Joanna & Cindy: Straight Outta Hell

As Halloween approaches every year, the entire city of Los Angeles seems to buzz with enthusiasm and anticipation, both for the long-standing traditional debauchery the festival now encourages, but also the creative element most commonly associated with the often elaborate costumes revelers dress themselves in as a means of escaping the confines of their everyday reality. Few creative icons in Hollywood have shown as deep an appreciation and love for Halloween than the one and only princess of punk-porn herself, Ms. Joanna Angel. Along with her Burning Angel cast and crew, a family really, Joanna has crafted many memorable adult epics specifically for the Halloween season and this year, well, this year they’ve put their nasty little heads together and come up with something truly devilish.

Cindy Queen of Hell, starring Leigh Raven in the title role and a cast of Burning Angel regulars, tells the story of Cindy and her mother (Joanna Angel), the elder having some 21 years earlier conceived her daughter with the devil himself (Xander Corvus). Now that Cindy has reached adulthood, she’s faced with a choice: remain on Earth or join her pops to rule the underworld.

As has proven to be the case in the past, Burning Angel throws everything it can into each of its major epics, Cindy’s tale being no exception. From comically tacky effects (a BA specialty) to extensive demon makeup that turns Sarah Jessie, Anna Bell Peaks, Lily Lane, Nikki Hearts, and Ophelia Rain into ravenous netherworld nymphs hell bent on turning Cindy into the daughter her daddy always hoped for. For us, the home viewers, that means just as much, if not more utter sexual insanity from Joanna and Co. Ms. Angel DPs women with her demon beau, takes two satanic cocks at a time,

One part even the most ardent Burning Angel fans may have missed is footage torn from the film’s live concert scene in which Satan himself fronts a dark-wave band and performs the original song Wake Up in Hell, capturing the attention of a certain pink-and-black-haired woman in the front row.

Unveiled to Burning Angel’s online subscribers over the last two weeks and now online in its complete five-part form, Cindy Queen of Hell has also hit the stores in DVD form, proving evil knows no format restriction.

Joanna Angel: Virtually Yours

One of Mr. Pink’s favorite porno powerhouses and fan-favorite tattooed anal queen, Joanna Angel has always seemed like someone you’d not only want to bump uglies with after a night on the sauce, but someone you’d invite over for a Sunday afternoon vape-n-Voltron session, too. To put it simply, Joanna Angel seems like the coolest fucking woman in porn and now you get to virtually hang with her in a much more convincing way than in one of her Burning Angel alt.porn classics.

Recruited by HoloGirlsVR to direct and star in episodes of the company’s acclaimed virtual reality dates, Angel’s latest advancement in techno-aided seduction brings the benefits of binarual sound, a 200° viewing stage, High Definition resolutions, and fluid, lifelike 60 fps encoding. What does that mean for the average VR viewer? That Joanna will soon be whispering into your ear, asking you to dump a load on her favorite back or ass tattoo, and throwing out some of her signature ironic dirty talk. And all of these sounds are mixed and presented as if they were happening in the very real space surrounding your very real body.

HoloFilm CEO Brian Shuster announced the deal with great enthusiasm, calling the deal “the first of a kind,” and praising the Burning Angel head honcho for pushing porn into more creative arenas. Ms. Angel herself has said her HoloVR work, which includes self-starring scenes as well as episodes with Abella Danger, Katrina Jade, and Manuel Ferrara, is “a whole different medium” and a compelling platform for Burning Angel. Proving ink is never far from her mind, Angel added “The fans will love seeing our all tattoos in 3D!” Though something tells me that said tattoos wouldn’t get a mention if they weren’t covering the epidermis of a true porno trailblazer, an incredibly hot performer, and one of porn’s most restless innovators.

Angel’s first HoloGirlsVR scene is now live with others to follow.

Joanna Angel’s AVN Nom Haul

Joanna Angel’s 13th year as the driving force behind Burning Angel has seen the company nestled comfortably among the most interesting and inventive porn outfits working today, even after outside challenger Wood Rocket appeared with total lunacy as their M.O. Now, with nominations announced for the 2016 AVN Awards and her an allegedly abusive former flame now exposed to his previously adoring public (more on that soon), Ms. Angel’s 2015 seems to be ending quite beautifully indeed. And it’s not just one or two crucial nominations that should have all at Burning Angel popping bottles and laughing in the face of their most paltry competitors, alt.porn johnny-come-latelys, and would-be indie-porn revolutionaries, but an incredible 28 nominations for her and her Burning Angel cohorts. What did BA do this year that deserves such recognition? Well, quite a lot, actually.

