I cracked a real smile yesterday for the first time since Tuesday. My order from AdultDVDEmpire finally arrived with some first class smut. It included Rocco: Animal Trainer 6, so for those who wondered, yes, it seems pretty good (upon a quick view). And there's good news in the filmographies, Tricia has gone ahead of schedule to let us know that Monika Sweetheart and Jessica Twain (Please! 9 and Killer Pussy 2) will both be in the upcoming Rocco Ravishes Prague 4!
I also got Animal Trainer 5, which seems pretty good, and Euro Hardball 11, which was great (both based on quick views). The other three DVDs I had seen before, Rocco's Reverse Gangbang (too bad, the extra footage didn't have as much of the Hungarian scene as I hoped), Euro Hardball 13 (I rented the VHS), and Rocco Ravishes Prague 3 (rented and reviewed the DVD months ago).
My final purchase was on VHS. Euro Angels 25 had a stellar cast list, and is years away from DVD release, so I took a chance on it. I'm glad I did, it is one of Christoph Clark's "hot sex" movies, instead of his "cram every finger and toy possible up her butt" type. I'll post a full review on RAME eventually, but for the fans of Euro chicks, let me tempt you with the following:
The cast list is a bit off. But here are the women, using the names by which they are best known.
Scene 1: Anita Black (Rocco's Initiations 3, House of Love, 2 on 1 8 & 9) and Sophie Evans
Scene 2: Sylvia Sun (lotsa movies), Sharone (Fresh Meat 10, The Voyeur 19, Animal Trainer 5), and a pretty blonde
Scene 3: Stephanie Steele
Scene 4: Sylvia and Brigitte (Initiations 3) short scene
Scene 5: Henriette Blonde (aka Angelica Bright, Indiana Mack 1, Riviera 2, Debauchery 10)
Scene 6: Sylvia and Brigitte again, longer scene
CC usually includes a fake pee scene, and I was desperately hoping that he would have one with Anita. Sure enough, she and Sophie have sex with Leslie Taylor on a boat in the Danube, and most of the action happens while it is stopped by the shore. While Anita is getting finger attention from both others, she suddenly breaks away, hops overboard, and wades ashore. She then squats in the grass and seems to let it go. Stalks of grass obscure the view of her pussy, so it could well be faked, but Anita sells it for us by groaning in relief, and then giving a piss shiver, before splashing her crotch with water on her way back to the boat. What a sexy interlude, if you are into this sort of thing (lots of porn watchers are, but I find few to admit to it, still, someone is buying all those pee tapes on the market).
Even if you plan to FF the pee moment, the rest of the tape is highly recommended to all Euro chick admirers. I'll post reviews on ADT for the DVDs as time allows (once I finish a project in early December, I'll be posting 20 or more reviews that I have in rough form on note cards). But with Euro Angels 25, since it is likely the last CC title to eventually make it to DVD, don't hesistate to go for the VHS.
Added note: I mentioned Adult DVD Empire above because I took advantage of their $25 off coupon. Without it, I would have purchased few titles at once. What a useful coupon!

Thanks for the info and the short form recommendations Speelie! It's definitely useful.

You seem to have seen a number of the Euro Angels series (perhaps all on VHS), but haven't reviewed any here.

Which are your 3 or 5 favorite Euro Angels? Are any of the 3 on DVD (1-3 it reports here) up there in the series? Where does EA 25 fit on your list? (I don't know if you already own some other EA tapes.)

Since you da man on Rocco, I've giving you spill over cred!

BTW, after your tip off re: Gabriel Nine I went and looked at some of his reviews. Mosly on RAME via google groups. He's definitely good on Christoph stuff it looks like. (Can't know for sure from my point of view, since I haven't seen any yet.) Though I do have Euro Angels Hardball 1 and 11 on order, after reading all his RAME reviews on that series. I suspect I'll be picking up some more by and by also.

