Euro Domination  
Evil Angel

So often in hardcore porn, the subjects beloved of the BDSM scene are merely toyed with rather than used explicitly in tandem with the hardcore sex. It can be a little frustrating for those who like to see something a little kinky with their porn. Naturally I was interested to see that the inestimable Mr Clark offers us Euro Domination, with a promise of "heavy fetish" to go with the typical Christoph combination of beautiful girls and strong anal-oriented sex. As to whether this promise is delivered, let's delve straight into those rubber clad nether regions to find out. With the long-running Hardball series, Christoph has given himself a lot to live up to, so just how does he develop this intriguing premise?

Sandra Romain and Simona
This opening number is arguably the strongest scene in the movie, not just in terms of sexual content but also because Christoph seems to have invested the most time and effort in atmosphere and style - not to mention in the costumes. As I have often cheekily scoffed at Christoph's minuscule costume budgets (the same denim shorts appeared in one Euro Angels after another) it's only fair that I credit the stunning fetish wear he's chosen for the girls.

Picture the scene, then. A decaying rail yard, little Sandra chained up, vulnerable, boobs exposed in a red harness bra, bum pushed up high by spike heeled boots, her big brown eyes peering from a red and black latex hood, betraying her tension as dominant Simona strides into the setting. Her look, by contrast, is extremely glamorous: hair piled high, extravagant make up, breasts exposed, waist cinched by a corset that exaggerates her flaring hips, legs wrapped in pattered net stockings and set off by huge heels.

Simona wields a cat-o'-nine-tails, not exactly convincingly, but enough to suit the purpose, whacking Sandra then offering a soothing hand as a mere cruel diversion before more whacks. Towering over the petite Romanian, Simona leads her into the loco shed where she is made to kneel as Simona most elegantly spreads her large buttocks and expels a milk enema directly into the willing slave's mouth. This is quite a surprise, certainly the first time I am aware of seeing action that is typically the preserve of German specialist series in a release from an American studio. Could I get away with describing this act as an acquired taste? Perhaps not! Whatever, viewers will certainly get the chance to become accustomed to the idea as Simona uses a douche to refill and continue the subjugation of her little plaything.

Further Germanic porn flavour is lent to the action as Simona begins anally probing Sandra using well-lubed fingers, bare and then in black rubber gloves. More fingers are added. Full on fisting? Not quite, but again I reach for the creaky old puns by saying it's pretty near the knuckle. Ahem.

Whatever, great fun and it's a nice touch to see Sandra nod her approval as Simona pushes further into the nether regions. Then they break out a simply giant dildo with which to inflict further punishment on Sandra's bum, Sandra willingly squatting on the colossal toy, before Simona claps her hands and three men, naked and ready for business, appear and get Simona more actively involved (for me, she never really takes charge in the way she ought to in order to make this truly convincing) by supplying the guys with luscious blowjobs before they set about Sandra's ass.

In my view at least, this is where the luxurious sense of perversity lapses into more routine porno sex, with lots of turns being taken alternately between Sandra's backside and Simona's mouth. It ain't hygienic, kids, but it's pretty f'n rude. Gapes abound, naturally, and though the action picks up as Sandra responds noisily to some seriously stiff shaggin', what really provides the buzz for me is to see Simona finally surrender her rear, spreading her full thighs and taking it deep in that big old bum. Marvellous. Sadly, it's a little too brief and it's not long before Sandra is made to kneel and receive the men's loads, splattering onto the hood she wears through the whole scene. Simona laps at the come before leading her slave away…

Judy White
While it might seem slightly puzzling to have one of the most attractive girls in the movie wearing a hood for the entire scene, upon watching it through I found it does actually work. I'll explain more in a moment. First, Christoph depicts another kinky scenario with a certain other frisson about it. Not only does Greg Centauro have Judy in more alluring black rubber imprisoned in a full body iron, he also has Jean-Yves Le Castel trapped in a set of metal stocks, his limp cock lewdly bulging from tiny latex pants. Did I conjure an unpleasant mental image for you there? Wait till you see it.

Cruel Greg blows cigarette smoke in his slaves' faces, both of which are obscured by hoods. Judy is freed and instructed to tease Le Castel, first with a cane and then with her sensuous mouth. Christoph rightly highlights her shapely bottom as she crawls around to suck the helpless man's cock. Her bottom is lightly spanked with a rubber glove before Le Castel is freed and the men indulge in a ritualistic preparation of Judy's anus for the sodomy that will inevitably follow. First, however, there is a rather slow build up with plenty of time spent on anally fingering Judy as she sits in a gynaecology chair, before relieving her bladder onto the floor. It's rather erotic to see her so exposed in this position, which does as always beg the question about exactly what male gynaecologists get out of their profession.

Greg orders Le Castel to take Judy to the next room where a leather sex hammock has been set up. She's placed in it and he doesn't stand on ceremony, fucking her hard and fast. Her boobs bounce beautifully though gaps in her latex outfit, boobs that Le Castel whacks with a rubber glove before she's taken back into Dr Centauro's care for some stern sodomy on that gynaecology chair. As always, Judy performs noisily and responsively to some pretty sound screwing till the guys unload on her hood and her tongue curls lasciviously from the mouth slit to lick the sperm. Then we see the shot that really pays off, her extraordinary eyes sparkling from inside the hood.

