Pictures from the Black Dance is the first film from the gay S/M classic Dungeons of Europe Trilogy that was shot in 1988, fourteen years after director Roger Earl and producer Terry LeGrand made the BDSM classic Born to Raise Hell. The viewer first glimpses an outdoor scene of a theatre, with Andrew Lloyd Webber on the marquee. The scene is London, as the video was filmed there in a particularly notorious leather dungeon; the image of the theatre could perhaps hint at BDSM play as erotic theatre, a type of play with scenes, as defined above. The viewer first sees Tony Starr, the pivotal figure in the film, at first kind of like the distant impresario orchestrating the dance of leather scenes, but also a voyeur who becomes a participant. The tall, angular man watches the pictures and becomes part of them, perhaps the audience's fantasy, who they want to be and what they want to do in the scenes. His spiky gauntlets add a hint of 1980s bling, that era of big hair, shoulder pads, and conspicuous yuppie consumption. Original release date: December 17th, 2018.

After some ball, Eric heads to the locker room to relieve some tension. Shaking his meat, he then goes into the shower for some lather. In the end, he sweats in the sauna and works his throbbing cock until it unloads, everywhere. Original release date: November 10th, 2016. From the film: Truck Stop.

Year Released: 1983. Director: Vex Werner. Studio: Rollo. Cast: Tim Kramer, Michael Christopher, Shawn McWilliams, Mike Carr, Mike DeMarco, Chris Burns, Dean Newcomb, Brian Diaz, Paul Tischler (aka Paul Howell), Beau Matthews. Tony's Initiation is a vintage gay porn video originally released by Rollo Studios. A very private, all-male sex club in a circus tent is the kinky setting for this sizzling gay sex video! Circus costumes, tuxedo bow ties (like the Chippendale guys), trapeze orgy, big cocks, loads of cum. Young, handsome Tony (Shawn McWilliams) is hot to join and his bizarre initiation rites into this inner circle of big horny dudes generates some really hot gay sex! In one of the hottest sequences, muscular Michael Christopher gets his tight butthole blasted by Tim Kramer's bullmeat! Mike Carr is rubbing his short shorts in the woods when Shawn McWilliams comes across him and offers to join him. When they are naked and the bugs start biting, McWilliams asks if there is someplace else to go and then end up in a bedroom. After a lengthy flip-flop fucking, Mike Carr invites McWilliams to his sex club where he has to be undergo a sexual initation. When hitching a ride, McWilliams is cuffed, blindfolded and taken to the club by Tim Kramer and Mike DeMarco. In a white circus tent, Tim Kramer massages McWilliams back to life. In front of a masked champagne-drinking audience and dressed as a Ring Master, McWilliams is stripped of his clothes and sucked by Chris Burns, Dean Newcomb and Brian Diaz. Mike DeMarco steps up to fuck him. Then the three initiators, Burns, Newcomb and Diaz finally strip off their posing straps, suck each other and jerk off. On a star painted on the floor, McWilliams rides Michael Christopher for the benefit of the audience. Diaz, Newcomb and Burns blows guys in the audience. Then, on trapezes, Paul Tischler blows Beau Matthews and two other guys who don't seem to be identified. Reviews mention this scene as not being integral to the movie but it was not in the video that was available. It takes place in the same white tent as the Kramer/McWilliams massage. Supposedly this is the first time Michael Christopher ever got fucked on film. One Bijou reviewer wrote: "A funky movie with original twists, and the trapeze orgy is worth the price alone. The soundtrack obviously took some thought and is a cross between 'Ringling Brothers' and Lost in Space. Original release date: October 24th, 2019.

