Michael Lucas’ romance with Manhattan continues in this lightly-scripted all-action movie, POUNDING THE PAVEMENT (LucasEntertainment.com). Maybe he’s just keeping the pot boiling while waiting for funds or inspiration for another masterpiece like La Dolce Vita or Dangerous Liaisons? Well, here the pot boils very nicely indeed, in three duos and two trios, featuring a drool-producing variety of men both familiar and fresh. Of course, magical Michael’s own appearance in scene four with Claudio Martin and Kurt Wild is the peak (such a peak that Wild shoots two loads), but nothing has been spared to make each scene maximally macho and nasty. Redhead Blu Kennedy is as inexplicably irresistible as ever in a roof-garden rectum-wrecker with two other young males nearly as attractive as he, fucking and getting fucked in full sight of office workers in tall towers with telescopes. The final, frenzied duo pays full homage to the male foot, as well as the male inches. All the scenes take place in settings that hint at culture and Bohemianism. (maybe the next major opus is La Boheme?) The settings’ colors, by the way, are exceptionally rich and deep, making all that manflesh stand out almost luridly, reminiscent of those nearly three-dimensional ivory bodies against red-black voids in Caravaggio’s darkest Baroque art. This is a swell movie. The Director’s Cut features rooftop urination onto Hanson and Alencar, and Lucas standing in a bathtub peeing with remarkably good aim into the open mouth of super-cute Wild (this shot from a stunning angle). Lucas pees up into his own mouth, too. In Behind the Scenes, the fully-exposed rooftop horseplay is the most fun—that and Lucas exerting his hypnotic interview style on innocent-looking twenty-one year old Wild, who discusses his three children! See pix, synopsis, and buy HERE.
Widescreen BIG BIGGER BIGGEST PART 2 (RagingStallion.Com) is directed by Michael (sigh) Brandon, but its cover-star Roman Ragazzi looks like Sam Dixon might look on steroids, and a damned good way that is to look, too! Ragazzi’s a big ol’ brunet bodybuilder-bear right out of a superhero movie, and we’re talking IMAX! He’s the mythological epicenter of the movie, the erotic ideal that everyone’s leather-clad bodies are striving for, but everyone’s hot, handsome, and hung. The movie takes place in an abstract, dilettante-dungeon space (shadowy hallways, chain-link fencing, a sling). Chests heave, abs ripple, chaps flap, mouths gape, cocks pump, cum splatters, it’s a party you’d love to attend, but would hate to have to clean up after. The other cast members are Antonio Biaggi, Justin Christopher, Enrique Currero, Bo Matthews, Tristan Phoenix, Dak Ramsey, Damian Rios, and let us never forget the throbbing music of J.D. Slater, nor the videography of Ben Leon. See lots of Raging Stallion goodies HERE. See pix and a synopsis of this one, and buy it HERE, and see a FREE TRAILER HERE.

CHANNEL 1 . Okay. Put on your magic boots and sword and summon your charming hand-puppet companion (voice by an English actor) and dive bravely into the tangled jungle of Channel 1 ‘s interlocking franchises and mad-maze of a website. Your reward will be four damned good movies, each delightful in a different way:
1993’s RAGS TO RICHES (C1R.Com) is a Catalina comedy with (1) a whole lot of healthy, tanned, moderately short-haired surfer types, (2) a fun, ahead-of-its-time, intelligent suburban gay couple, and (3) an interesting story (A derelict concert pianist wanders out of an alley into the fun couple’s home. Besides filling the home with music, the pianist also arouses testosterone all around,). Above all, the movie offers (4) early Zak Spears. Zak Spears was the next biggest thing in porn after Jack Wrangler. He was the James Garner/Dennis Quaid of gay porn, a handsome, hunky, virile, slightly swishy dish with wit in his very walk and a twinkle in his eye which rose straight up from his scrotum. Zak is but a minor character in this tale, but his hypnotically handsome face, erotic athleticism, and the sparkle in his smile are the payoff of the funny plot. Below, Zak gets blown and gets bucks for it! Pics courtesy C1R.com. Buy it HERE.

What a hoot!!! 1988’s THE BIG ONE (C1R.Com) features pretty damned good earthquake effects and then creates several plausible reasons why guys after a shock would want cock. One furniture-mover asks another for “a hand” and gets mouth and asshole thrown in. Guys trapped in an elevator assume this may be their last chance for joy (“That tastes good, sir.” “You’ll go far in this company.”). Another pair celebrate their survival. A doctor’s attempt at resuscitation starts mouth-to-mouth but moves farther south. Some hunks have funny hair and mustaches, but all have very serious cocks and very serious holes to stick them in. Below, the earthquake live, and the elevator improvisers. . Pics courtesy C1R.com. Buy HERE after August 5th.

