff Diamond (Steve Curtis) is unexpectedly laid off from his job, his wife Susan (Michelle Perry) accepts an offer by her best friend Kathy (Zoe Paul) to pay Jeff as an escort to a party. Kathy enjoyed Jeff so much she requests him again at a higher rate which includes sex. After being unsuccessful in locating a new job, Susan decides to continue booking escort appointments to make up the lost income. Soon Susan sets up the service as a business, and ends up making thousands of dollars. Jeff is unhappy but does it anyway for his wife. Eventually Jeff meets a wealthy woman, Denise, who falls for him. Jeff stays awhile, but runs back to his wife, and they take a well planned vacation, and live happily ever after.

Women tell their innermost secrets -- and seek help for their most intimate problems -- in this sizzling adult anthology series.

Belle, a psychiatrist, discusses her female patients' sexual hangups and fantasies, helping them to find new sexual freedom.
