TABOO II (xxx film review)

 



















1980's Taboo was a major success, as far as porn films of that era go, so two years later the husband and wife team of director Kirdy Stevens and writer Helene Terrie returned with this sequel. And they follow the traditional sequel rules of doing what you did in the first film, but even bigger. So while the first film focused on incest between a mother and son, this film gives us incest between mother and son, father and daughter and brother and sister, the latter of which is the main focus of the film.

Kay Parker does return as Barbara Scott, but now she's more of a supporting character. On the one hand, it's somewhat disappointing that they don't continue the story of Barbara and Paul, as the status of their relationship and whether or not it would continue was left ambiguous at the end of the first film. And Kay Parker and Mike Ranger had such hot chemistry together that I would have loved to have seen more scenes of them. Ranger doesn't return for this or any of the subsequent sequels, and I always wondered if there was a specific reason for that, was he never asked back, or did he just refuse? Who knows?

Terrie and Kirdy make an interesting choice to advance the story, in that they take a side character from the first film and build this story around them, making this a natural sequel that's connected to the original without just being a retread.

Dorothy LeMay played Paul's girlfriend Sherry in the first film, and she returns here, with her last name being revealed as McBride. 

She lives with her parents Greg and Joyce McBride (Eric Edwards and Honey Wilder) and her brother Greg Jr., who is just referred to as "Junior" (Kevin James).

At the time of this film, Eric was 37, Honey was 32, and Dorothy and Kevin were both 26. It's not stated how old any of their characters are supposed to be in this film. Sherry was shown to be in the same class as Paul in the first film, and he was just referred to as a teenager & I speculated that he was in his senior year of high school. 


Sherry is shown to still be in school, so if this film is 2 years later, perhaps she's a 19-year-old sophomore in college now? Junior is said to be her older brother, but they don't say how old, and he doesn't appear to be in school or have any kind of job. At one point Sherry tells Junior that Barbara is old enough to be his mother. Kay Parker was now 38 when this film was shot. So maybe he's 20? But that should also make their parents older than the actors who play them are.

I know I may be overthinking all of this, but I just like to try to mentally fill in these types of background details. I'll also note that although the first film took place in San Francisco, this one is in Los Angeles, with no explanation, so ignore that. 

It's established right from the start that Junior is turned on by his sister, as we see them driving somewhere in his car and he is frequently reaching over to grab her tits or crotch, and she's always slapping his hands away. She just seems annoyed by him and calls him a pervert. It could be implied that this is just random, if unusual, playing around between them, but his behavior escalates as the film progresses, with him frequently barging into her bedroom while she's getting dressed and trying to proposition her. 

By random coincidence, they stop at a small retail store to buy a birthday card for their father, and it turns out that the store is run by Barbara Scott.
We find out that since the last film Paul has gone to live with his father, and Sherry notes that he never even said goodbye to her. This does make sense, as Paul was clearly upset at the relationship between his mother and Jerry at the end of the last film, so I can see him not wanting to live with Barbara anymore. 

There is an obvious attraction between Junior and Barbara when they meet, and Junior tells Barbara that he was a friend of Paul's and has some tools he borrowed from him, and offers to bring them to Babara so she can give them to him whenever she sees him again. Barbara, staring at the noticeable bulge in Junior's pants, gives him his address. 

No mention is made of Jerry Morgan or Barbara's relationship with him. Barbara now lives in a nice house with Gina (a returning Juliet Anderson). And we see Gina giving Barbara a nude massage on a table in their house later. Barbara is turned on and Gina starts fingering Barbara's pussy as Barbara tells her about Junior. Then Junior shows up, with the tools, and Gina invites him to join her in massaging Barbara's body. And then Gina lets it slip that Barbara fucked Paul, which shocks and turns on Junior, and they end up in a hot threesome on a bed. 



It could be implied that it was the knowledge of Barbara and Paul having sex that made Junior determined to actually try to have sex with his sister. As I noted his harassment of Sherry escalates after this. When he gets home that night he catches Sherry in her room, in just a nightgown, and tempts her with a secret about Paul, only agreeing to tell her if she lets him kiss one of her tits, which she reluctantly does.


The next day Sherry is in a bad mood, and tells her mother she never wants to hear that name again, when she asks her about Paul. Junior goes to see a girl named MaryLou (who was "introduced" in the credits of this film as Bambi, later going by the name Tammy) and has sex with her. The status of their relationship is unclear, but she's a friend and fellow student of Sherry's, and we see them walking to (or from) school together later. After they have sex Junior tells MaryLou that he wants her to help him have sex with Sherry and whispers a plan into her ear. MaryLou seems surprisingly cool with this idea. 

At this point, it's revealed that Greg and Joyce's sex life isn't all that great, at least not for Joyce. We see her wake him up in the middle of the night to initiate sex, and even though it's a hot-looking scene, when he cums she says she wasn't ready, and she tries to suck his cock to keep going, but he stops her to go back to sleep, leaving her lying there unsatisfied. We later see that Greg is having an affair with his secretary, a woman played by an actress credited only as "Michelle", so this may explain his lack of interest in satisfying his wife. 

