Director-slash-glamazon Chi Chi LaRue has consistently made some great flicks lately, but "Peep Show" -- a modern-era interpretation of the dark and seedy booths of days gone by, with video cameras and TV monitors, not the quarter-dropping booths of yore -- clearly stands out as one of Rascal's strongest releases to date. It's as straightforward a fuck flick as you can get (no dialogue or storyline), just unabashed sucking, rimming and fucking (The art direction and videography kept reminding me of "American Gigolo" for some reason, particularly the first scene.)

The first scene begins with tanned bodybuilder, Julian Pierce, and all-American pretty boy, Matt Summers, posing à la Richard Gere in a white room with a white sofa and round mirrored cocktail table. Matt, who looks as if he could have just left an Abercrombie & Fitch catalog photo shoot, pounces on Julian's very wide cock (with a ridged cockhead). He sucks and sucks lovingly for a bit before Julian returns the favor in a greedy 69. It is during this position that Matt, and the rest of us, can behold Julian's amazing ass. Matt licks and rims the pink center (as Julian helpfully spreads his cheeks apart for better access). Julian's ass is muscular and smooth and he seems to enjoy Matt's rimming a great deal. Next, bent over the mirrored cocktail table, Julian fucks Matt (who has a nice hairy crack) before moving to a reverse lap-fuck (Matt is facing the camera). Matt bounces up and down in glee. Julian then stands over Matt and dumps his load on Matt's chin as Matt jerks himself off below.

One of the hottest newcomers I've seen in a long time, Travis Reed, joins Bailey Parks and Andy Hunter for a spectacular three-way, and debut scene, as far as I know, for Travis and Bailey. Travis is a very smooth, buff Marine type with a crew-cut, tight six-pack and perfect pecs (think Ryan Idol, but smaller build). Bailey is a cute, toned, fair-skinned fellow who looks like he just got off the bus from Iowa, and Andy is the slim, handsome brunet who has been in quite a few good videos lately (Falcon's "Branded" and Studio 2000's "Blades," to name a few). Andy is the most experienced player here, but Travis and Bailey clearly hold their own throughout. They begin, Travis and Bailey, by double-teaming Andy, lavishing his long cock with spit-dripping blowjobs as well as some greedy rimjobs. Accordingly, a most grateful Andy, blows both guys, and rims Travis. Then, surprisingly, Andy doggy-fucks the gorgeous Travis. It's a good hard fuck, and Travis seems to egg Andy on to fuck him even harder. Then Andy enthusiastically fucks Bailey missionary. The scene ends with all three men jerking off (Andy splashes his load all over Travis's perky tanned pecs). The peep-show theme is realized throughout this scene by way of handheld cameras used here and there by the performers as well as TV monitors shown in the background replaying snippets of their action.

No handheld cameras in the next scene, but a closed-circuit TV monitor is viewed by macho newcomer Jon Ashe. Jon, in a separate room, watches a hot and heavy session between Aaron Tanner and Sebastian Cole. Aaron, looking more muscular than usual, trades blows with Sebastian, a tightly built Aussie. Sebastian dives in and gives Aaron a very aggressive rimjob (Aaron showing off his piercings underneath his ballsac) before fucking him doggy- and missionary-style. (Jon is fierce! He looks like one of those gorgeous New York City firefighters we've been seeing so much of lately. He's buff, hung and has a tattoo on his back that starts at his neckline and ends at his buttcheeks. The footage of Jon jerking off is interspersed with the main action in the other room.) Jon is intrigued and inspired by Aaron and Sebastian, and eventually spills his seed from his veiny dick.

A second three-way with Lance Gear, Peter Raeg and Evan Taylor ends the flick. Evan and Peter are in a big room with a big screen showing clips from "In Gear" (shameless self-promotion!) as Evan chows down on Peter's gloriously upturned cock (has there ever been a sexier cock?) before rimming his lightly-furred ass (has there ever been a sexier asscrack?). Next, with a quickness, Lance joins in alternates blowing Evan and Peter. Peter rims Lance. Lance rims Peter. More sucking ensues. Evan fucks Lance (who is positioned over a stool) as he sucks Peter. Evan fucks Peter. Peter fucks Lance. Evan and Peter dump their loads on a kneeling Lance who then jerks himself to climax.

