IVD-Distributed Daring Studio Nabs Major Award
October 21, 2008
Hightstown, NJ - As the exclusive North American distributor for Daring DVDs, IVD couldn’t be more proud of the studio’s milestone achievement this past weekend: Daring was named Top Label at VENUS 2008!
During the second day of the international erotic trade festival, publishing house Mediatainment Publishing Verlags GmbH put on a jaw-dropping gala event and awards ceremony at the Hotel Estrel in Berlin. Dozens of stars, studios, and titles were up for numerous awards, but only Daring Media Group snagged the coveted Top Label designation at the Erotic eLine awards show. And this is only the studio’s second year…roughly a year after Daring released its first movie. What an accomplishment!
International Video Distributors streets all Daring Media Group titles in North America (the production company is based in Barcelona, Spain, and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Beate Uhse Group). The studio is known for high-quality productions with large casts, intricate storylines, superior camera and editing work, and hardcore sex.
The company has brought in the best and most well-known experts in the adult sector: Italian film director Antonio Adamo, the French photographer Christoph Mourthe and the British director Kendo are just some of the renowned professionals on the Daring team.
Says Jason Park, IVD Exclusives Sales Representative: “We’re seeing a correlation between Daring’s incredible production values and excellent sales. Their Roma series, Wham Bam Ibiza and Sticky Knickers were all great sellers for IVD. Just this month we’re streeting Twisted Minds and Magic Graffiti, among others coming soon. The demand for high-quality DVDs is there, and we just love the fact that Daring dares to make such quality adult films. Plus, their boxcovers are absolutely fantastic – among the best in the industry.”
Adds Alexandra H., PR Manager for IVD: “You can tell just by watching a Daring DVD that their shooting and editing styles are quite different from many American-made movies. The directors chosen by the studio each have an artistic eye. Daring titles always have a certain level of sophistication – plus crazy sex, of course – that often make the adult fan feel as if they’re watching an art noir film.”

Wham Bam Ibiza
August 1, 2008
At very first glance, Wham Bam Ibiza, directed by Macondo, looks like a superficial fuck feast with an annoying Oliver Sanchez headlining it, but surprisingly the sex is excellent. Oliver Sanchez is almost as kooky as Nacho Vidal when he started. If you can get past, the in-your-face style of Oliver Sanchez, you will be treated to a hardcore delight with thorough anal scenes.
Full Review Of Wham Bam Ibiza:
The movie is presented in widescreen and encoded in MPEG-2 with a range of 5-7 Mbps while the audio is encoded in Dolby Digital 2.0 at 192 Kbps. In terms of visual quality, the colors are vibrant and the fleshtones are for the most part accurate. There are several moments when you can see screen artifacts such as in the Julie Silver/Anneka Duran scene. However, the audio is flawless and the sex sounds aren’t muffled at any point in the movie.
Extras include an 8 minute BTS, three interviews with Vanessa May, Claudia Rossi, Oliver Sanchez, Bonus Lesbo Scene, photo gallery, and trailers. The BTS is boring since there’s nothing interesting to report. The interviews were a mixed bag since although I do like both Vanessa May and Claudia Rossi, they look extremely different, in a bad way, without make-up. They are asked the typical questions and if you want better in-depth interviews, you are better off with the Private Life Series from Private. The Oliver Sanchez interview is so-so and it doesn’t have the same visual clarity as the two prior interviews. Now, with regards to the bonus scene, it’s basically an extended veggie session from the last scene starring Vanessa May and Claudia Rossi. Finally, the photo gallery could utilize the widescreen real estate to better use instead of using a sizable amount to advertise Daring’s website.
