4.0 out of 5 stars
Far from my favorite Misty film, but a must-have for fans, January 21, 2006
The Seduction of Misty Mundae is sort of an homage to the work of Joseph Sarno by director/co-writer (and founder of eI Independent Cinema) Michael Raso. It's the story of the sexual awakening of an innocent young woman during a week-long stay with her aunt in the country. Misty Mundae was really the only actress in the Seduction Cinema stable right for the starring role; the film title included her name because she is the embodiment of the naïve, innocent, girl-next-door.
Misty is rather shy and withdrawn when she arrives at the home of Aunt Inga (Julian Wells) - who is the opposite of shy and withdrawn. Inga knows how to entertain herself (I think you know what I mean here), and she's none too quiet when she's doing it - which makes for quite an eye-opening experience for the inexperienced Misty. The curious young woman soon seeks Inga's guidance on the ways of womanhood, let us say, but it is a local boy who gives Misty her first sexual experience - one that is less than satisfactory, as the guy is a complete jerk. That bad experience sort of moves Inga to take more of a guiding hand in young Misty's sexual development, to the point of making sure that the lass, who arrived as a girl, leaves as a woman.
This is a quality film, worlds above most of the fluff Seduction Cinema has put out in the past. I just feel that the film drags at certain times, and the story doesn't explore the main characters as deeply as the director seems to think it does. Of course, when one of your co-stars shows up for the first day of shooting without having seen the script (that would be Julian Wells, and I should note that showing up with no idea about the movie you're about to make is by no means uncommon at Seduction Cinema), you're just not going to be able to plumb the depths of any character's soul. The erotic scenes themselves may disappoint some fans, as well, as they do tend to be slow-moving and fairly bland for the most part. For her part, though, Misty is wonderful, particularly in the later stages of the film. I don't like seeing her with a guy, but she handles those scenes exceptionally well. Although I'm not all that enamored with The Seduction of Misty Mundae as a whole, I do think it features some of Misty's best work.
Interestingly enough, it turns out that this was actually the first time Misty Mundae and Julian Wells worked together, which you would never know from watching the film, as the two seem to be very comfortable with one another. Although it was released during the last week of 2004, this film was actually shot in the fall of 2001. The delay doesn't mean this is a bad movie; it just somehow got lost in the shuffle. As usual, Seduction Cinema does throw a variety of goodies in with the film itself. You get a commentary with the director and producer, an interview with the director, a photo shoot with Julian Wells, a little behind-the-scenes footage, a music CD of the film's soundtrack, several trailers of upcoming films, and a "naughty vintage peep show" from 1965. The peep show isn't all that good (especially when you think about the fact that the skanky girl would now be a senior citizen), but the behind-the-scenes stuff is the biggest disappointment - it's about four minutes long and doesn't even include Misty Mundae. And why can't we have a Misty Mundae photo shoot if we're going to have one with the much less attractive Julian Wells? As for the soundtrack (which is performed by the Pink Delicates and includes a number of bonus cuts from the film Curious Obsessions), it isn't all that bad (it's actually sort of relaxing), but it's not the kind of thing anyone is going to be jamming to on the way home from work.
Misty fans will definitely want to add this film to their collection - even if it isn't as entertaining or interesting as several of her other movies - because The Seduction of Misty Mundae does showcase much of Misty's limitless talent.

Good story with a lot of talent, but not enough heat., March 13, 2006
The Seduction of Misty Mundae could have been a softcore classic, but didn't deliver sufficiently in too many of the sex scenes for me to be really impressed.
The story was great. Young, innocent, curious Misty has to visit her aunt for a week. Under the guidance of her more experienced aunt, Misty begins to act on her sexual desires. The main actresses, Misty and Julian Wells, did very well. The technical aspects (video, audio, cinematography) of the movie were also very good. But enough of that. This is a softcore review.
There are seven sex scenes. Two are boy/girl, two are girl/girl, two are girl solo, and one is girl/girl/girl. Five of them didn't impress me much. The masturbation scenes were short and too tame. One of the boy/girl scenes only consisted of oral sex on the guy. The other boy/girl scene focused entirely on Misty's face. I'm sure that was intentional and she did give a great orgasm, but the scene was R rated, at best. The girl/girl/girl scene was weak and had no relevance to the story. I'm sure it was only there as a way to shoehorn Darian Cane into the movie.
The two girl/girl scenes were much better. The first one was between Julian and Allanah Rhodes. Both women are attractive and the scene was decently explicit. The second scene was the last scene in the movie. It was an epic fifteen minute coupling between Misty and Julian. It had a LOT of really hot kissing and foreplay between the two women. When it got to the real action, things just got better. Misty gives an excellent orgasm and Julian delivered a pretty good one too.
If you're a Misty Mundae fan, or curious to see her in something, I'd recommend this one. But if you're looking for lots of hot, explicit, softcore sex, then I'd say pass.

The perfect Girl Next Door, January 30, 2006
If you enjoy seeing the innocent Girl Next Door do all of the things you always wished she would do, then this is the movie for you. Misty Mundae is perfect as a pure, yet sad, young girl who slowly discovers her sexuality under the tutelage of her aunt(?), Julian Wells. The acting, at least by Misty and Julian, is above average for this type of movie. The pure sensuality exuded by Misty is about the best you'll find in any movie. The full frontal shots of Misty, with her petite features, dark hair, and ivory skin, are not to be missed. This is actually the first Misty Mundae movie I've seen. I understand she's been in many more soft-core films, playing vampires and such, but for my money if you've ever fantasized about the Girl Next Door and the wonderful things you want her to do, then this is the movie to watch.
