Car Wash Angels (1996) Review

Car Wash Angels (1996) - Foreign Cover
Jim Holliday put out a movie series that I absolutely fell in love with as a teenager, and young adult. There was something raw about this one, and even though I first saw it on the Spice Network, without all of the penetration, I was absolutely impressed with it. Why? Well, the beginning of the movie lines up all of the women that star in this movie, in regular make up, and dresses. None are wearing underwear, and they are lit in regular lighting, nothing too extreme. Then you are introduced to the rest of the characters, including the male talent. T.T. Boy and Joey Silvera are two of the most famous here. Of course, it’s the all-star lineup of women that really get me every time. This includes some of the best female talent from the 1990s. For me, however, it’s really Jill Kelly that always had me fascinated in this movie. Jill Kelly didn’t always have breast implants, mind you, she had this smooth, California skin, and blonde hair that really attracted me at a young age. More than the other actresses in this movie, Jill Kelly had me glued to the television screen. Like with other movies on this site, I didn’t see the hardcore edition of “Car Wash Angels” until recently. This movie is fascinating to me, in that it’s got a paper-thin story, and well, a lot of sex, as you’d expect. But there’s more to this than meets the eye, especially 3 or 4 minutes into the movie, where you’re thrown into a dueling blow job scene. Of course, this is just the beginning as there are more than 2 hours of movie to get through in this Jim Holliday classic. Well, I don’t know if it’s a classic, but Jim Holliday’s name is attached, so you know it’s got some longevity.

As I said, this has an all-star cast. The women featured in this movie include Tammi Ann, Juli Ashton, Bionca, Crystal Breeze, Careena Collins, Sindee Coxx, Sid Deuce, Emily, Paisley Hunter, Kylie Ireland, Jill Kelly, Shayla LaVeaux, Jordan Lee, Micky Lynn, and Sydney St. James. In the director’s cut version, there are 20 some odd scenes, but if you get the original VHS or DVD it seems like there’s less. Some of the scenes aren’t drawn out like other gonzo porn releases, which is worth noting. In fact, one of the opening scenes featuring Jake Steed and Peter North doesn’t even go full length, it goes from a dueling blow job to double penetration without much romance. I guess that’s what some psychologist want to state is a “male dominated” fantasy land. A casual sex element that is not romantic, but rather animalistic, and dare I say misogynistic.

After the initial sexual romp, you get an interesting note on the setting. The setting, which is a throwback to another movie I saw, but can’t put a finger on states: Burton Allen Institute of Nursing, Cheerleading, Air Hostessing, Radio-TV, Erotic Feature Dancing, Exotic Striptease, Ecdysiasm, Super Runway Modeling, Culinary Arts, Escort Servicing, and Car Wash Management, etc. This sign is the introduction to the setting, and the reason why the story seems to be a mix of gonzo type pornography, and plot points that dive into the golden age of porn. There are moments where you’re in a class room, and an office, then a car getting washed, and even inside the car wash building itself. It’s like a school, but of course it’s not, it’s a porno, right? Right.

Moving right along, you’re going to find that “Car Wash Angels” has a lot of straight forward sex, mostly with random men and women, blondes, and with little introduction to the scenarios, just simple transitions with Joey Silvera talking to the ladies, or having a meeting, or making some jokes, and then right into the sex. Lots of duos occur, then cut to all the women in class with Jim Holliday, and then some stellar work by none other than T.T. Boy. If there’s a favorite scene here, it’s 43 minutes into the feature, where T.T. Boy goes on a rampage. He not only gets with Jill Kelly, he gets with nearly every woman in the movie! I kid you not. I’m not sure if there were multiple takes for this scene, or if he just went through each woman in one take, but he went on to have torrid sex with Jill Kelly, Kylie Ireland, and the whole crew. He goes through every position you’d expect, and without a condom in sight. He has a real connection with Jill Kelly, although he doesn’t finish with her here, he just goes around the dorm room to each woman and gets it on, meanwhile others are involved in masturbation and oral sex with one another. T.T. Boy’s scene here is not only a championship scene if you ask me, it’s one that I don’t know how to really compare, as he really lasts a long time, does so passionately, and doesn’t bust too early though he basically gets through several women with relative ease. It’s here that the true fantasy of this movie really strikes you. Towards the end of the scene, after having sex with several women, he finally ends things with anal, and this was far before Viagra was the norm in movies. The dorm room setting, or hostel looking studio session works well here, with all of the Angels cheering him on before he finally cums. This was a fascinating scene, and can only applaud the performance, assuming it was done in one take. If not, still, what a fun ride for this guy and the “angels”. According to other reviews, he cums 4 times in the course of having sex with 7 women, so good for him.

