Chalk up another one for director/writer Robert McCallum. In an era of increasingly dreary pornvids, he’s turned out a gem that sparkles with humor and throbs with sex. Superstarlet Barbara Dare is an engaging actress who handles the deadpan comedy of Barbarian with ease. Backed by power pussies Erica Boyer, Nina Hartley and Jeanna Fine, this Conan-with-tits near extravaganza becomes one of Dare’s better vehicles. In the first of her two sex scenes, the tireless Barbara takes on three studs. In the final scene she fucks Randy West-to death. Meanwhile, Nina has tongued Jeanna from pink to pooper, and assisted Nikki Knights in sucking West’s wienie prior to lapping Knights’s snatch while being doggied by West. For her part, Boyer lays a killer blowjob on Scott Irish. This is followed by a great tit-fuck, but the ensuing pussy-probe annoyingly consists of the same two shots repeated over and over.

The big news, however, is Jeanna Fine, who goes down, down, down on Peter North’s giant Johnson in a deep-throat demo that will make your balls rumble. North, of course, responds with his own trick: shooting a load over her head and probably onto the shoe of the lighting assistant. Blessed with a witty script, better than-average sound and musical score, and a cast of luscious labes, Barbara a barbarian you’ll want to take home.