I was completely impressed with all of the newcomers (Travis and Jon being the standouts) and Lance Gear, as he has done in previous efforts, dominates with his take-charge attitude, but Peter Raeg and Evan Taylor, of course, give him more than a run for his money. The guys in this video, ranging in type from all-American to very macho and rough, are all excellent, not one stinker in the bunch. The thoroughly modern peep-show theme was more or less used in an unobtrusive manner and director LaRue uses established performers, newcomers and first-timers effectively here in the sexy free-for-all that is "Peep Show." The Pierce-Summers pairing and the Gear-dominated three-way are definitely highlights, but the Parks-Reed-Hunter three-way is not to be missed.

The DVD version includes easy-to-navigate chaptering (and special cum-shots-only chapters), bonus DVD-ROM content (online photo galleries and trailers via Web browser and QuickTime player) and previews of various Channel 1 Releasing titles.

A DVD Review by Butch Harri

Guys peep and fuck in this Chi Chi LaRue video that has voyeurism and exhibitionism going hand-in-hand. Cute stud pup Matt Summers watches himself in a mirror as he swallows down Julian Pierce's thick dick in the first scene. There's some hot face fucking and deep throating before the couple 69s and Summers tongue-fucks Pierce's beefy butt. Summers gets to look in the mirror again as he gets his fuzzy butt plowed hard by Pierce. Muscleman Pierce fucks like a pile driver, sending bottom boy Summers into a sense shattering orgasm. Pierce spooges all over Summers' face as the scene ends. I'm sorry to say that the slide projector that is focused on the performers along with the dim lighting detracts rather than adds to the scene, making it hard to see all the action.

The next scene has three boys and a video camera making some hot homemade porn. The very appealing Andy Hunter gets his supersize schlong sucked on by muscle stud Travis Reed while camera man Bailey Parks captures it on video. Parks gets his big dick in the pic, feeding it to Hunter while Reed holds the camera. Pretty soon all three guys are sucking and rimming, with Hunter's pretty hole getting the majority of the action. Reed's spit-soaked pucker is soon filled up with Hunter's long dong, while dick-starved bottom pig Reed gulps down on Parks' pole. Hunter then pokes Parks' hairless butt before the three guys jack off their loads. Reed really lets it fly but is upstaged when Hunter literally soaks down the other two guys. The oral and rimming are first-rate, with the fucking being a bit awkward, but all three studs are good-looking and very sexy. The camcorder and video monitor are used well in the scene, allowing the guys to see how hot they look going at it.

Next up is smooth Sebastian Cole getting his ass munched on by Aaron Tanner. While these two rim away, sexy tattooed Jon Ashe watches them on a video screen while jacking off. Cole and Tanner keep up the tongue-fucking as Ashe starts to finger his own hole. Tanner fingers himself as well while Cole sucks his cock, but what makes it extra sexy is Tanner slurping on his butt-filling fingers when he's done. Cole decides to fill that hole with his cock instead, plowing away as Ashe strokes his bloated dick. Cole fucks a load right out of Tanner, which he licks up before Cole cums on him as well. Ashe finishes himself off and starts to eat his own load as the scene ends.

The last scene starts out with the luscious Evan Taylor swallowing Peter Raeg's thick, curved bone right down to his hairy bush. Mmmmm! Taylor gets face-fucked before he buries his tongue up Raeg's fuzzy ass crack. While all this silent action is going on, scenes from In Gear play on a screen in the dimly lit background. And who should walk out of the shadows and sit on Raeg's face but Lance Gear himself. The three studs suck and rim in every possible combination, with Gear stealing the show by forcing both of the other cocks in his mouth at the same time. Gear grunts like a pig as his beefy butt gets assaulted by Taylor's tool and his throat gets rammed by Raeg. Gear then squats down for a ride on Raeg's pole before the two tops unload on his smiling face at the end. Again, the mood lighting had me squinting at times, but the sex and lust keep the scene working.

While I commend Ms. LaRue for pushing the envelope and trying new things, this time the theme of peeping, etc. just doesn't carry the video. The diverse cast of performers is very appealing, and they all do a pretty good job, but it's distracting when they have slides projected on their bodies or you can't make out what's going on. The second scene has a lot of energy and probably uses the idea of watching and being watched the best. With the amount of hot butt-munching going on in this video, I'm surprised they didn't call it Rim Show instead.
