Ben Leon directs "Savage" with the usual flair and dark eagerness that is the hallmark of all Raging Stallion movies. This is a sex-only flick, with the emphasis on tough guys having tough sex.
The movie starts in a dark room with only one inhabitant. The camera slowly travels up his booted leg and past his hairy pecs to show that it's Steve Cruz, clad here and there in leather, sporting a mustache that should make the 1970s proud. With his enormous capacity for intensity, he plays with his cock, using a black rope to tease it. His own spit is lube, and he's having a great time all by himself. Just as he's about to get off on his own smells and feels, smooth inked Fred Faurtin arrives. His fat veiny cock is just the thing Steve has been looking for to take his work to the next level, and he sucks it with abandon. When he takes a break, which is rare, it's only to swap spit with Fred (literally, they spit on each other's faces and love it). Steve stands so Fred can suck him, wrapping his black cord around Fred as he swings his hips at his blower. Steve, hands tied back, squirms to enjoy a wet rimming from Fred, who spices it up with some fingering too. Steve's ass is a comfortable place for Fred's cock, so Fred isn't afraid to work his gorgeous abs and send big thrusts into the littler Steve. The hearty fuck in the hairy ass is wonderfully shot from many angles as Fred goes harder and faster. Fred continues to sock Steve diligently until the bottom cums, followed immediately by a most impressive shot from Fred that coats Steve.
Lukas Hass looks ideal in a harness with a strap across the top of his pecs, leaving his torso an uninterrupted series of hot muscles. Smooth and lean, he's beating off. Elsewhere in the same room, Victor Steele is doing the same. The dark-featured sexpot is very focused on his own cock, but not so much that he can't pay Lukas a visit. No pleasantries needed, Victor starts sucking Lukas' long cock with Lukas staring down at him. Victor does a fine job, even offering his ass to Lukas for fingering before he sits on Lukas' chest to get a return blowjob. Lucky for Victor, Lukas' dick is so long that while Victor is being sucked, he can also gyrate his ass around that dick for some extra prep. Lukas is definitely headed there, stalling the fuck only with some rimming. Once Lukas is in, the two have an excellent connection, with Victor's hard cock a target for where Lukas places his energetic thrusts. Victor keeps Lukas going by tugging on Lukas' harness. That signal gets Lukas to go deeper, plunging mercilessly. Victor rides Lukas next with a fun zest. It's not their most penetrating position, but the guys keep it interesting. Victor cums still bouncing and then Lukas aims his shot at Victor's just-released hole.
The third scene features Roman Ragazzi and Brodie Sinclair, two of the hottest men in the Raging Stallion stable. Super handsome Brodie is buff and inked while Roman, even buffer, is a lip-smacking mass of hair and muscles. A little wrestling soon finds Roman's mouth on Brodie's cock, hardening it as he sucks. Once the dick is full, Roman gives it his max wattage, blowing it in close-up and making it hot! A little more wrestling has Brodie again in a position of power, this one topping Roman. Massive Roman is never the guy you expect to be on the bottom, but Brodie has a ton of confidence and a lot of talent, so he fucks Roman with no problem. The rounded cheeks blunt the force and Brodie can be almost casual with it since his bottom is so willing. Roman, in a harness, looks so fetching getting it on his back, legs in the air and Brodie invading between them. The fuck, with Brodie's balls smacking Roman's hairy hole hard, keeps Roman hard until he's ready to release a hard-won shot. Brodie pulls out to leave his white mark on Roman.
Victor returns to the action, alone in a room and admiring himself in the mirror. As well he should! His tight oiled body is a dream. The camera worships every inch of him to his booted feet to his strong eyes. But, he can't remain solo forever, not with Steve Cruz (now in full beard) on the prowl. Steve literally slithers into the room and over to Victor's hardon to suck wetly in front of the mirror. Steve is still in spitting mode, unleashing a torrent of it onto Victor's cock as he deep-throats. Then Steve, in jeans and boots so tight it's amazing he can breathe, gets his solid boner gulped by Victor, though Steve remains in charge, grinding his hips into Victor's big lips or keeping Victor's head buried in his crotch with his arms. After a bit of time to kiss and rub their cocks together, Victor fucks Steve missionary. The bottom begs for more with his whole face, and Victor keeps up a steady thrusting. Victor may be quiet, but he's a potent top and when he grabs onto Steve's cock, you just know he wants Steve feeling every tingle. He is also consistently buried as deeply as possible in Steve's hairy asshole. After a grueling face-down fuck, Victor sprays all over Steve's face and then lets Steve pop.