Angel, who’s also due to co-host the 2016 AVN Awards with Anikka Albrite come January, saw herself snag individual nominations for Best Director – Parody (for Making the Band), Best Web Director, Mainstream Star of the Year (which, if won by our favorite punk rock pornstar, would signify quite the sea change in public perception of “alternative” style and identity in porn), Best Porn Star Website, and, In a featured but clothed role, Best Non-Sex Performance (Dirty Deeds for Wicked Pictures). Along with fellow scribes D Nothing, Kara Pond, and Randy Stoker, Angel was recognized for her inspired writing of Dude, Am I a Slut? and Killer Kleavage from Outer Space. Throw in a nod for her part in Making the Band’s incredible rock ‘n’ roll orgy (Best Group Sex Scene) and Joanna’s doing pretty god damn well for herself this season.

Not to be overshadowed by its creator and guiding light, Burning Angel racked up a slew of nominations: two for Best Amateur/Pro-Am Movie (It’s My First Time and It’s My First Time 2), Best Anal Series and Movie (for Rock and Roll in My Butthole 5 and the series it belongs to), Best Anthology Movie (Fuckabilly 3: Pin-Up Pussy), two for Best Comedy (Killer Kleavage again, and Slumber Party Sluts, Best Continuing Series for POV Punx, Best Interracial Movie (Big Black Dicks and Tattooed Chicks 2), and, among a handful of others, Best Marketing Campaign – Individual Project for the headline-grabbing Ronda ArouseMe: Grounded and Pounded. Special mention should also go to Twin Peeks (aka Tommy Pietch), Burning Angel’s resident makeup genius, nominated twice this year for Best Makeup for his remarkable work on Killer Kleavage and Comic Book Freaks & Cosplay Geeks, both of which saw him turn everyday pornstars into the bizarre (and bizarrely arousing) creatures. And comic convention attendees.

Ever the gracious recipient of accolades, Angel had this to say in response to her and her company’s nominations: “I am incredibly happy that our nominations spanned over so many different categories. In addition to our parodies and our features, our Pro-Am releases, our POV movies and one of my favorite all- sex lines that we have, Rock and Roll in my Butthole was given attention,” Angel has said. “BurningAngel has been a labor of love for me for the past 13 years and I am so thankful for the success we have. I look forward to a kick ass show in January!”

Fan voting has opened at AVN HQ and if you’ve been as impressed as I with the output of Joanna Angel and her merry band of fucking freaks during 2015, why not show your support by casting your votes accordingly.

Ronda Rousey’s Slippery Sex Tips

She may be one of the most Googled female athletes in recent memory, and world champion in her chosen sport, a Hollywood player with mainstream movie cameos, and now the author of a sex and dating advice column for men’s mag Maxim, but Ronda Rousey probably shouldn’t be dispensing sex tips or criticizing others practices until she’s learned a few things about the variability of human sexual response.

Telling Maxim reader “Jack, 36, Los Angeles” that using lubricant is a sign of sexual inadequacy, impatience, and disregard for a woman’s arousal is just plain irresponsible. Italicizing her response because she’s so damn sure it’s correct, Rousey says “You should never need lube in your life. If you need lube, then you’re being lazy.” So every post-menopausal woman who suffers from vaginal dryness has a lazy lover? Those couples dealing with sexual anxiety or a disconnected physical response or under the haze of a nice strain of cannabis sativa might also find the lower regions a little less moist than your average folks.

Though the idea that any guy reaching for a tube to lube his partner isn’t taking his time has an iota of validity, there’s always those guys and couples who prefer longer bouts of intercourse, something lube no doubt helps extend without rawness and irritation ruining an epic coital congress. And then, Ms. Rousey, there’s the marvelous world of anal intercourse, something that would hardly be comfortable enough to pursue without the aid of additional lubrication.

Dudes, Maxim readers, sexually active humans… Don’t listen to Ronda. Load up on lube and see how smooth your sex life can be. And, if you must listen to Ronda, at least listen to Kleio Valentien as Ronda ArouseMe in Burning Angel’s hit porn parody. Trust me, it lasts longer than most Rousey bouts and is very wet indeed.
