1. Aftershock, Mustang, dir. Chi Chi LaRue (2002)
Its a no non-sense leather pig fest. Great all sex movie. It stars Colton Ford and Peter Raeg together, they have great chemistry, which is what it’s all about.
2. “Powertool,” Catalina, dir. John Travis (1986)
Jeff Stryker – now there’s a cock for ya and he isn’t kind with it, either. He’s got a pairing with Tony Bravo, who’s sexy despite his bad panda tattoo.
3. Desert Train, Titan Men, dir. Bruce Cam and Robert Kirsch (1996)
Gorgeous men in beautiful settings shot impeccibly. The early Titan films weren’t merely sexual, they were sensual. I was just as turned on by the erotic play as the sex. You could tell there was real chemistry between the men involved. Everyone looked like they were having a great time. The movie was a breath of fresh air when it came out. Classic.
4. Like A Horse, Huge, dir. Matt Sterling (1984)
The movie a collection of random stories, and I think there’s a live tiger on the set! Its not the greatest movie but it was my very first gay porn. The alley scene left an indelible impression on me. Its probably the birth place of my sexuality and the birthplace of Steve Cruz the on screen character. I was 14 when I saw it and I wanted to have sex just like that!
5. “Muscle Beach,” “Killer and Butch,” “Hot Cop,” COLT, dir. Jim Colt (late 70s)
Early COLT director Jim French is a god to me … he shot video as an extension of his photography and it shows. “Hot Cop” is shot on red-orange seemless. Its a wet dream! I can watch it over and over. The chemistry between Wolfmier and Betts in “Muscle Beach” is adorable. The spirit of his early clips is more about playful sexuality than the nuts -and-bolts of fucking– what we shoot today. We were a lot freer back then. This is art.
