R18 releases slowing down??

[David J]

Is it just my imagination, or is the rate of new R18 releases slowing down? On the BBFC site recently there seems to be a lot of gay stuff, and some obscure German stuff, but not many new releases from major American companies like Anabolic, Evil Angel, and Hustler. Some of the popular series like Rocco's True Anal Stories are being released in the States faster than the R18s here can catch up with. Does this mean the UK market is already saturated with the existing titles, or what?

The notable exception to this rule seems to be Red Light District, who seem to have a good UK distribution arrangement which gets new relases out pretty quickly. It may be significant that the distributor is not Harmony.

PS: this isn't entirely O/T, as Brit girls like Angel Long feature in a lot of recent US vids.

You're right about Evil/Elegant Angel, but there I think there's still a fair bit of British stuff coming through. You're also right about Red Light District who have a load of stuff appearing - check out Queensway's web site for upcoming release dates. Of the latest stuff, I can thoroughly recommend RLD'S Gang Bang 1, which features almost an hour of the delectable Jessie J getting roundly pounded by a football team's worth of studs.

Thanks for the tip (as the girl said to Mandingo)!
