Shades of Kink Vol. 4 – Sweet Sinner Films – Director – James Avalon – Cast – Chanel Preston, Cassidy Klein, Riley Reid, Karla Kush, Michael Vegas, Tommy Pistol, Steven St. Croix
The series from Sweet Sinner continues with another nicely essayed story and plot from writer/director Avalon. The continued exploration of the sexual world of fetish, S &M, etc. Since the introduction of the world wide popularity of the book “Shades of Gray”, it has propelled the interest in this area of sexuality to new heights for couples of all ages. In this series, of course Avalon and his cast take a true hardcore look at that world. Once again a small, but excellent cast lend their varied talents to this release.
The story revolves around a congressman (Michael Vegas) who has an ego the size of Texas and feels he can do or have anything any time. When he gets turned away by a woman all hell begins to break loose. He makes this woman his obsession and along the way we get to meet his very spoiled wife (Karla Kush), A very young, sexy escort (Riley Reid) and the woman who is an extremely relentless dom (Chanel Preston). There are also key roles from Steven St. Croix as the congressman’s Chief of Staff and Tommy Pistol and Cassidy Klein as sex slaves.
It gets underway with Vegas having a late night go with his paid escort Riley and then a switch to the next day where Vegas, his assistant, his Chief of Staff are together going over some paperwork. The assistant drops a heavy load on his already hurt foot and he goes off on her and she lets him have it big time before she walks out leaving him without an assistant. He goes off again and tells his chief to find an assistant. Next we get introduced to Chanel who is there to see about being his assistant.
When his egomaniacal way gets going with her she also tells him what she thinks of him and walks out on him. He tells his chief he wants every bit of info on her. When the chief reluctantly gets it all he tells Vegas he may not like it. He calls her and again she tells him no, but we get to see a hint of her dom side here. Now he wants to go to this private club she is part of and find out even more and that’s when things really will begin to take a turn and toss him into am world he never knew he could be a part of, let alone enjoy. The rest you can see, enjoy and be entertained by and discover what this world can be like.
The BDSM club scenes are done very well and create just the right energy needed for the scenes. The sexuality that occurs is the real deal throughout the film. The performances by the cast are extremely well done and realistic. Michael Vegas again proving that he is one of porn’s underrated pure actors and Chanel shines in another strong role as does Steven St. Croix with his always professional approach to whatever role he plays. This is a well done story with a couple of places where the focus gets lost are isn’t necessary and takes away from the overall production. Still, overall it is a well done glimpse into the world of BDSM and the pleasures that can be derived from it. If you want something entertaining, a bit different then “Shades of Kink Vol. 4” is a film I definitely recommend getting.
