In my years of porn viewing, I have not seen many Christoph Clark videos. I believe this is my third or fourth Christoph video I’ve seen and I’ll admit while the man has his own style which I appreciate, his older videos (1998 to 2001) happen to be his absolute greatest. I am not interested in most of his works, the recent ones. In fact, I like his older works better than most of the shit that’s out now and the earlier installations of his Euro Angels Hardball series is more entertaining than most of the videos Jay Sin releases. Christoph’s videos have a very rough and super-nasty edge in them, similar to the works of Mike Adriano and Jake Malone. While Christoph is far from a great male performer, he is a very funny man who cracks me up with his accent and gross anal antics. The subtitles to some of his videos are hilarious as well, such as Anal Ringmaster, Ass Gangsters, Anal Maniac, The Hole Story, Budalicious, etc. Unfortunately though, in my vision, his ability to make great videos such as this one I’m about to review has declined seriously. Even after seeing Euro Angels 13 and Euro Hardball 3: Anal Therapy, I must say Euro Angels Hardball 6: Anal Maniac happens to be his best work that I’ve seen from him (I honestly plan on watching Euro Hardball 7 and reviewing it before my retirement).

Christoph shoots anal sex like no other and the man’s obsession with the female asshole may have been copied and imitated by the likes of not only Jay Sin, but B. Pumper and Mike Adriano -- If not, it would be hard to tell for some. He took anal sex to a bizarre level, which was probably too much for audiences to endure way back in the late 1990s, when he first started directing at Evil Angel (and like B. Pumper, he has an ass-smelling fetish, too. He sniffed Daniella Rush's ass in Euro Angels 13). Thankfully, he doesn’t have the women wear so much makeup like some pornographers, though for some of the ladies who do wear it, some of them look as if they crawled out of The Rocky Horror Picture or a creepy John Waters movie. This plus the settings for some of his sex scenes resemble some demented horror flick and amid watching Euro Hardball 3, I felt as if I was watching a pornographic version of Hostel, with the incredible music score adding more fuel to the fire. However, all of the women are gorgeous. Bombass European women whom are all athletic (whether they have big butts or not) and who all get fucked in the ass. The only problem I have with some of Christoph Clark’s videos is that not all of the female talent gets penetrated. Sexual intercourse only happens in half of his videos. As I’ve mentioned before, Christoph Clark isn’t the best male performer in the world (though I’ve seen worse), so there are times where all he does is puts his fingers and other objects (even lit cigars) up the women’s assholes and that’s it. And if he does get to fuck, the sex isn’t remarkable and flat-out pale (the same can be said about B. Pumper’s performance in Mr. Butt Fetish). This is also the reason why I, unfortunately, could not give Buttman’s Anal Show the 5-star rating it deserved because of him. Still, he has made some classics for the first four years of his career as a director for Evil Angel.

A very young Michael Chapman stars in this one, though he’s credited as Mike Lovechild. Remember the concept behind The Dark Side of Rocco, where two men (one Ebony, the other, Ivory) sharing the same commonalities in regards to how they treat their women? Euro Angels Hardball 6 is almost similar to that with Michael Chapman and Christoph Clark both being anal-obsessed, nutty assholes. Unfortunately, he doesn’t fuck any of the ladies in here, but he does happen to eat out Meridan’s ass and fingers it like crazy, fingers other ladies’ asses and play as a black sexual slave master, whose crazy antics even attracted Christoph Clark. The first scene stars a hot blonde named Meridan, who Michael Chapman puts on a leash after talking to himself, having her crawl on all fours to a large group of men awaiting to fuck the shit out of her. Michael also brings out several other women who all wear gloves, lubing and fingering her ass up mercilessly and for a very long time before Michael sends the women away and having four or five dudes fuck Meridan so bad and vigorously. In the end, Michael makes her beg “please” as all the men come on her face and mouth while Michael pulls her by the hair on her scalp. The next scene includes a very tame and unremarkable sex session between Christoph Clark and Sheila Rossi. On another end, Michael Chapman, a mystery girl (wearing a bondage mask the entire time), a mystery guy and Venus (not the one from Who Fucked Rocco? and Belladonna: No Warning) are by an indoor pool, fucking, doing nasty anal fingering to the ladies, including DP action. They all fuck on a weight bench and I’m asking… What the hell is a weight bench doing by a swimming pool?! Ehhh, anyway… Michael Chapman gets to finger the ladies but that’s as far as it’s going to go for him, unfortunately. I didn’t like the mystery woman wearing a mask the entire time. Some part of the scene were hot while others were typical.

