Raging Stallion Takes Record Number of Grabby Nominations
Raging Stallion Studios took a record number of nominations for the upcoming Grabby Awards, garnering 41 nominations in 23 categories. This is a Grabby Award record. The studio received multiple nods in most major categories, which means that Raging Stallion films and actors will be competing with each other for top prizes. To The Last Man and The Drifter received half a dozen or more nominations, with both movies being nominated for Best Actor, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Picture. Fetish films such as Sounding #1 and Fistpack 16: Hand it Over are competing against each other in the extreme sex categories. Hotter than Hell Part 2 and Jock Itch #2 were also singled out for nominations.
The competition for Best Actor pits Chicago's Ricky Sinz (To The Last Man) against Logan McCree. Both men are Raging Stallion exclusives and both delivered excellent performances in their respective movies. The supporting actor category is another To The Last Man vs The Drifter match up with Scott Tanner (TLM) competing against Vinnie D'Angelo. In the Best Director's category, its Ben Leon and Tony Dimarco (the Drifter) against Ben Leon, Tony Dimarco and Chris Ward (To the Last Man). Incredibly, three Raging Stallion exclusives are in the running for Performer of the year: Ricky Sinz, Scott Tanner, and Steve Cruz. Cruz is also Naked Sword's current Man of the Year.
"I have always loved the Grabbys," said studio president Chris Ward. "Stacy, Mark, and the whole Grabby Gang have always been kind to Raging Stallion--I think guys in Chicago really click with our kind of film making. Big Daddy Ferguson was one of my early supporters and I am really delighted that the Grabbys have continued to play a role in our industry even though he is no longer with us." When asked about having multiple nominations for many categories, Ward realized that there was a possibility of having the Raging Stallion vote split, Even so, he was pleased with the nominations. "The number of nominations shows the real depth of quality in our films. As a studio, we are really on a roll and all of us, staff, actors....everyone--work very hard to product erotica that people enjoy watching. We are all very happy to receive this kind of industry recognition."
With a significant degree of overlap, Raging Stallion's Grabby nominations mirror the recent GayVN nominations earned by the studio. The Drifter, however, did receive more Grabby nominations than it did at the GayVNS. Raging Stallion recently won the XBIZ awards for best Picture (To The Last Man) and Best Director (Chris Ward, Ben Leon, and Tony Dimarco).