Junior happened to be walking by the hallway and peeked in and saw his parents having sex, after which he went to Sherry's room and tried to jump in bed with her but she pushed him off. 

Later Junior's plan comes into action. Sherry is at MaryLou's house, they're both naked in a hot tub, as MaryLou brags about how big Junior's dick is and how he makes her cum over and over. Then she comes on to Sherry, who suggests they take it inside. The two girls start having lesbian sex on the couch, first engaging in a 69 and then with MaryLou laying in between Sherry's legs and eating her pussy, while Sherry has her eyes closed and enjoys it. When Sherry opens her eyes again she sees that Junior has switched places with MaryLou and he's now the one eating her pussy. Sherry is shocked but can't get him to stop because it feels so good. After a little more of that Junior gets on top of her and fucks her, as MaryLou watches. It's a hot scene, as Sherry moans in ecstasy and admits how good it feels. 

Later that night, when they're back home, Junior sneaks into Sherry's room again, and at first she denies him because she still thinks it's wrong for them to have sex, but she then she admits that she wants it too, and they fuck again. 

The next morning Joyce drives Greg to the airport, as he has to leave for a business trip. Junior and Sherry are still in bed, and he wakes her up to initiate sex again. When Joyce gets back home she hears the sounds from Sherry room and opens the door and catches them fucking, screams in shock and runs out of the room. Junior still can't stop fucking Sherry and continues until he cums, and then both of them hurriedly get dressed and leave, driving to Bambi's house, where they apparently spend the rest of the day, trying to figure out what they're going to do. Humorously, Sherry's big concern is that when their mother tells her father, her father won't buy her the car that he's promised her now. 

Back at home, we see Joyce call the hotel that Greg will be staying at and leaving a message for him to call her as soon as he gets in. Then she sits around drinking vodka, as she tries to rehearse how she's going to break the news to him. As she keeps drinking and talking out loud to herself, she reminisces about what she saw, talking about Junior's beautiful body and his big cock, saying maybe she can't blame Sherry for falling for him. She even spends time in a bubble bath, still drinking. That evening Junior returns home alone. Joyce has still been drinking and is now in a black nightgown. Junior begs her not to tell his father, and she asks him to dance with her. They begin a slow romantic dance that leads to kissing, then a blowjob, and then they finally fucking, with them both promising that "no one will ever know."













The next morning Joyce wakes up in bed when Greg calls her back, asking him what the problem is. But she just tells him that she took care of it. Then she lays back down and says to herself "I fucked our son," but it's there no emotion to it so it's hard to tell if she regrets it or not. And we see no further interaction between Junior and Joyce, so that's left unclear.

Next we see Junior, Sherry, and MaryLou going to Barbara and Gina's house, where they've been invited to a party. This party happens to be an orgy, like the one in the first film, except much bigger. Junior, MaryLou, and Gina all get in on the action, as we dozen people fucking in all sorts of combinations. For most of it Barbara and Sherry watch together on a couch with excited looks on their faces. Then they start making out, with Barbara licking Sherry's pussy, but then RON JEREMY takes Barbara's place and fucks Sherry. 

This experience appears to have greatly loosened Sherry's inhibitions, and she now becomes determined to seduce her father. When he comes back she makes him breakfast, and then that night she actually sneaks into her parents' bedroom and starts blowing her father. When he wakes up they have sex, right next to Joyce as she sleeps. 

After they finish, Sherry sneaks back out of the room and Greg then wakes up Joyce by going down on her, and they have hot passionate sex that this time leaves Joyce fully satisfied, telling Greg that "I love the new you" and she asks him what brought this on, but before he can answer says "I don't want to know." And they kiss. 
THE END

Overall this film is a big improvement over the first one. A great cast and the sex scenes are hotter (and there are more of them). Honey Wilder is a great substitute for Kay Parker, as the lead "mother" in this film. Those two could still put any of the modern-day MILFs to shame if you ask me. I particularly liked the way her seduction by Junior was handled, the way we saw how she was influenced by alcohol and basically spent a day talking herself into it. Similarly, the way Sherry was tricked by Junior, while not wholly appropriate (but then this is a film about INCEST after all), at least made it a bit more realistic, including the fact that she was still hesitant to continue even though she liked it the first time. 

The only family hook-up that was a bit out of left field was Sherry and Greg. We can imply that being seduced by her brother and participating in an orgy helped lower Sherry's inhibitions to the point where she was turned on by her father, but there'd be no indication before that that Greg would have any interest in her daughter. 

One missed opportunity I would have liked would have been a full scene of Barbara and Sherry, more than just their brief interaction during the orgy (and for the record, I'm not a big fan of orgy scenes in porn anyway). 
It seems like something that would have helped bring the two films full circle, as we see early on that Sherry was angry when she found out about Paul and Barbara, but now after experiencing incest herself, she accepted it. 

Still, if there's a list of the greatest porn films ever, this one has to be on it. Even if the topic of incest makes you queasy, I think you'll love THIS film. 
Chacebook rating: FIVE STARS