Sandra DeMarco and Claudia Rossi
On opposite couches - can't get away from them even in this movie - tall blonde Sandra and sweet brunette Claudia alternately writhe under the ministrations of rubber gloved hands that sneak in from out of shot. The girls, both in super fetish outfits, submissively offer up their rear ends to the anonymous probing fingers. Then Claudia's own rubbered up fingers make their way to Sandra's well-travelled bunghole. While she might not take quite the same pleasure as my old favourite Meridian did when doing similarly naughty things to darling Daniella Rush's rear, Claudia does indeed appear to enjoy the chance to molest Sandra. Again, it's not quite full on fisting - mostly strong four fingered reaming - but it's a cheeky little number with a hint of thumb! Needless to say, Christoph's camera doesn't shy away from full on slave's eye view shots of the explicit anal action.

Three hooded men appear and Claudia dishes out blowjobs to three hooded men who move quickly to spear Sandra's rear. Thus commences a wealth of the type of strong fucking that these girls revel in: masses of anal, double penetration, ass to mouth and gaping anuses. The finale sees Claudia take two of three loads, Sandra takes the other and the girls are compelled to kiss.

The problem is, however, that as much as I love to see Claudia in particular looking so heavenly and being so devilishly naughty, the fact remains that the pair of them are just so professional about this and will be seen being professional about it again in the companion movie Beautiful Girls 16. Sandra De Marco has been in the last five editions of Euro Hardball and Claudia can't be far behind, along with the rest of their Prague chums like Jessica Fiorentino and Liliane Tiger…

Liliane Tiger

Talk of the devil! Having seen Liliane many times now, I am aware she'll do virtually everything expected of the consummate porn professional, yet somehow she seems slightly removed from what she's doing. Fortunately in this scene she has a co-star in Nick Lang who does seem to create some sense of chemistry with her. But that's later. First, Christoph provides a rather risqué set-up in the back of an MPV touring the tourist-lined streets of Amsterdam: Liliane is on a leash, ball-gagged, with legs spread wide to reveal her pierced and tattooed sex to anyone who cares to peep into the window. The mood seems to lack a little something till Nick makes a comment that strikes the right note and he insists she plug her own ass repeatedly with a toy while pedestrians pass right by the car.

Public exposure is taken to another level as he leads her still in her kinky attire and intimately exposed across the street to the apartment where we saw the earlier action. She is restrained on a St Andrew's cross and unleashes a stream of pee on the floor. Nick feeds her droplets from her shiny boots. I must say the way her boobs jut out from the harness bra and the corset cinches her waist is superb, and it's here that we really see a little spark between the pair.

Liliane's own gloved fingers slip into her backside, Nick stuffs his cock in her mouth and she reacts in somewhat exaggerated fashion when he fingers her anus. She also rather pointlessly sucks a dildo suspended from the ceiling as he starts to fuck her. Naturally the action is heavily anal oriented, Nick cheekily pulling out and asking if she wants it. She slaps what is quite a big bum for a wee lass before they break out the anal balls. She wanks herself but does she really come? The phrase "cry wolf" springs to mind as they return to stern bum banging. The finale is cute - he comes on her cupped hands, and as she laps up his sperm, she whispers, "I love you." Now that is kinky.

Conclusion
Euro Domination delights and disappoints me in equal measures. There are some sensational moments, moments I never expected to see, and some super touches of genuine decadence but equally there is an awful lot of quite typical anal porn. If I had hoped Euro Domination would take the blend of BDSM and hardcore sex to another level, I fear it is slightly disappointing. The opening scene really delivers a full flavour (again, no pun intended) of perverse action played out with some style, but then we do largely lapse into material that would sit comfortably in any edition of Hardball with only sporadic returns to that sexy mood.

I do feel somewhat remiss in being unable to make a full comparison with the German producers currently exploring this field (e.g. Alex D) but in its own way, Euro Domination certainly adds a touch more style to the mix than Euro Hardball without being a huge development of that series. But you know what? I really miss the grittiness of Christoph's older stuff. He's just so damn proficient at this now, and the girls he casts are so practised in these arts, that it really does seem just a little too slick. There you go - I always used to have a pop at Christoph jumping up to change the camera and his bargain-basement video effects, and now I miss the old bugger's input! There's just no pleasing some people…

Anyway, I don't want to suggest for a moment this is substandard - far from it. It's shot with supreme confidence and supplies a serious dose of strong pornography. Despite my gripes of over familiarity, the cast is superb and they are dressed in some fabulous outfits. Maybe it doesn't match my expectations - which were high based on a long standing admiration of Clark's work - but it is a step in the right direction and I know many viewers are really going to revel in the debauchery. It's not quite the groundbreaking release I had hoped for but my God, it is one very rude movie!

DVD Comments

The details are as expected: superb picture quality, excellent sound, great menus, and multiple chapters per scene so you can easily jump to the bit that made you say, "Did she really do that?" Add an interesting behind the scenes clip which revels in the gory detail of that milk enema scene, the usual photos, text biography and filmographies and voila, another fine product from Evil Angel.