First up is Lady Mai, this Pinay Little Brown Fucking Machine, who gets a very thorough anal fucking throughout. But, before then, Oliver and his friend help this pinay out of her whorist outfit complete with fishnet stockings. Lady Mai is built for fucking, but it’s very disappointing that she hasn’t used her income to fix her misaligned teeth. She fulfills their XXX-rated fantasies with her mouth sucking on cock while her ass takes a hard pounding. This is by far the most thorough Asian anal scene I have ever scene without a double penetration. Lady Mai is definitely built for speed and she doesn’t show any slowdown with the hard anal fucking! By scene’s end, she takes a cumshot inside her ass, which drips out of her tight butthole! This is a smoking scene that ends with Lady Mai pushing Oliver Sanchez into the water.
 |
|
Next up is European veteran Claudia Rossi. She’s wearing an aquamarine swimsuit, but at the moment she has a buttplug in her before Oliver Sanchez gives her the real fuck stick. He begins very methodically fucking her ass, but then picks up speed. Like the good whore she is, she does ATM before taking it up her poopchute. The best moment is when she displays her deepthroating skills before taking it in the pussy, resulting in a cumshot all over her pubes! The scene’s not over yet since she takes his cock and cleans it dry! I must say that was a very good ending.
My favorite Euro-star is currently Vanessa May and her performance is what I would expect from this vixen. She’s wearing a two piece neon yellow suit with pink fishnet stockings. She crouches to suck on the two cocks in front of her. The action is hot, but I question the angles and the heavy editing in this scene. It looked to hurried and it could have been more. Needless to say, Vanessa May takes it all ways including a short DP. Finally, she lets them fuck her ass until they cum on her butt cheeks one-by-one.
The fourth scene is powered by two blonde chicks, Julie Silver and Anneka Duran, While Julie is an established star, I have yet to hear of Anneka Duran until this scene. This ia a little nasty then what I am accustomed to because there is a monster dildo that has to ruin the scene. Anyway, if you can look past that, you’ll be treated to very good deepthroating and very nasty anal since both ladies take it up the ass! Anneka enjoys the thorough double penetration while Julie pleasures herself with the monster dildo. In the end, Anneka takes a facial while Julie lets him cum inside her ass before perform post-coital sucking! It’s safe to say that Julie is as nasty as ever!
Lady Mai comes back for another scene, but this time she shares screen time with Anneka Duran. The pinay and blonde share some lady loving before the two have some cocks to suck and fuck on. There’s a whole lot of anal and deepthroat for the tiny Pinay. Clearly, Lady Mai is taking all the attention although Anneka holds her on. After the fucking, the guys unload their jizz all over their buttcheeks! Anneka gives a rather thorough post-coital sucking as well. If you are into cute and sexy Asians, you won’t be disappointed with Lady Mai’s scene.
The last scene stars the powerhouse combination of Claudia Rossi and Vanessa May. The brunettes are dressed in neon green and neon pink lingerie thereby carrying this neon theme throughout the enitre movie. As soon as Oliver Sanchez enters the scene, the two ladies know how to their man and it doesn’t take too long before Claudia uses her pro-sucking on him. Vanessa is not too far behind as she gets to suck on it too. There’s great chemistry between the ladies and it’s apparent that this is not the first time they’ve worked together. After the foreplay, he fucks both of them hard and raw both in the ass and pussy. Soon, the ladies extract his cum by giving explosive fellatio before he cums on their sexy faces! In the end, Claudia has a nice cum streak on her face!
In summary, don’t let Oliver Sanchez’s antics ruin the total experience as you will be treated to the hardest anal I’ve seen for a long time. It’s amazing that the petite Asian, Lady Mai, wasn’t split into two by the two guys! She definitely was a starring attraction in the movie where she ended up with two smokin’ scenes. Vanessa May, Claudia Rossi, and others bring up the rear, figuratively and literally speaking! This is well worth watching!
