My porn collection has doubled to six movies since I reviewed Different Strokes.  This is entirely due to the acting talents of Anthony Rosano, who here plays Mulder.  After watching him in Who's the Boss?: A XXX Parody, I wondered what else he'd done.  I watched some trailers and (non-pornographic) clips, and this and the Graduate parody seemed the best of the lot.  In fact, I quite enjoyed the porn-less version of this movie on YouTube, even though I've seen maybe one episode of The X-Files.  He and Kimberly Kane, who's apparently a dead ringer for Dana Delany, are both quite good (she won an adult film acting award, and he was nominated, for this movie) and also have an appealing chemistry.  The mood of the film is appropriately atmospheric, although it seems that it's more horror-focused than the more sci-fi-oriented source material.

So why the low grade?  Well, unfortunately I didn't care for any of the sex scenes besides Rosano's and Delany's, which manages to be both hot and romantic, coming as it does after a believable confession of love.  With all the other pairings, and group sex, I hadn't the slightest interest in seeing those people together, and I found the sex boring and seemingly endless.  If the movie were just what's on YouTube, plus that love scene, I'd probably go with a B+, but the running time would be more than an hour less than it actually is.

The "parody" in the title by the way is misleading.  Unlike most of the other movies in the parody-porn subgenre (more about that under WtBXXXP), this is not played for laughs, although there are moments of humor, mostly in Mulder and Scully's quips.  I think the "dark" was put in there to suggest this but it makes it sound like it'll be black comedy porn, which it isn't either.

Evan Stone, who's the male Club Goer, would be a Bouncer in The Graduate XXX, while Rod Fontana, who's Skinner, would be the Night Clerk there.