The fourth scene includes Christoph having a dream of two women in an empty strip club, dancing and showing off before they get their asses sodomized, fingered and reamed out by two men. The ass play is very dirty, explicit and nasty and Christoph happens to awake from the dream to find one of the females in his bedroom, where Christoph fucks her in the ass and digging in her ass so fucking nastily like a fat kid mercilessly digging his fingers in a peanut butter jar! Now, I’ve seen some nasty anal play in my time, but this was out of control. It’s like Christoph was digging for something in this woman’s ass that wasn’t there at all. There’s also lots of butt noises, queefs all overpowering his hilarious accent as he says “Open! Open! Open! Open!” Christoph afterwards falls asleep with a beer in his hand. The final scene is not only one of Christoph’s most remarkable scenes, but it’s also one of my favorite Daniella Rush scenes of all time, after her makeover and before her tragic accident. Yes, Daniella Rush is one of my five favorite porn starlets of all time and she was all fucking woman! While this scene isn’t as energetic as her scene in something like Face Dance Obsession, this is equally marvelous and an important sex scene to me. This scene is absolutely not for the faint of heart. If you felt Gapeman was ridiculous, chances are you’ll hate this scene also. It begins with Christoph browsing through his camcorder, seeing an episode of him in a strip club checking out a line of several ladies dropping their panties with the thong peeling from between their butt cheeks (which includes a sexy black woman from the islands with braids). Nicole Taylor and Daniella Rush are together in a hotel room, sitting on a toilet. Christoph spends quality time with the both of them, fucking them both in the ass (mainly in doggystyle and missionary positions), having their rectums fingered for a long time, stuffing them with beads. He stretches Daniella’s butt hole so wide and makes her gape horrendously, I almost felt like I was watching Gapeman all over again. Again, Christoph’s accent is hilarious and the way he talks to the ladies is funny. He whistles at them like they’re dogs and tells one of them “And maybe you don’t get the food this night!” after ordering them back in the restroom. There’s also some pip-shots shown from time to time. Just this scene alone makes the entire movie worthy of owning.

DVD QUALITY:
The a/v quality isn’t bad, but it could have been better. If you zoom out of the picture or watch it from a computer, notice some slight VHS tracking flaws at the top of the picture. There’s extra footage, which shows Christoph at a strip club, checking out the ladies (specifically their buttocks, naked or otherwise and heavy accents) and fortunately, there’s more of Daniella Rush and Christoph explaining his style of directing in somewhat of a commentary. There’s a photo gallery, filmographies, etc.

BOTTOM LINE:
Euro Angels Hardball 6: Anal Maniac is the best Christoph Clark video that I’ve seen and though it is, it won’t be the last video of his I’ll see. Next, I plan to watch and review Euro Angels Hardball 7: Anal Ringmaster and maybe, just maybe the eighth installment of the series [Then, I’ll review Rocco’s Power Slave, which will be my final review]. A lot of the action in this movie was remarkable, while very little of it was unnecessary (the second scene being a filler). Whether Michael Chapman got some European ass or not, it doesn’t take away how fun and bizarre it is. This movie was rough in some areas without it being degrading. And while it did not contain any form of sexual violence (unless you count Christoph Clark ripping Daniella Rush’s butt hole wide open almost the size of a tennis ball). I almost felt as if I was watching a collaboration of Fuck Slaves-meets-Anal Acrobats 3. I was so happy to see Daniella Rush again, in another hard-hitting performance. Unlike most porn directors who shoot nasty butt-and-anal antics, Christoph Clark adds not only nastiness, kink and a slight roughness, but a sense of romanticism to it, similar to how John “Buttman” Stagliano’s romantic ass obsession causes him to take it slow and take his time, not rushing through the tease sequences at all (which may bore some viewers). For those who have not seen any of Christoph Clark’s works, this is the video to start with.