RATING: Highly Recommended
Roma: Episode 1
August 1, 2008
Acclaimed, former Private director Antonio Adamo finally gets to toot his own horn through Beate Uhse’s foray into the glamporn market, Daring Media Group. His first ambitious project for Daring is a Roman-inspired trilogy called Roma as you would have guessed. Adamo has not changed his winning formula, which garnered him praise in past years and that’s a good thing. Roma volume 1 is a good start to the trilogy although some may criticize that there are too many subplots introduced into the first part. The story is basically about Roman ambition and power caught up in a web of sex and treachery as well as deceit.
Full Review Of Roma Episode 1:
The movie is presented in widescreen and is encoded in MPEG-2 with a range of 2-3 Mbps while the audio is encoded in Dolby Digital 2.0 at 192 Kbps. Despite the low bitrate, the fleshtones were accurate as well as the colors. There are times when I thought the image quality could have been better, especially with the use of better lighting. Now, with regards to the audio, it is dubbed but what do you expect from European porn.
The extras are included on the second disc, which include a 29 minute BTS, a photo gallery, and trailers. The BTS is not very exciting, but it’s apparent that the studio set must have been very hot because the cast and crew are sweating like pigs. However, it was interesting to hear and watch Antonio Adamo discussing his projects for Daring Media Group. The photogallery is so-so because the pictures don’t make use of the widescreen format. Also, it’s important to note that there is a six-page booklet within the very well-executed DVD packaging with hardcore shots that mirror what Private Magazine used to be several years back.
Antonio Adamo decides to divide the first sex scene in half with Daria having one guy to herself while the Renata Black takes on two men. If you have seen Adamo’s earlier works through the Private-Penthouse movies, then this will harken you back to those days. Daria works her magic and ends up getting royally fucked in the pussy. The camera moves seemlessly moves between the two theaters of action. The young and able-bodied Renata Black makes most of her threesome, which results in the DP highlight. Either the studio was hot or the sex was intense for her or both because she’s all covered with sweat before she takes a cumshot to her body and another on her pretty brunette face of hers. Meanwhile, Daria takes a cum-dousing on her natural rack! It’s a great scene to start the movie.

Jennifer Love is a bleach blonde with a killer body as in curves in all the right places. Her beau pleasures her with the nimbleness of his tongue before she returns the favor using her luscious lips to wrap around his pulsating cock. Meanwhile, we get to see a picture of her firm ass while she has her lips on his cock. Soon, he’s having every way with her in multiple positions before pounding her tight ass! The scene ends with a cumshot to her face and stomach.
Lydia St. Martin, a passable MILF, is an odd choice for an Adamo film, but I guess he needs a sexy mama to play the wife of Cesar. It’s a good scene considering that Lydia is somewhat aged than the rest of the ladies in this movie. She does a good job giving fellatio before he takes her to town fucking her in different positions before fucking her ass in the doggie position. It’s nice to know that MILFs like to be as nasty as their younger counterparts. Finally, he jerks off onto her breasts. She cleans him up giving post-coital head! What a nasty mama!
What would a Roman themed movie be without a Roman-sized orgy! The Roman officials spend some time in the city’s famed brothel to taste and sample the hottest female commodities in the Western World. There’s a whole lot of action going on with some of the hottest women like Vanessa May and company displaying their sexual talents in every way! In fact, Vanessa May takes it anally as well as letting them do a DP on her. This orgy is a feast for the eyes, which ultimately ends with multiple loads of jizz on the women’s gorgeous faces!
Next up is Adamo’s favorite talent he likes to use, Julia Taylor. Ms. Taylor has graced a number of front covers for Adamo’s memorable Private-Penthouse movies. It’s nice to see that Julia Taylor has aged somewhat well and she delivers a no-nonsense performance including some great head as well as anal! In the end, like the good professional she is, she takes his cumshot in her open mouth and sucks away while the camera lingers on this hot action!
The penultimate scene has Claudia giving an emphatic blowjob-only scene. She’s slobbering on his cock, but I have to say her BJ technique was better in Wham Bam Ibiza. In the end, she takes the cumshot on her pretty face and sucks away!