Always ready for the most hardcore of sexual acts, Matthieu Paris starts the finale by blowing a large dildo while wildly inked Ricky Sinz, full of his unique attitude, smokes and watches. His free hand works his cock as Matthieu stares at it, the inspiration for his dildo work. The wet dildo is soon placed totally into his hole, a feat he accomplishes in one thrust. Ricky finally joins Matthieu, ass still full of rubber, and lets him suck his dick. Ricky works his mouth into Matthieu's codpiece and sucks Matthieu's own incredibly sizey cock, all the while slipping fingers inside the well-traveled ass. The two get maximum usage out of Matthieu's cock (it gets its whole length sucked and its foreskin pulled all over) and ass, home to any dildo the two can find. However, Ricky, nipple piercing flashing, can't avoid fucking Matthieu forever, the ultimate prize when playing with the French stud. Ricky nails him with extreme focus, just pile-driving his cock in over and over. The fucking is some of the best in the movie, with Ricky absolutely relentless and Mattheiu encouraging him by pounding Ricky's chest with his fists and spitting on him. They just revel in the deep connection their throbbing lust produces. The guys fuck for ages, and just when the scene could end, in comes chap-clad Antonio Biaggi, giving Matthieu a cock to suck while he gets pounded. Antonio shows off a giant cock, but the focus is still on Matthieu and Ricky, who commands Matthieu to scream with pleasure. Matthieu cums and licks it up, triggering a shot from Ricky, who also swallows up his mess. That leaves Matthieu alone with the extraneous Antonio, who nevertheless enjoys a great blowjob from Matthieu, who has also tied his boot to Antonio's balls. Matthieu still isn't done and sits on Antonio to ride. His butt knows no bounds and watching it scoop in all of Antonio with no effort is absolutely inspiring. Antonio is a zesty top, mixing in fucking with rimming, but after the Ricky-Matthieu chemistry, it all just seems a bit too much for one scene.

BONUS SCENE ["Playback"]: It's once again time for the switchover, but when Barrett clocks in, Roman doesn't leave. Instead, both guys reveal their cocks and decide they can play while working. Barrett's infamous cock is Roman's focus immediately, and he doesn't even bother to undress before putting it in his mouth. The handsome Roman, who has such elegant good looks, is hell-bent on mastering Barrett. Okay, so Barrett is never going to be deep-throated, but that doesn't mean guys like Roman should stop trying. Roman is masterful, stretching his mouth to the limit in his death-defying quest to conquer Barrett. Finally naked to his hairy muscular perfect body, Roman grips tightly on Barrett's cock and keeps going, long after most mortals would have stopped to rest a tiring mouth. Not Roman. His hand-and-mouth combo has Barrett breathing hard as he sits in the chair taking it. Barrett finally halts the blowjob, but only to bend Roman over and fuck him. With Barrett's low-hanging balls jiggling, Barrett tucks the entire piece into Roman's ass. Hey, if the mouth can't take it all, that doesn't mean the ass can't succeed. Barrett pushes all the way in, and his unnaturally large dick is catnip to Roman, who seems totally at ease with it inside him. It's tough for Barrett to work with speed, but he goes the fastest he can while maintaining the depth his dick requires. The fuck actually works better with Roman on his back because the path seems smoother for Barrett, who scoops his way in and out. His insertion shots are marvels, because he's able to get so much in without even a wince from Roman. It's amazing that Roman can handle Barrett as long as he does, content to have his ass crowded with such a giant piece for ages and ages as Barrett forges ahead. Roman produces a cum-shot and then Barrett blasts an arching one onto Roman's chest. - BB
BONUS SCENE ["Grunts: The New Recruits"]: From beginning to end, this is a duo that will be remembered for a long time, a matching of two ultra-macho, hot studs who give their performances a lot of extra heat. Jake Deckard's growls as Roman Ragazzi sucks his cock, Roman's hot ass being spread wide by Jake's big paws, and the double cum-shot ending of the oral sequence are all superb. The Jeep the two ride in is a nice prop for the fucking action, too, which has Jake plowing Roman from behind, and then missionary. Jake's load drizzles over his fist in the end, making the glint on his wedding ring a little less shiny. - MC
BONUS DISC: "The Black Box" is a medley of Raging Stallion scenes. The scenes included were culled from the following: "SexPack Six: Heavy Equipment," "SeXus," "Manifesto," "Downright Dangerous" and "Monster Bang 2: Stick It In!"
