Taboo II (1982)

The Plot.
A horny young man has sex with Barbara who tells him about her affair with her son. He wonders what it’d be like to hook up with his beautiful sister and their gorgeous mother, while the sister starts thinking about their manly father.

The Cast.
Kay Parker – Barbara Scott
Dorothy LeMay – Sherry
Kevin James – Junior
Honey Wilder – Joyce
Eric Edwards – Greg
Juliet Anderson – Gina
Ron Jeremy – Orgy Guy

Production Value.
Fairly average. The video holds up well with contemporary low budget cinema of the period which always adds weight to the quality.

The Porn.
Primarily male-female or threesome. The theme of incest is much stronger in this movie.

Review.
I am not sure what’s weirder; the fact that Junior asks his girlfriend to help him sleep with his sister or the fact that she actually goes along with it?

It was clear that incest-themed porn movies were profitable after the first instalment in the series and so director Kirdy Stevens decided to answer the call for more with exactly that. In a rare example of continuity across a porno series the movie directly ties in with the first although introduces a new family to sample the forbidden fruit. It is in fact Paul’s girlfriend from the first movie’s family and her brother, Junior, gets in on the action early with Paul’s mom. Forget incest this town is interbreeding as well.

Watching this series again I can’t help but feel in hindsight they were playing it safe with the first Taboo movie. Incest isn’t the main theme but is rather something that is built towards. In that respect the film played out like a family drama whereas this drops all the pretence and is firmly about a family determined to screw their brains out with one another. The whole tone of the film is more slapstick than the first with some genuinely funny moments in places which help move it away from the realities of incest rather than try to promote the act which the first sort-of did do albeit unintentionally.

The porn is infinitely better than the first movie and is varied enough to keep you entertained. This was made in 1982 when a lot of porn movies were becoming increasingly cheap and cheesy but this holds on to the golden years of porn in its traditions of fairly decent acting, story and production. The ending scene is probably my favourite where Sherry (LeMay), after masturbating with her teddy bear, decides to sneak in her parent’s bedroom and screw her dad while her mother sleeps beside them. Then when the mother starts to wake up he boots her off and then ravishes the mother.

Conclusion.
Far superior to the first. Hugely entertaining with some excellent sex scenes. Recommended.

Rating: 5/5
