Every now and then one single word seems to become a porno trend of its own. Recently, eagle eyed porn fans may have noticed an upswing in the usage of the word “raw” either in reference to sex without a condom or used more generally to denote, well, that hasn’t quite been defined. Greg Lansky’s latest iterations of his acclaimed Tushy and Blacked sites and series have tagged Raw to those titles and seem to largely differ from their predecessors photographically. The narratives are a little dirtier at Tushy Raw and Blacked Raw, with more cheating scenarios and fuck-buddy style hotel rendezvous, but they’re hardly the nastiest, most animalistic porn scenes around. Isn’t that what’s so often meant by “raw” sex?
Another fairly new site employing the R-word in an even more provocative title comes from the twisted creatives at Spizoo. Raw Attack is a handheld and POV hardcore fuck fest with plenty of kinky before-and-after play that sees the likes of Nia Nacci, Paige Owens and Gia Milana earning plentiful facials then being promptly filled once again with dick. Already boasting 76 scenes, Raw Attack pulls in top ranked and newbie pornstars for hardcore hookups often taking place directly after a scene shot for a Spizoo sister-site. Arriving around the same time as Blacked Raw and a good six months before Tushy Raw, it seems likely Raw Attack’s name was inspired by one even earlier proponent of handheld hotel hardcore and casual backstage sex, a porn legend with more than 30 Raw titles to his name.
Manuel Ferrara started his Raw series back in 2010 with an aim to shoot simple, casual, charming sex with top pornstars of the day. The resulting series has seen Manuel romance and ram more than 130 women and each episode has delivered a vivid yet voryeuristic sex-tape of incomparable quality. If you were half the director and half the stud Manuel is, you could conceivably hope to one day produce your own homemade sex tape of a similar quality. Good luck dipping into Manny’s extensive talent pool, though!
Manuel Ferrara’s Raw #36 has just been released via Jules Jordan Video has already made its way to Ferrara’s official site. Conveniently, along with the 28 editions online at ManuelFerrara.com existing editions of the Raw series can be found at Evil Angel (#’s 1-29) and Videobox (#’s 2-29 with a few omissions), and of course at Manuel’s own official site, where 28 Raw volumes (#’s 3 to 36, again with some omissions) are sitting waiting to be marveled at. Once you’ve seen some of your favorite stars dressed down and treated to a world class fucking in a charming naturalistic style, it becomes quite clear: of all contemporary producers of “raw” porn, Manuel Ferrara is undoubtedly the one who has truly embraced a rawness not normally found in porn, proving yet again that he’s more than an acclaimed stunt cock, he’s one of porn’s most quietly influential people.