["The Black Box: SexPack Six: Heavy Equipment"]: "Fucked Silly" is filmed with a traditional camera and all the normal angles we expect, but also with a static camera on a tripod, the image of which is shown on a monitor just next to the action. With the visuals flipping around among the camera, the stationary camera and the monitor, what should be a standard leather, light-bondage scene turns into a frenetic explosion. Of course, the other reason for that is the performing style of Michael Brandon, a porn actor who has found a method of remaining the center of a scene, without malice, whether receiving or giving the action. He is decked out in a goatee and a leather codpiece, with his partner, sexy 70s-style Michael Soldier in face hair and his own share of leather. The action takes place in a chain-link suspension that looks like the place a schoolyard bully would take his nerdy charge for the afternoon. This vignette is far rougher than the preceding one, with Brandon starting by standing in the suspension to be blown. It's no matter that Soldier can't take all of the double-digit dick, it's just important how hard he tries, and how amazingly he adds to a scene about piggish pleasure more than anything else. Soldier can't get enough of the enormous cock and Brandon brays in honest excitement. Soldier doesn't waste much time blowing Brandon, soon enough sliding a condom on the size-XXL dick and allowing himself to be fucked by it. Soldier's ass has not one problem with this cock, which is given to him in a superbly fast, powerful fuck. All those good words we all use to describe the ultimate porn fuck apply here, with devil-inspired Brandon seeming to forget that perhaps not every ass is made to take a dick his size. Brandon takes a break from the whomping fuck to rim Soldier with the same ravaging of his fucking and then he goes back to fucking. Soldier now does most of the manic purring, and it seems that Brandon doesn't know the meaning of the word "fatigue." With all the cameras working overtime to provide a jaunty limitless style, Soldier than cums and then walks over to the monitor to explode there so it looks like Soldier is lapping up the jism. It's a great touch. - BB
["The Black Box: SeXus"]: Tom Vacarro and Sky Dawson are featured next and they are already in the throes of a greedy 69 as the camera moves in close. Tom deep-throating Sky's rock-hard meat with ease and Sky struggling (as Luke did earlier) to get as much of Mr. Vacarro in his mouth as is humanly possible. He succeeds quite nicely, thank you very much, and Tom shows his gratitude for a job well done by spreading Sky's smooth buttcheeks apart for a full-tongue rimming. Sky, of course, coos in ecstasy with each lash of the tongue. Tom then fucks Sky every which way but loose. Hrmmp! - BH
["The Black Box: Manifesto"]: "Pumping Muscle." The first performer shown here is smooth black Jay Black, a gorgeous man with a nipple piercing and a great sexual air about him. He's working his arms as Huessein (does the man ever tire?) spots François Sagat. I probably lost a pound of drool watching François work out under the tutelage of Huessein. (They performed together in "Arabesque" and it was my personal favorite scene in that film, so a rematch between these titans, with the added presence of the awesome Jay Black, seems too good to be true.) Huessein shows off a bit with the weights, with Jay lustily watching the two studs try to outdo each other. When it's clear the next workout will be sexual, Jay finally joins. François is the first one completely naked, his ever-astounding boner tosses back and forth between Huessein and Jay, both lavishing it with the oral attentions such a piece deserves. All sense of competition is gone now as the two work together and share it beautifully. Of course, there's enough for two more performers anyway. Jay does a very zesty rimming-blowjob on Huessein while the latter sucks François and then François chugs down on Huessein doing Jay. Jay then ends up easily the luckiest position of the film so far, on the bench with Huessein and François dropping their cocks at his mouth. Jay keeps himself busy alternating, his own cock strong and big in his hand until Huessein gets to it. Aggressive ass-eating starts when Huessein moves to Jay's hairless ass and François sits on Jays face. The sight of François sitting there, muscles tensed and his cock swaying and twitching, is awesome! It's François' turn to be in the middle, with Jay at his ass and Huessein at his mouth, and Jay starts poking around his ass with the head of his cock. Jay is the winner of the prize, sliding his cock into François silently but deeply. - BB
["The Black Box: Downright Dangerous"]: At the door, the poet leaves his sex slave to his own devices, and in the blink of an eye, he's sucking another cock. Not just any cock, but the long one attached to he-man Matt Sizemore. Rick Hammersmith sucks, gulps and swallows whole the curvy dick with steadfast determination. Matt then dives into Rick's buttcrack with his tongue, licking and poking the creamy center as he chews away with abandon. Both are covered with sweat. Matt puts his money where his mouth was and fucks Rick doggy, crashing into the muscular ass harshly. They segue into a sit-fuck, Rick with his back to Matt, and he bounces up and down as Matt jabs upward. Rick cums with Matt's cock still inside him, and then Matt squirts out what appears to be at least a pint of cum, gobs of it dripping to the floor. - BH
["The Black Box: Monster Bang 2: Stick It In!"]: Michael Brandon's next scene is with sex slave Bret Wolfe, who is wearing only a jockstrap and a leather dog collar with a chain leash. Bret's thick uncut meat gets hard while he slobbers on Michael's dick, then Michael rims him, using the waist of Bret's jock to hold him in place while he gives the slave a good tongue-fucking. One of Michael's strengths as a performer is that he is a top who really gets into the rimming part of the action -- maybe because he also bottoms, and he knows how good a tongue feels prior to the main event. Michael then stabs his dick into Bret's ass, holding part of (yes, it's that big) in his fist while the rest of it disappears in Bret's hole. Then Michael fucks Bret no-hands style, and savagely, while Bret whimpers. The camera catches a great angle in this scene, from above, while Michael orders Bret to "Open up!" his meat already looking like it's splitting the boy's ass in two. Then Michael delivers one of two amazing cum-shots in the video (the other one is in the next scene). He pulls out, and this is not an exaggeration, erupts, not once, but twice. Bret tries to catch the volleys of Michael's jism on his tongue, his mouth gaping open like a baby bird's. Bret follows with his own load, which is also very impressive. - MC