Claudia Rossi isn’t done yet since she stars in the last scene of the first volume of this Adamo trilogy. It doesn’t take too long before she’s sucking away at his cock. He returns the favor with some nice cunnilingus before the actual intercourse starts. The sex has a nice pace to it unlike the gonzo full-throttle fuck videos. She also takes some anal before receiving a nice facial on her Slovak face of hers!
In summary, Roma 1 definitely has the Adamo style that I’ve come to known and like. There is a great deal of hardcore in the movie from double penetration, anal, deep throat, and facials, which should keep raincoaters somewhat engaged. The mini-stories or sub-plots may be too difficult to follow through since this is the first installment, but I am sure they will make sense in future volumes. With that said, this is worth to watch from beginning to end for raincoaters as well as viewers who like watching features.
RATING: Recommended
Fetish De Luxe
August 1, 2008
Fetish De Luxe is not for everyone as it contains a scene that is not for the squeamish. Even with a stellar cast like Sarah Twain and Rita Faltoyano, the video falls flat in terms of visual quality as well as content.
Full Review Of Fetish De Luxe:
The video is presented in widescreen and is encoded by MPEG-2 with a bitrate of 3-4 Mbps while the audio is encoded in Dolby Digital 2.0 at 192 Kbps. Visually speaking, the fleshtones are out of whack and most of the scenes aren’t well lit at all, probably because of the artistic direction. Meanwhile, on the audio side, the sex sounds are captured well without any obvious problems.
The extras include a decent photo gallery, trailers, and a ~29 minute BTS. The BTS was quite interesting in part because we get to see how artistic Christophe Mourthe is and we get some brief interviews with the stars of the scenes like Rita Faltoyano. It’s not a bad BTS considering it’s for a fetish themed video.
The first scene has some very hardcore SM theses with Mistress Dominique La Mer calling the shots with the brunette hottie Sarah Twain. There’s a whole lot of teasing and domineering behavior done by Mistress La Mer. Rita Faltoyano joins the scene while the shackled Sarah Twain watches the Mistress fuck Rita with a strap-on. The dominatrix then has her way with Sara Twain and fucks her from behind while Rita licks Sarah’s tits. Things get stranger when the Mistress attaches a strap-on dildo on Sarah’s mouth. At one point, Mistress fucks Sarah while Sarah fucks Rita with the newly attached strap-on. The sapphic threesome continues in different configurations until Mistress Dominique La Mer has been satisfied.
The mistress has a toy for the two sex starved minions, Rita and Sarah. Sarah looks extremely hot with the naval fetish suit while Rita just looks passable. It doesn’t take too long before the guy gets used to his surroundings and starts sucking on Sarah’s tits. Soon, the ladies take turn sucking cock before they let him full access with all their holes. There’s a great deal of anal for both of the women. The scene ends with him pulling out of Rita’s ass to cum on her face! Sarah Twain provides some assistance by polishing his know. It’s a better scene than the first.
 |
|
The next scene has Rita Faltoyano looking not herself with all the makeup and she actually looks better than usual. She enters the scene as one of the mistress’s star pupils and she soon dominates the two male sex slaves. After the domineering, the guy’s show her who’s boss with lots of hardcore fucking including a very high-paced double penetration. Soon, the scene ends with them cumming on her big, natural breasts! At the end of the scene, the guys shackle her to the pole and she’s pissed off! It’s hilarious watching Rita getting pissed off and yelling.
Bobbi Eden walks in with the mistress to the unsuspecting male sex slave. After some SM maneuvering, Bobbi has her mouth lip locked on his fuck stick. This is yet another scene that has loads of anal, but she doesn’t interest me in anyway although I do think she has an impressive skill set. In the end, she takes an adequate facial on her passable face.
