Australian Penthouse

GIVEN the recent trend of big-budget historical TV dramas such as Deadwood and The Tudors, it’s great to see the porn industry mimicking and piss-taking the genre, just like it did in the 1980s and 90s. Obviously influenced by BBC series Rome, this namesake is a decent effort from Daring!, though it lacks some of the polish of its Private equivalents.

PRODUCER: DARING!
DIRECTOR: ANTONIO ADAMO
STARRING: JULIA TAYLOR, JENNIFER LOVE, CLAUDIA ROSSI, ANGEL DARK
STYLE: HARDCORE

The lovely Euro-babes are in various states of undress in ancient Roman/Egyptian attire, as they get plowed by guards, centurions and even Caesar himself. It’s mainly stock-standard boy/girl scenes, with the occasional tag-team effort, but it wouldn’t be Rome without an all-in orgy! In a subtle nod to Caligula, as part one of a trilogy, this bodes very well for the series’ salacious sequels.

Three and a half stars.
