With three muscular and furry chests on the front cover, how could I resist? You guessed it, this new release is filmed in a desert climate wrought with secluded hills and abandoned buildings – perfect for these randy “Lebanese” men to hook up and get nasty.
In the first scene, Francois Sagat is cruised by the butch Said in an abandoned building. Sagat still has that darn hairstyle that looks like it’s painted on, but he has grown his goatee a little longer and it seems to have an almost blonde tinge to it when seen through the sunlight. Lifting his shirt and stroking his belly and chest, Sagat is able to encourage Said to do the same, revealing his nice furry torso. Having laid claim to one another, they retreat to the inside of the building for a romp.
Later on we’re introduced to two porn stars that were new to me: Marco, and Martin Mazza. Marco is probably the most believable Lebanese guy of the lot, and he goes pretty rough on the intermittently cute-looking Martin. I say intermittent because with a dick in his mouth, Martin’s good looks are overshadowed by his blazing red face. Good grief!
On the other hand, Collin O’Neal, after whom the movie is named, is most obviously playing the tourist. In the last two scenes he gets up to no good with a number of the cast. Maybe I’m just jealous but it seemed a little self-indulgent to me. He goes one-on-one with Said while Francois watches from a safe distance, and then he has a three-way with Francois and the (in my opinion) not so hot Jacko.
Not a lot of story here so it’s hard to say much more. The main reason to buy this DVD would be if you’re into masculine, good looking middle-eastern guys…which I certainly am!

Well, Jake Dakota keeps pumping out the movies, so I just have to keep pumping out the reviews. It’s all his fault, honest!
In this movie, a mysterious man wearing a scary clown mask kidnaps “evil men” and lets their victims teach them a lesson. I’d say that it’s a mixture between “Saw” and “Hostel”, but adapted for porno. Most of the evil men are handsome devils – Jake Dakota being one of them – and the guys they have wronged seem less appealing in my eyes, but would probably be quite hot for some.
The first kidnappee wakes up with an electric collar around his neck. An employee that he has stepped on in the past now holds the button to activate the collar, and after a few minor shocks the boss has no choice but to comply. There are very strong themes of dominance and humiliation in this film, as most of the sex scenes aim to seem non-consensual.
Eventually Dakota is kidnapped in his sleep and wakes up bound to a sling. As he gets rammed by his victim, Jake repeatedly growls, “Get your dick out of my ass!” Eventually he loses track and starts grunting “Yeah!” instead. The chains come off and he gets to take some control back, but he’s enjoying himself too much to try to escape.

Hey, you don’t have to stick to the new releases, especially when there are tons of other movies that you haven’t seen yet! “The Coach” is an oldie from 2001 and although the music sounds like it’s from the 80’s, it has many other redeeming features - namely Chris Steele, Joshua Scott, and Dante.
In the first scene, Coach Scott orders his trainee Dante to run several laps around the baseball diamond in the rain. The two of them don’t look like much until they lose their clothes in the locker room after the training session is over. Scott sits on the locker room bench wearing nothing but a jock strap, polishing a baseball bat with a cloth. If that’s not obviously phallic then I don’t know what is! He makes some inappropriate comments as Dante comes out of the shower, and Dante dons a look of mock surprise. Scott offers his coachly advice, suggesting that Dante has an attitude problem that needs fixing. With the hilarious line of “Relaxation is not inappropriate, it’s therapeutic,” Dante drops his towel and off they go.
I had to laugh though…how many people do you know shower with a cock ring on? Okay, so a little contrived but what the heck, the action is very hot between these two muscled studs. Coach has a goatee and a nice helping of chest hair, while Dante is smooth save for his five-o-clock shadow. I can’t imagine too many people would thumb their nose at this scene. Even if they do, the blonde muscle boy and burly daddy in the next scene should make up for it.
There are many more scenes with an even bigger variety of guys, so if you’re turned on by the idea of older on younger, teacher on pupil, then this one is a must-see.

“Last Call” by Daddy Oohhh! Productions, Courtesy of Adult Depot
The bar – it’s a setting we’re all familiar with, and this porno shows what can (and sometimes does) happen in the bars after close when nobody’s watching.
A lot of the guys in this film are a little more on the seedy side, or at least a lot more realistic than the hand-picked porn stars that are so typical. In the first clip, two guys bump into each other in the washroom. Cruising leads to kissing, kissing leads to groping, and before long everything is hanging out. They don’t seem at all concerned that someone might walk in on them. Jude Marshall is a younger smooth and slender guy with a goatee, and Nathan York is about the same build but a little older, slightly furrier, with salt and pepper hair and goatee.
The bar is empty later on after last call, and bartender Nick Stone is wiping down the counter when the woofy Tyler Kane stops by to say “hi”. Stone offers him a beer – a HUGE no-no serving alcohol after last call – but Kane decides to reach across the counter and help himself to the bartender instead. Both guys are athletic and hairy, probably in their late 30’s or early 40’s. They do the usual course of sucking and fucking behind the bar counter while the cold-one grows wet with condensation, sadly untouched.
If you’ve ever fantasized about having sex in a bar, as I’m sure many of us have at some point, then this porno is a great way to live vicariously through others. I’m obligated to encourage you NOT to do this in real life because you can get your favourite bar in a lot of trouble if you’re caught. The bar staff may turn a blind eye…or they may dump a bucket of ice water into your bathroom stall!