Year Released: 1990. Director: Roger Earl. Studio: Marathon. Cast: Harry Ros, Gerard Jonkers, Frans Roest, Theun DeBoer, Lance Evans, James Bruce, Paul V Rooy. This vintage gay leather sex video from Roger Earl is the first in the Bound for Europe series (gay leather, SM, bondage, fetish). Harry Ros, a topman, enters the bar and begins to terrorize a wimpy-looking guy, Paul V. Rooy. Ros slaps him in the face and then chains him up with a long set of links, adding extra clamps for his tits. Ros and another top, James Bruce, who is wearing some kind of military uniform, do an elaborate bondage scene on Lance Evans before, as the February 1991 issue of Manshots says, they "fist his dick to a gushing finish." In the dungeon, Gerard Jonkers and Bruce work over a pair of slaves, Frans Roest and Theun DeBoer. Roest shoots a big gusher after a session of bondage and tit play. While Roest watches from his suspension bondage, Ros tops Gerard. He spanks and slaps with his bare hand, but he also uses a cat o nine tails and a leather strap. Jonkers shoots some of that gorgeous white stuff out of his pierced piss slit. One reviewer wrote: Spanking, face slapping, and flogging leading up to some intense milking and hot cumshots, all taking place in a leather bar and in what looks like a basement dungeon. What's distinctive about this leather video is the combination of .naked BDSM aggression with sensual foreplay. And the guys don't hide behind elaborate equipment. The main top in the piece, Harry Ros, can make a mean rope harness, but it's a means to slow foreplay leading to an ecstatic orgasm. The first scene starts with Harry Ros, notable for his angular features and long fingers, assertively stomping into a leather bar. A bald guy, Paul V. Rooy, with a pierced nose, submits immediately to the slapping hands of Ros (Ros does love to work with his hands; sometimes that's all one needs as a BDSM top). He chains him up, attaching the nose piercing to his tits and to the Prince Albert on his cock. V. Rooy must really be into humiliation, as Ros ends up making him drink beer out of a dog bowl. The camera work throughout is natural, unobtrusive. The viewer feels that the scene is really happening in the actual leather bar setting; it doesn't feel staged at all. A hot moustached daddy type in full leather (Lance Evans) then enters the bar, and interacts with a dreamy looking guy (intense eyes) dressed in what looks like some type of uniform (James Bruce). They make out, and the viewer seems shots of them doing it with their gear off, but not totally naked, an effective touch, but one could do without the ominous music at this point. Ros joins in, and he and the uniform stud end up disrobing Evans; the big bulge in Evans' leather is quite noticeable. There's some slackening in the tension here as Ros ties the knots, but the ecstatic expression on Evans' face (kind of reminds me, perversely, of one of those Jesus as Ecce Homo pictures) as the two tops work him over keeps the dynamic going. One can tell all three guys are attracted to each other; kissing and licking and sucking occur just as much as BDSM play. Up this point, the interaction has been nonverbal, but as Evans spectacularly cums from his veiny cock, one can hear Ros saying something like "beautiful." And it is! In the next scene, Gerard Jonkers, a tattooed muscle stud, and Bruce work over two slaves, Frans Roest and Theun de Boer. The groveling Theun de Boer appears to be a major pain pig; though he doesn't get flogged to the level of some of the other bottoms in other leather films, his writhing moans while chained to what looks like a tree trunk as the tops flog him, and his overall submissive attitude, make the viewer want to see him in some really heavy action. The scene really flows well, climaxing in studmuffin Roest's cumshot while he is restrained to another pole and spanked and caned de Boer roughly flung down to the ground and used as a muddy bootwipe. Hot! In the final scene, three guys stomp down into what looks like a basement dungeon. Ros puts Roest into some form of suspension bondage, spread-eagled against a wall. He then proceeds to work over Jonkers. Jonkers gets naked, and Ros strips down to a jock. Ros uses a variety of implements and his bare hand on Jonkers, including a really hot cat o' nine tails. From the looks of it, it really stings! At one point it looks like Jonkers is going to cum on Ros' harness boot, but that doesn't happen. Throughout, Ros seems to get into wiping Jonkers' extensive precum. Jonkers' thick cock emits drops of rich, milky cum. The front cover of the issue number 20 of Mach, a Drummer publication, features a scene from this film. The issue also contains stills of other scenes from the movie. "Filmed, utilizing real masters and genuine submissives, in the famed Amsterdam bar, the Argos, this S and M videotape titled, simply enough, Argos: The Session is first rate in both the vitality of the performers and the capturing of their action on camera." Manshots, February 1991. Original release date: October 29th, 2019.