“Car Wash Angels” keeps progressing with the skin, allowing you to get a few short clips including a blow job, foot job, and T.T. Boy once again enjoying some time with Jill Kelly, only this time in a car. Then you’re treated to lesbian sequences, and Joey Silvera’s pot belly and semi-shaved erection with two women. He’s a legend, so he gets a pass on the physique, and at least he didn’t let himself go like say, Ron Jeremy did. He’s funny, seriously. He does comedy in this movie and he can act well, even though it becomes apparent that he doesn’t last nearly as long as he may have in other movies. There’s one point where he obviously loses his erection and has to try and get back up while two women wait for him. This was awkward to watch, and only those that know what truly is going on will notice. Why Holliday left this in the film, is beyond me, but it works as he seems to get a second wind and then masturbates to completion. Of course, the movie progresses into another sequence, and continual pornographic leanings.

Perhaps one of the funniest things I’ve seen in reviewing porn thus far is a dual scene at one point in which T.T. Boy and a long-haired rocker have their way with a brunette. I’ve never seen this before, but the long-haired rocker punches the woman in the butt, several times. He slaps her butt, but he also punches the crack, while she’s wearing jeans. The two get really turned on and he eventually rips the jeans off of her and we’re off to the races. This leads to a rim job, and double penetration, amidst other things. This scene seemed out of place, but watching the two guys rip jeans off of a woman and watching her reaction of bliss was definitely worth checking out “Car Wash Angels” for sure. It is perhaps one of the best threesome I’ve seen in adult movie reviewing thus far. Oh, and the long hair rocker in this scene, Tom Byron! Careena Collins, Tom Byron and T.T. Boy get one hell of a scene going here, but that punching is just odd to me. She squirts really well at one point, and then licks it off the table they are having sex on, which is raw. Collins is seriously into this scene, and Byron and T.T. Boy know what they are doing, and are genuinely into this one. This scene alone is worth it all folks.

The movie ends with a pair of scenes, one that is a 4-way lesbian scene that is what you’d expect, and then the finale, Shayla LaVeaux and Bobby Vitale, before Joey ends the movie, and leaves a small opening for the sequel. 23 total scenes according to the Internet Adult Film Database, and not half bad. They are shortened, and the running time is long, but the sex isn’t always full, if that makes sense.

The story is nonsensical. The settings are a mix of sets and outdoors. The lighting is hit or miss, and the direction isn’t great. But there is passion involved in some of the scenes, including the way that some of the women react to their male and female partners. The squirting scenes, the multiple woman orgy, and of course the three some with Collins, Byron, and Boy make this one well worth exploring. For me, however, it’s Jill Kelly that gets me going each time. That’s why I would come back to this one, more than anything else, I like Jill Kelly before she got implants, as she just seemed like a girl I went to school with in college. I don’t know, I’d love to meet her, but that’s the fan in me.

“Car Wash Angels” led to sequels. This 1990s porno is hit or miss, depending on what you want. It feels like gonzo at times, but it has a story. Holliday does well in production, and the sex is edited at times, cut short, and involves a lot of stop and go. I’m not sure that this is a classic, but since I remember it from the Spice Network, I enjoyed watching the hardcore version for once. The music sucks, by the way, but you don’t watch porn for the music, do you? Well sometimes.

I give “Car Wash Angels” a 3 out of 5.


You can buy “Car Wash Angels” via a lot of outlets, and even stream it on VOD for a small price. If I were to do so, I’d pick the Jill Kelly scenes, and the three some with Collins. Other than that, this has some good moments to consider, but it’s not as good as it once was.
