Has anybody already watched the movie "The House of Games"?
If so, could we get a kind of review?

'the house of games' is another slick, stylish offering by director antonio adamo, and a 'must' for fans of dutch star bobbi eden. in this film, as elsewhere in adamo's work, there are shades of 'eyes wide shut': the story involves a mysterious cult at whose 'house of games' it is possibe to fulfil forbidden desires and fantasies. the models all have smouldering good looks, and the sex is directed and photographed with precision and panache. i'd like to single out the performance of czech girl ellen, for certain techniques she brings to the sex.
the final scene of the film (dvd scene selection 6) opens with all the characters wearing ceremonial dress - three men in black cloaks, and bobbi eden, ellen and daniella schiffer dressed in white. it's not long, of course, before the girls slip out of their garments. bobbi is chosen by the master of the house to join him in watching the action as the other two girls are each appointed partner to one of the remaining, hooded men. the sex begins and everything you'd expect from a workout in a private movie is delivered. it's all enhanced by an efficiently sexy musical soundtrack, with a driving, percussive beat and a teasing, melodic chime effect which is a little suggestive of enio morriccone. (i'm thinking of the watch chimes in 'a few dollars more', as sampled in a recent popular dance track.) my only quibble is that the scene seems over-lit, given that what we are supposed to be witnessing is an "event" at the shadowy, somewhat sinister 'house of games'. bobbi eden looks perfect, and daniella schiffer enjoys the star turn as the girl who gets the dp, but, for me, it's ellen who steals the scene.
what impresses me most about ellen is the energy and motion she brings to her cowgirl and reverse cowgirl positions. she's a petite and very fit girl, so it's really something to see her humping her small, firm body atop a hunky stud. check out the reverse cowgirl at 8.31 - 9.20. ellen's legs are splayed, wide apart, so we get a full view of the rhythmic cunt-massage she's giving the boner beneath her. she wiggles and waggles her hips, her tits are rocking free of her bra, and her round shoulders are rolling around as she finds a sexy rhythm. she licks her lips and looks below to study her own gyrations astride her partner's lap. she turns back her head to flash a cheeky grin at the man, and he responds with a delighted smile, genuinely impressed by the skill with which she's fucking him. she grabs his hair and looks him in the eye, swaying more slowly as she does so, rippling her belly and thrusting her torso with exquisite deliberation to maximise the pleasure to his buried cock.
we see ellen's cowgirl from 9.20 to 9.34, and then again from 10.09 to 10.49. it's the same technique as for the reverse cowgirl, except that now we're treated to a remarkable view of the rhythmic arching of ellen's back and the undulations of her pert little buttocks. she's looking back over her shoulder to admire the energetic contortions of her own lower body, and to examine the effect as her cunt squeezes the cock for all it's worth. there's a brief cut away, to a shot of bobbi eden and the master of the house. they are watching ellen's performance as we are, and bobbi winces with lust at the spectacle. this is a cue for a round of the teasing chime effects to begin again on the music track, and, as we return to the sight of ellen's expert motion, it's almost too much to bear...
it's interesting to watch 22 year-old english newcomer donna marie in 'house of games'. apologies to fans from elsewhere in the world who won't get this reference, but donna marie's mancunian (?) accent and her copper-tinted hair put me immediately in mind of elsie tanner or rita fairclough, as they looked way back in the prime of youth. (elsie and rita were fiery redheads in the long-running, manchester-based soap opera 'coronation street', which is something of an institution on british tv.) this only goes to show that all sorts of regional accents - be they english, american, irish,* australian or any other - can bring variety and interest to english-speaking dialogue and vocals in private movies (* hint, hint, fiona!).
i've just arrested donna marie in a freeze frame at scene selection 3, 4.52, to savour the image of her blowjob gaze at the camera, cheeks drawn in as she sucks, her appealing bright blue eyes set off perfectly against the 'elsie tanner' red rinse of her stylishly coiffured hair.
