AMANDA BY NIGHT (1981)


 I've seen this movie referred to as an adult version of the Jane Fonda movie KLUTE but I've never seen that one so I can't say how close this is.  I have read that was a big inspiration and the basic plot, about prostitutes getting murdered, is similar.  What I do know for sure is what you get here is probably one of the most well made XXX movies ever.  The acting is all around good, the story about prostitutes being murdered is engaging and the sex scenes make sense and don't feel completely shoehorned in as they often times do in movies like this.
 Our two main characters are played by Veronica Hart and cult Eurotrash movie fav Robert Kerman and this movie really shows them at their best.  Packed with greats from the olden days of porn like Ron Jeremy(who has a standout rape scene with Lee Carroll), Jamie Gillis(as a sleazy hitman named Friday), Lisa DeLeeuw and a bunch more.  I particularly thought Samantha Fox, as a heroin shooting strung out junkie whore, really added a lot to the grittiness on display.  A great movie to show to someone that epitomizes why it was called the golden age of adult films.
 The director Robert McCallum a.k.a. Gary Graver went on to make a bunch more XXX flicks on into the late 1990's but I doubt he ever topped this one. 


Oh Ron, you were so svelte back then!:

  4. Me and my then- girlfriend saw this at the Lone Star Drive-In in Dallas, which was the local X-rated outdoor venue that was always causing a stir with passing traffic, lol.

    1. That's great! It's amazing that X-rated drive-in's were ever a thing.