1990’s HEAD STRUCK (C1R.Com) “My roommate, he still might be asleep.” “What’s the matter? Think I’ll like him better?” “It wouldn’t make any difference…He’s straight.” Not only is the roommate straight, but a gay-hater. But he hits his head and forgets who he is—and therefore is easily convinced that he’s gay. Boy, does he believe that! Great fun, horny sex. An almost sci-fi element is added by the fact that the guys all seem to have the same body (same gym, I guess). Below: the gay-hater hits those stairs, and then finds another use for them.

TOP BRASS MILITARY ISSUE #3 (C1R.Com)”Keith, come into Dirk’s bedroom,” cries the offscreen Dirty Old Director, Dirk Yates, to the first of a baker’s dozen of presumably straight presumed servicemen who chat with Yates like he was a comical older relative who’s always good for pocket money, and engage in eighty three minutes of a trio and two duos, then two hours of eight solos, a duo, and a trio. That is to say, the whole thing takes two hundred and three minutes. It couldn’t be more pleasant and folksy if it tried. In the middle of sexual combinations which you’d think would be pretty absorbing, the lads laugh with Yates and each other. They nod when he issues suggestions or commands for their activities. Crewcuts, dogtags, and tattoos abound. And so now and then do flashbulbs. Bed and wall colors change now and then. Below: left, crewcuts, dogtags, grins and flashbulbs; right, straight porn reflects above the head of a straight soldier doing gay stuff. (Pics courtesy C1R.com) Buy HERE, “Available upon release.”

The very beautiful and very impressive TOMMY LIMA IN BRAZIL (AlexanderPictures.com) comprises three movies, left to right below (pics courtesy alexanderpictures.com) : (1) ON THE BEACH, (2) IN THE JUNGLE, and (3) SOCCER PLAY. Mister Lima is a tall, long-faced youth with narrow, expressive eyes, dark brows on a creamy forehead, and a muscular body shockingly like Roman sculpture. Amidst stunning metropolitan Brazilian scenery and in attractive apartments, he and other lovelies of several luscious colors do five scenes per picture. There’s a swimming-pool fiveway in ON THE BEACH (which really takes place more in a swank hotel), a lot of voyeuring through greenery in IN THE JUNGLE (which really takes place in a great park in the middle of Rio de Janeiro), and quite a lot of splendid stadium shots at the beginning of SOCCER PLAY (which then retires happily to locker room, shower, and sauna). (1) Is available now. (2) is coming in October, and (3) in January 2009. Buy the first one HERE.

CUM TWICE (StreetBoys.Eu) Well, I wish to hell I had been young in the Czech Republic. Just think of the slumber parties I could have had with these twelve smooth cuties. Oh, well, I can but watch and dream through six glistening, crystal-clear scenes. The two dimpled darlings below may be twins (pic courtesy gaymagix.com). But all the other lovelies look alike, slender, flawless-skinned colts with different hairdos so that you can tell them apart—as long as you can see their hair (:. One pair chat idly while one chews on the other’s butt, like they’re halfway through an exhausting weekend of sex. Director Boris Suckov has no taste in names, but has a beautiful sense of composition, color, and pace. This is a way-good candy-twink movie, with lots of cum-dripping face-shots. One kid solos in a kitchen so angelically that you’d positively eat off of that chair. Buy tons of such movies HERE. P.S.: keep watching after it says “THE END.” And even after ,I>that, keep watching for the cumshots.

SINFUL SESSIONS (SinergyFilms.Com) Director Andre Adair has an arty sense of color and camera movement which somewhat enlivens five solos by very varied men, and even ties them together with bright orange walls and abstract paintings. Depending on how you feel about interviews before solos, those given here will fascinate or annoy you. Beautiful-eyed, bald white athlete Damian (“anything with more than one person”), black, round-faced Byron (“I like to show off my body”), matter-of-fact, long-jawed Zack (“If they’re gonna be submissive, be submissive; if they’re gonna be dominant, be dominant”), shy mustached Latino Jesus (“sorry for my English”), blond Mike with his baby-chick haircut (“straight guy, originally from Poland”), all keep talking on the soundtrack as they masturbate silently.