The penultimate scene has Dominique La Mer providing assistance with the sapphic session between Sarah Twain and Bobbi Eden. The scene begins with very seductive eye contact between the two ladies before it erupts to a full-scale lesbian fuckfest. There’s heavy use of sexy toys and strap-ons. Even the Mistress takes her turn at ass-fucking Sarah Twain with a glass dildo until she cums with delight!
Christophe Mourthe saves the kinkiest scene for last! It stars a guy who’s dressed up in female red fetish gear complete with a wig and makeup while he’s being bossed around by Mistress and Bobbi Eden. Soon, Bobbi has complete control of him and sucks and fucks him while the domineering Mistress provides support. It gets ultra-kinky when Mistress Dominique, dressed up in her blue and white fetish gear takes him from behind and fucks his ass with a strap-on. I can safely say that this scene is not for the squeamish nor is it for the average porn viewer. In the end he jerks off onto Dominique’s boot.
In summary, Fetish De Luxe is not made for the average porn viewer at all. The themes suggest that this movie is made for a rather specific and targeted niche, especially taking into consideration the last scene. Despite that, there is some good anal by Sarah Twain and cast, but that may persuade you to buy the movie. This is a skip it!
RATING: Skip It
Sticky Knickers
August 1, 2008
Sticky Knickers, directed by Macondo, follows the traditional elements of European glamour porn complete with hot anal sex as you would expect. There are several twists to the formula with the inclusion of the Thai beauty Priva who headlines this cast of primarily Eastern European beauties. Other scenes worth mentioning are Molly and Chantal’s scene as well as Mahe’s, which were surprisingly good.
Full Review Of Sticky Knickers:
The video is presented in widescreen and is encoded in MPEG-2 at 4 Mbps while the audio is encoded in Dolby Digital 2.0 at 192 Kbps. Visually, the fleshtones in some scenes are not as accurate even showing a light red hue. Furthermore, the color are a little off and saturated for intended stylistic purposes. Aurally speaking, the microphone captures the sex sounds with clarity.
The extras include a decent photo gallery, trailers, a boring 6 minutes BTS, and two interviews with Priva and upcoming starlet, Holly (but menu mislabels her as Chantal). During the 4 minute interview with Holly, we get to know that this Czech brunette from a small town has just been in the business for five months. Her English is better than most Czech ladies when she describes her journey into the adult industry. Next up is a 7 minute interview with Priva. I found that this interview was more candid than her interview in the Private Life of Priva compilation. She discusses her unique relationship with her husband/performer and how they have a very liberal relationship in more ways than one!
First up is Melissa Black donning blonde tresses a la Charlie’s Angels. She’s got a thin body to go a long with her small breasts. She begins teasing the camera as she poses in seductive positions in her aquamarine lingerie. Once a guy appears, it seems that there’s no romance involved since he just shoves his cock into her mouth and thrusts away! It shouldn’t be surprise that she takes it up her ass and even performs ATM. Her ass must be sore with the extended assfucking session. Like a good Eurowhore that she is, takes a nice facial before she wets her knickers with jizz. It’s a decent scene to start things off.
Mahe, is a very tanned brunette with an exotic look to her perhaps having some gypsy blood running in her veins. The busty brunette reminds me of Vanda or Private fame. Anyway, she’s wearing some pink lingerie. Technically speaking, these are one of the scenes where the fleshtones are accurate. The camera captures her playing with herself until she has a cocks to suck on. This threesome begins right as she’s the center of it. Strangely enough it’s like a rotating threesome as another guy intermittently joins the dogpile making it a foursome, technically speaking . One thing that’s nice is that she gets fucked hard while her panties are still on her! Although this is a vaginal-only scene, it’s a good one. In the end, all the three guys take turns fuckig her missionary style until they cum on her stomach one-by-one.
 |
|
Next up is Megane, who also dons blonde tresses like Melissa Black. Unlike Melissa, Megane has all the right curves and then some, particularly her ass, which makes up for her average face. She’s wearing a hot matching yellow top and bottomwear. It begins with a brief tease session on the yellow couch before she takes a cock up her mouth. It doesn’t take too long before he’s all into her ass in the doggie position while her panties are down. The camera takes a nice of view of her ass in the cowgirl and doggie positions. Finally, he cums inside her pussy. She lets it seep out and rubs it on her knickers making them all sticky!
