The Channings, a rich Californian winegrowing clan, are a peculiar
family indeed ... since everybody there seems to fuck everybody, and one
of them is even held as sex slave. Only Maggie acts like a good girl and
doesn't even like to suck her husband off. That's too old-fashioned even
for her mother Angela, so she at one point blows Maggie's hubby before her
very eyes, then lets Maggie drink the resulting sperm. Sperm though is
also the secret of the Channings' wine, their vineyards are fertilized
with it, so their wine has this certain cummy flavour. However, as
promiscuous as mom Angela might be, first and foremost she's a shrewd
businesswoman, so she wants all the vineyards she's supposed to split
among her kids for herself - and thus, at a party she fills them all up
with aphrodisiaks, and in the ensuing orgy, she quietly collects
signatures that her kids sign over their land to her ... Apparently
made at the height and as a parody of the TV-soap Falcon Crest,
Falo Crest has very little to do with the series apart from a few
character names and the fact that it's about wine. Instead we get a
slightly silly hardcore porn comedy that not exactly reinvents the genre,
but (if you're into porn to begin with) is at least fun to watch because
its jokes, the plot and all the shagging are at least interwoven so the
whole thing has a coherent (if downright perverted) feel to it, all of the
performers seem to be in on the joke, so while not all of them might be
adequate acting-wise, they at least seem to have a blast (even when
they're not having sex), and the approach to the whole thing is properly
light-footed. All of this makes this movie anything but a great film -
but at least an enjoyable porn comedy ...
