Aroused (1985)

Aroused (1985) Cover
Today we are visiting the year 1985 for a movie that was ordered to be destroyed in the United States. The only way that you can get this movie is to get an edited version on DVD, have the original VHS tape from what it was released, the original movie reels from the premier of the movie in theaters, or if you bought it outside of the United States. I currently don’t know any companies that sell this, and I happened upon a copy of this at a yard sale where a guy was selling a box of porn. Lucky me, I guess? This is a movie that starts Josephine Carrington, Sheri St. Clair, Traci Lords, Tom Byron, Ali Moore, Greg Derek, Peter North, and Steve Powers. The movie is called, “Aroused” and it was released in 1985, and stars, well, you know that it stars Traci Lords. But is it any good? Well, let’s see what the movie is about.

The opening of the movie features Lords in a car with whom I assume is a young Tom Byron, I can’t really tell at first glance. The scene features a guy asking Lords to get ready for a night of fun and that she should allow the people she will meet to help her become uninhibited. She is then taken to a house where a few women start to undress her and then put a collar on her. They then move her to what is for sure, Tom Byron. Tom Byron is waiting with his pants off, a leather jacket on and sunglasses on.

The women blindfold Traci Lords and ask her to blow Tom Byron. The first major scene features Traci Lords learning how to blow with Tom Byron. Meanwhile there are two women trying to show her, and another woman getting naked. Tom Byron says that she needs to practice a bit, and one of the ladies volunteers to show her how to do it. She then takes off Lords’ blindfold and shows her on Tom Byron how to blow someone properly. The opening blow job scene features Josephine Carrington, Sheri St. Clair, Traci Lords, and Tom Byron. It goes from a tutorial to all of the women tasting Byron, and then him cumming onto Lords’ mouth. The best part is after he cums Lords continues to lick and suck, creating one hell of a ending point, and definitely an interesting opener for this movie. The set is a well lit mansion, with the ladies being classic 1980s porno women, all natural, not shaved, big hair, and of course Lords with her curly hair.

The scene changes and we see Lords typing at a typewriter. Yes, a real typewriter, since this is 1985 after all. She takes a break from writing a novel or a story, and she gets a pair of binoculars out and starts to look at the neighbors. She tries to see what is going on, and it seems like they are fighting. But in reality, they are just making up, and eventually start to kiss. There’s some soft piano music playing, and Lords watches with her binoculars as the two start to make out a little.

Sex comes through next and it features Ali Moore and Greg Derek. The music changes to a pop song, and the two start to get it on. Greg Derek is a blonde haired man in his late 20s from what it appears, and Ali Moore has brown hair tight body, natural breasts, and not shaved. There’s no condoms in these 1980s movies, so it’s all straight forward sex. The pop song throws me off, the set here is an average apartment bedroom, with lackluster wallpaper, and interior design. Ali Moore gives an ok blow job, the camera moving forward into it a bit and the song really getting annoying. Moore looks like a fourth grade teacher, with a short hair cut that goes almost to her shoulders. The sex is adequate, a little bit of moaning, nothing too crazy, and just forward progress. The music shifts after the two go through 69, and it turns into a techno 1980s beat. Eventually Greg Derek cums on Moore’s pubic hair and that’s the end of the scene. A somewhat lackluster sex scene with minimal chemistry between the two.

On the other end, Traci Lords is getting aroused and she decides to touch herself a little before she calls a friend. The two start talking about how it’s hard to write a novel, and that Lords can’t complete her novel because she keeps thinking about sex. Her friend then tells her to have sex with her man and it’ll all go away.

This leads them to hanging up, and we see the next sex scene start. The next scene features Peter North and Kristara Barrington enjoying oral sex to start. Barrington has red heels and a blueish green dress on. North is young, athletic, and has serious chemistry with the brunette that is not shaved at all. The two start on a makeshift bed in front of a fire place, and it’s the most passionate the movie has gotten thus far, at around 28 minutes. Barrington is an Asian woman and moans quite a bit to start. The sex goes multiple positions, with a lot of attention paid to the insertion of Peter North, and he’s truly enjoying himself in this one. The two go at it a good amount of time, and then Peter North delivers a good money shot with a lot of cum, even getting it into Barrington’s hair. The two laugh about it, and that’s it. This was a long one take shot, with Peter North and Kristara Barrington really enjoying the sex, and a lot of moaning from Barrington. The money shot was classic North, and this scene really makes for an otherwise boring movie.

We go back to Traci Lords home and Steve Powers shows up. He says that she needs to take a break. She doesn’t think so, and kicks him out of the house. But he barges back in and is upset. He says that he can help her relax, but she refuses.

Steve Powers says that she is going to relax even if he has to force her, so we get a cut from the writing table and to a bed where the two are naked. Steve Powers and Traci Lords start with oral, and the sex scene goes well, as it is the second to last showcase. The scene is in a bedroom, and it’s lit a bit better than the previous scene, although the tape I have is in need of a remaster. Lords and Powers work well together, he seems to know what buttons to press and make Lords moan a bit. The music here is a jazzy saxophone tune, which isn’t bad, but isn’t great either. The two go into 69 and it’s not too bad, but Lords isn’t moaning as much by this point. The two go through multiple positions, including doggy style, and before long Powers is getting ready to blow. Lords moans a lot in this scene, and Powers gives a good performance, while the director chooses to move back and forth with the angles. There’s a hinge of authenticity to this scene, and it really is more than just another sex scene, which I’m sure Traci Lords’ fans are going to enjoy. The sequence ends abruptly, without a money shot.

After the sex we are back to the typewriter and Traci Lords is just typing away. After this, the camera focuses back on the mansion from the beginning of the film, and we are treated to one last orgy.

The orgy in this movie’s final sex scene features Josephine Carrington, Sheri St. Clair, Traci Lords, Steve Powers, and Tom Byron. The women take turn having sex with both Powers and Byron, and everyone involved seems to enjoy the process. There’s a lot of moaning, some decent oral sex, and all the women taking turns going at it with the men. This is a loud one, so if you have it turned up, you may wake the neighbors. Of course, Traci is quite loud, but it’s also Barrington, and St. Clair that make some noise. There are authentic orgasms here, with a focus on loud moaning, and legitimate sex with a very young Tom Byron. Byron eventually cums on Lords’ stomach and it’s one hell of an ender.

The movie ends with Steve Powers and Traci Lords repeating the same thing from the beginning of the film, and that’s it. She puts on a pair of panties, and we get the credits to roll, and that’s the end of this movie from 1985.

I give “Aroused” a 3 out of 5.


This movie wasn’t great. It had a decent plot, and it features some good camera work, ok music, and it had some interesting sex scenes. If you’re a fan of Traci Lords and can hunt this one down legally, go for it. She moans, screams, and enjoys herself throughout. Tom Byron fans will love his youth, and Peter North’s performance was definitely good. However, as a whole, the scenes were a bit short, the transfer wasn’t grand, and some of the sex was a bit boring. It’s not a great porn, but it’s a testament to the 1985 movie going experience, and therefore it should get at least a 3 out of 5.
