Amateur night incest
The yucky pornographer JW Ties outdoes the competition in yuckiness with "The Family Way", a tender saga of incest in which the film director gets to play daddy. Yes, fans, you can see Mr. Ties humping his daughters, whether already pregnant or just to get them pregnant, all with -at no extra cost - endless disclaimers that the artistes are not really related- this is just good, clean fun!
I have studied incest dramas for many years, and on screen the big change is that now all punches are pulled. Fictional incest is no longer permitted -all fictional characters must be unrelated. So for "Family Way" everybody acts like brother and sister, father and daughter, with the occasional half-hearted cop-out of "step".
Now if our brilliant auteur JW were presentable, and didn't look like an inbred creep with thinning hair and potbelly sticking out almost as far as his pregnant daughter's belly, maybe this would fly for an undiscriminating audience. But he has zero talent and is not ready or suitable or photogenic enough for the assignment. What we get is attractive but untalented actresses as sisters, simulating sex with JW and an equally untalented actor as their brother. Or did I forget to mention, he's only their STEP-brother. Sorry.
It's pretty revolting, yet surprisingly bland. If you can tolerate looking at ugly guys, and so many decades of watching porn, soft and hard, has inured me to ugliness, then this junker is almost watchable. How Mr. Ties can think this is competitive with professionally produced erotica I'll never know, but then again I would have predicted Troma and its how bad can it get philosophy would have self- destructed about 40 years ago.
