And immediately the pimply pubescents are ushered into a magical new world filled with thoughts of flesh and boners.

Years come, years go. So as 2007 fades into the new horizons of 2008, let's be freshly grateful, then, that flesh on film lasts forever. The past twelve months have provided a bumper crop of delectable actresses unveiling themselves on DVD.