I'm actually not sure how to answer you. You see, I have seen the first few Euro Angels movies, and then the odd one here and there along the way (#13, #19, and one or two others), but I have come nowhere close to seeing them all. I had to depend on what my local mom and pop shop stocked, which was far from all of them. The same for Euro Hardball, they got some in, but not most.
On top of that are some other matters. One, I didn't used to keep such detailed notes (mental and written), before I had access to XRentDVD.com (I can now see just about any movie released on DVD). Two, the Euro talent pool has changed tremendously over the course of the Angels and Hardball movies. And three, Christoph ended the Euro Angels series at 25. What could have been 26, 27, and so on came out instead as unique titles such as Big Natural Tits, A Bevy of Blondes, Birthday Booty, etc. With this change to unique titles, he upped his overall quality, putting more care into the casting, situations, and shooting.
The result of this is that Euro Angels 1 is a lot different in feel from say, A Bevy of Blondes. Some might argue that this isn't true, the theme is still Euro chicks and plenty of anal, but the women now, overall are better looking, and more of them are into the sex. The overall focus has gone from guys having fun (as in LeCastel movies) to showing incredibly intense anal, to now showing really hot, intense sex in which the women have fun too (and many scenes don't have anal).
So, there are many I have not seen, but I'm gradually catching up on the ones available on DVD. Of Euro Angels, I liked #1, which wasn't much different from CC's Private movies of the time (such as Profession: Porn Actress and The Perversion of Barbara). I liked #3 quite a bit too, and also #13. I didn't especially care for #17 or 19. I am intrigued by the stretch #21-25, since a bunch of my favorite actresses appear in them, which is why I took a chance and bought #25 on VHS. It is quite good, but nothing special. It is well worth viewing for the great cast, and I don't regret buying it, but if the women are not your favorites, it is only average for CC.
I've only seen a few of the Hardball. I remember really liking parts of #4 on VHS, and I don't remember #8, I'm sorry to say. #6 was ok, but is made worth seeing by Meridian's presence. On DVD I loved #12 (see my review), and #11 seems great after a quick view, while #13 I think is pretty good.
The reason I bought #13 is because it has mostly the same cast (and locations) as Hey Babe, Nice Tits, which I absolutely loved. A Bevy of Blondes is also great IMHO. Beautiful Girls 1 and Birthday Booty both have good moments, but I didn't like them as much (only seen on VHS). I rented the DVD of Beautiful Girls 2, and found the women overly tattooed, and sometimes not real good looking, but the sex was so hot I decided to keep it. Big Natural Tits has some good moments, it isn't his best work but I kept it also because some women I like a lot are in it.
So at this moment, the ones I recommend most from CC are: A Bevy of Blondes, Hey Babe, Nice Tits, and Hardball 11 & 12. Your mileage may well vary.
I'll write more reviews as time allows, but as I have stated, that may not be until December for most of them. Thanks for the good words!

A few comments - I have seen most but not nearly all of these series but I hope I can make some useful remarks if you want to dip your toes in...

Euro Angels has so many great girls over all those volumes, but as you can imagine over so much material, the quality of the scenes varies. Speelie, you are so right to say that the vibe is very different from the kind of material Christoph is shooting now, though the end results may be somewhat similar. It used to be more "gonzo". I'd say that either of the first two are as good as any, and conveniently are out on DVD! Nikki Anderson in EA1, Eniko gangbanged in EA2 are among several memorable scenes. I don't entirely agree that the talent is necessarily better now - there are definitely many attractive girls who are very into it in the older volumes - but I think it's true to say that right now Christoph (and everyone who shoots in Europe) has access to some phenomenally cute girls who really are very much into it, and can at least make it look like they are having fun.
In much of Euro Angels, the sex is probably nastier that current stuff (e.g. Beautiful Girls, Bevy of Blondes) but whether that makes it hotter is a moot point.

A problem in EA can be that some scenes where Christoph is both stud and cameraman are not so well done, but sometimes (eg Suzi in EA 14) this creates very hot intimate sex.
Also, EA through the mid to late teens does have some scenes that maybe should not really have been released (in my opinion) and indeed could just as easily have been in Hardball.

Hardball is equally variable, but has some real highpoints. It can see some less attractive women but the sex is often very strong, plus there's lots of fetish wear and a general strong male dominant vibe, though actual BDSM activity is largely absent. Like I say, sometimes scenes can be hard to distinguish from series to the other.
Again, Hardball 1 is about the best, but also Hardball 11 is as good as any. Somehow I kept thinking Christoph would really nail it on this series in terms of sex, style and everything, but somehow he manages to slightly fuck it up in some small way so it's never quite as good as it could have been (especially so on 5).

Just watching Bevy of Blondes right now, and the difference in the shooting is particularly marked from Euro Angels 1 back in 1997, and let's face it you would hope Christoph had improved over this time.

Speelie, hope you can get those reviews posted, I am running a little behind on the latest Evil Angel releases, though I am sure I will buy pretty much everything in the end!

I should also say that you should also check reviews from kafka for Euro releases. His reviews are more strictly factual and ID based, but he and Speelie are way ahead on the IDs of the girls!