Priva, the headliner for this movie, gives us a seductive tease while she displays her rockin’ tight body to the camera! She seductively gyrates for the camera showing off all her assets. By this time, she’s all hot and horny and decides to play with herself. Soon, the cavalry show up and she has two cocks willing and able to pleasure all her holes. Soon, a heated threesome switches into fifth gear as she takes it up the ass while sucking on cock. One guy cannot take it any longer and cums on her ass. A little later, the other guys pulls out of pussy and cums on her tummy. It’s a great anal scene without double penetration, but doesn’t have the nastiness as Lady Mai in Wham Bam Ibiza.
Last up is Molly and Chantal Ferrara in a heated threesome! The two ladies are wearing lime-colored lingerie as the camera takes nice view of their bodies. I’ve got to give the nod to the newbie Molly since she’s firm and tight all around complete with perky tits. Although her partner, Chantal, is attractive, she saggy tits. The two take turns pleasuring each other with their tongues until a cock shows up to be sucked and fucked. Holly lets her experienced partner gets first dibs at sucking and fucking. Anyway, Molly surprised me in a good way since I didn’t expect her to perform PTM and ATM maneuvers not to mention taking it up in her tight ass of hers. She definitely made the scene much more interesting as she gets taken up her sexy ass in several position including doggie. Finally, Chantal takes the majority of the cum on the face while Molly looks on. This scene was definitely a surprise because of Molly’s hot performance.
In summary, Sticky Knickers is an adequate release, but gets much better with the performances by Priva and newbie Molly. I was really surprised at how Molly got all nasty since she has that innocent face to go with her hard-on inducing body. These two performances as well as Mahe’s vaginal-only scene pushes this up from a rental to a recommended.

Daring’s Director Kendo Talks About the Art of Bondage Thoughts
May 15, 2008
Hightstown, NJ – Breaking into the American adult scene, British director Kendo is making his mark on the US porn industry! Distributed by IVD Exclusives, Bondage Thoughts is the latest Daring Media Group release to hit US store shelves. But, don’t be scared away by the B-word in the title: Bondage Thoughts isn’t your typical, violent bondage film.
Says the famed director: “Bondage Thoughts is an expression of creativity, primarily concerned with human culture and the darker side hidden within all of us.” The release is a completely non-violent fetish film, almost as much about the erotic costumes, sensuous lighting and unusual camera angles than it is about bondage. The sex in Bondage Thoughts is intense, purposeful, artsy and stimulating. It’s not aggressive or forceful in any way; instead, the new DVD is a stunningly beautiful film.
The director and actors use the bondage theme as a vehicle for hot erotic play, making Bondage Thoughts more like an erotic art-noir film. As any viewer can tell, Kendo uses a particular artistic flair in all of his movies. “All my work is crafted as it were to be hung on my own wall,“ he says. “I see the films I shoot as my way of getting the creative side of me out. I love art and I love sex. In this film, the two are combined, and I hope to continue this philosophy with all films I will shoot in the future.”
While his films are nothing but modest, Kendo is humble about his visionary style: “There is always a place for something new. I have only just begun painting the way I want to paint. I hope the audience for which I paint will understand my vision. When they do, they will want to watch Bondage Thoughts again and again!”
Bondage Thoughts has the most jaw-dropping displays of erotic bondage fetishisms ever! There’s spanking mixed in with orgasm-inducing sex and hardcore kink inside modern dungeons – more than two hours of sex scenes with the most incredible soundtrack! The costumes are mysterious without being sinister, and they combine with latex, rubber and leather intertwined with ropework, gas masks and glass dildos!
