Blonde hair, Lizard tattoo, calls herself "Melanie from London" but has more of a Sussex/Hants accent. She's probably hugely famous but I am rubbish with names/IDs. Also, what is BGAFD policy on bonus scenes? I ask because the attached pic is from a bonus complete scene on "Not Just Another 8Teen Movie #2" DVD (R18 version). As it's a bonus scene she's not named or identified on the box or credits (the box doesn't even mention there *is* a bonus scene). Would such a scene merit inclusion in the BGAFD database (it's not in there at present), or would that upset people who buy the VHS and therefore don't get it?

I think that this might be Melanie X, a so far unlisted girl, but not for long looking at how many films she has done at Jaded.

If the scene is in the film and is not a preview most likely it would be included with a note saying it`s a bonus scene on DVD only.

It is indeed a full scene in the standard US gonzo format (interview - with the director trying to put on an English accent - flashing, oral, vaginal, anal, cumshot etc) as per the other scenes on the DVD. Quite a lot of Zero Entertainment films seem to have an extra scene on the DVD but usually they flag that up on the cover, so this one came as a surprise. Especially the fact it was a Brit girl. In the interview she said it was only her second scene in the US. Shame that it just got hidden away in the bonus features then, although to be honest it's not the greatest of scenes.

I'd check to make sure that it doesn't appear in the 'main event' of another title.....I don't suppose US companies are any more charitable than their Euro counterparts, so it would seem a bit over-generous on their part to shoot a scene solely for inclusion as a bonus rather than re-use one from elsewhere........

[golostruda]

Not so. It is specifically tailored to this title (you can tell from the interview). Many Zero Entertainment titles do the same. I assume they must shoot 7 scenes rather than 6 for each title and relegate the "worst one" to bonus scene on DVD status. Can't criticise them for it, but I'm with you in thinking "why don't they save 6 bonus scenes to make one whole new movie". I think the fact that ZE have different directors doing each of their series may be the explanation - the director in all the bonus scenes I've seen (as well as the scene's scenario) are clearly tailored to that specific series, and I guess by the time they've saved six "Not Just Another 8Teen Movie" scenes, for example, they are two years down the line and the actresses are no longer the "fresh talent" they were at the time of shooting. The way companies like RLD and ZE operate in the States is very different, it has to be said, to UK companies, most of which are 'auteur' led. Obviously it would be madness for Ben Dover, Marino or Omar, for example, to "waste" a scene as they kind of run their own companies, but that isn't the case with these new US companies (many of which have six or seven different directors running lines through them). Vive le difference.
On the other hand, maybe the Yanks have just woken up to the fact that people expect bonus material on a DVD these days. Brit producer-directors have been a bit shit on this score. OK, so BD includes some extra scenes and a bit of pissing on his titles, but it's usually the exact same 10 minutes of "bonus footage" on half a dozen or more different DVD titles. Grrr.

[jj]

I see- in which case, cataloguing/searching for a specific girl in ZE's titles might be a bit of a nightmare.
Grrrr, Part 2...........
What prompted me to post was, with London Shaggers 2, I ended up with about 4 copies, none of which would play the final scene. I even mailed Anarchy, with the predictable result. I eventually got the scene, on LS5, where it had been included as a 'bonus'......yeah, sure: thanks, guys........
