GRUNTS SMASHES INDUSTRY SALES RECORDS

Who says DVD's are dead or dying? Raging Stallion's DVD sales numbers for November were the highest in the company's history, largely on the overwhelming response to GRUNTS. Indeed, in only two weeks of release, GRUNTS has become the top selling movie of 2007 and sales continue to build at an amazing pace. The last time the studio had such a run-away hit was ARABESQUE, which went on to sell nearly 30,000 units. The average film in today's market sells between 2,000 and 3,000 units, a number GRUNTS has already passed.

Reviews are starting to trickle in on GRUNTS, all of them unanimous in calling the blockbuster military epic an instant classic. Some are calling it the best military porn movie ever made while others are saying that GRUNTS may be one of the best porn movies ever made. Period. As these reviews are published (we are just seeing advance copies sent directly to us before publication) we will post them on GRUNTSTHEMOVIE.com.

GRUNTS is expected to garner a number of nominations during this year's porn awards season. Company president Chris Ward was very excited about some of the actors in the film in particular. "I really hope Jake Deckard, Ricky Sinz, and Steve Cruz are singled out for nomination because of their work in GRUNTS. Jake, I think, has a real chance at being a contender for Performer of the Year, and who other than Steve Cruz could possibly be newcomer of the year? Ricky Sinz is a great choice for best supporting actor. I guess we will have to wait and see what happens! It is hard to predict what the judges will nominate, but these guys are serious contenders!"

GRUNTS is available as a special six-disc inclusive set, or it can be purchased in three, two disc packages. For more information on GRUNTS please visit Ragingstallion.com, GayDVD.com, GRUNTSTHEMOVIE.com or TLAVIDEO .com.

Brodie Sinclair

Hey Everyone--

I guess some of you may have heard that Brodie Sinclair is no longer a Raging Stallion exclusive. He did some work for us last year, starring as one of the Army dudes in GRUNTS. He also filmed a great scene in the studio with Roman Ragazzi that has still not been released.

There has been some controversy about the circumstances that led to Brodie's departure and some hurt feelings all around. I want to make sure that all of Brodie's fans know that his work for us was good--I very much enjoyed filming him for GRUNTS. Near the end of the GRUNTS shoot, when everyone was exhausted and tempers were as hot as the 100+degree weather, Brodie and I had a disagreement. We both decided that he would be let out of his contract.

We wish Brodie well for the future and I personally look forward to seeing his work for other studios!

Raging Stallion Launches New Latin Line with BangBangBoys.com

San Francisco based Raging Stallion Studios today announced the launch of a new international line of videos, a project that is being developed in association with Gavin Lowe, former producer for Matt Sterling and head of BangBangBoys.com, one of the web's hottest all-male sites. The first release in the series is Tall, Dark, and Latin, a DVD set to street this week.
Company president Chris Ward has long wanted to bring Lowe in as a Raging Stallion director. "Gavin makes great movies and he has this uncanny ability to find some of the hottest men on Earth! A year or so ago he brought BangBangBoys.com to our network (Gunzblazing.com) and we have wanted to release his erotica on DVD ever since. It’s great stuff and I am very proud to have him as part of the Raging Stallion team!"

The new BangBangBoys.com series, to be marketed under the Raging Stallion general brand, will have between three and six releases per year. These fit in as part of an ambitious release schedule for Raging Stallion that calls for a new movie on DVD every seven days throughout 2008 (for a total of 50 releases).

"Our DVD sales are really going thru the roof," noted Ward. "We see no decline in DVD sales whatsoever and indeed, we see rapid expansion. Our web sales are also booming, in large part to the great variety of product that we put out. The BangBangBoys line will give us a strong continuing presence in the Latin niche." Raging Stallion has taken the top ethnic-Latin prize at the GayVns for several years in a row.
