Hi; Been out of the loop, but recently wandered back. Used to seek out Anabolic and Seymore Butts. Boy things have changed! So what happened to Seymore? Is he still producing? My enquiring mind wants to know.
Back in the day, Seymore was the man. I remember, in the late '90s, going to my local video store to the 'adult' VHS section--you know, the one they hid behind the curtain--and seeking out all the Seymore titles I could find. I couldn't believe the stuff this guy was shooting--close ups of Alisha Klass and Samantha Stylle's sphincters, squirting, pissing, ass-to-mouth, interracial; Butts was blazing trails for guys like Jay Sin & Mike Adriano. Yeah, I know there were other hardcore companies around too (Red Light & Anabolic) but I think what turned me on was--like Sin and Adriano-- Butts was able to get, for the most part, the hottest girls to do the nastiest shit. Alisha, Samantha, Envy, Halli Aston, Alexandra Nice, McKayla Matthews and a few others come to mind. Edited by - edking on 10/30/2011 2:15:13 AM
after hearing what happened to Max Hardcore, i'd bet Seymore may tame it down a bit.

Haven't seen a lot of Seymore's work, but the two I do remember was with a latina by the name of Mari Possa. She was fricking hot. Almost thought she was his girlfriend. One scene I recall, she was giving Seymore a blowjob while he was driving down the freeway and the other at some island resort were she gets fucked in the butt. Wish she was still active.
Those early Seymore movies were some of my "gateway to gonzo" favorites. He really did pick up the lessons of Buttman and further pioneer that "up close and personal" POV style that guys like Adriano use now. I'm not sure I really needed my porn to be THAT up close and personal, he could drag out a BJ scene into 40 mins of increasingly abstract and noisy slurping, but his classic stuff had a real vibe. Mari Possa is hot but by the time he was doing the cable show, his stuff just seemed cranked out. He'd be smarter not to shoot any new porn and just roll with whatever mainstream cred he has to bank on.
Seymore Butts already had his turn in the courthouse, long before Max Hardcore. The fisting scenes in "Tampa Tushy Fest" and "The Fist, The Whole Fist, and Nothing But the Fist" brought him unwanted attention.
^My only problem with Adriano is, what's with the clear plastic crap (a speculum?) he feels the need to insert into every other girl's ass? I have no problem with creampies, male to female or female to female rimming etc., but Christ, I have no need to see the girl's lower intestines! Is that from the Max Hardcore School of Film Production? I was starting to watch a new trailer for his The Spit and the Speculum on evilangelvideo.com and I couldn't even get through it, as one girl commences to use a straw to suck spit from another girl's ass. Circus acts like this turn me off. But I guess they feel there's a market for this stuff, otherwise the movie would not have been made. Edited by - edking on 11/1/2011 12:57:24 AM
That was all Max's schtick. He's the Speculum Savant of Gonzo. I usually fast forward through those moments. Every scene is like 87 minutes long, so I usually just find a stretch I like and go with that. I'm also not a fan of super-duper asshole close-ups, since at that point it could be ANY asshole out there, so you might as well be watching gay porn. Darkko can get pretty fractal as well, but he somehow remembers that there's an actual girl attached to the orifice. I think Adriano gets so lost in the glory of it all, it becomes a private funworld that excludes the viewer's interest in putting a face to the felch funnel. I enjoy his casting ideas, though, and I'm always down for heavy duty slobbering blowjobs, of which his episodes deliver plenty.
I am not sick but some of Mike Adrianos movies with the speculum are so sexy. Esp the one with Cassandra Cruz, her facial expressions and the things she says with it in her drive me crazy.
ANYWAY... Seymore Butts... was he a victim of overexposure due to the Showtime show? I never saw the show but I can imagine he burned the candle at both ends while doing that show. I haven’t seen many of his vids but I do know he was the first director to film Avy Scott getting it in the ass! She signed on as a contract girl with him, but as I understand it, things did not end well. That had to be a huge scoop at the time, being the first in Avy's sweet ass.
^ I can tolerate a few speculum scenes, if the girls are hot. When I saw the cast list that included four of my favorite hotties--Julez, Dana, Phoenix and London--what the hell, I thought, I'll give it a look. What I didn't expect to see was girls using straws to suck fluids out of each other's gaping asses.
Married the drummer to the band Orgy, had two kids, and occasionally shows up at adult conventions and what not. But the whole Shane's World title debacle really soured her on the industry for quite a while.
I believe they still are together, but not sure. She stopped doing adult films when they got back together again after signing an exclusive deal with Adam and Eve.
The third title that Butts already has completed is called “Brooklyn Egg Cream On the Roxxxx” which stars Brooklyn Lee, Aiden Aspen, Angelina Valentine, Rachel Roxxx and Kelli Klass. “Each scene kind of contributes to that title,” Butts explained, adding that one of the highlights entails Aspen “squeezing hard-boiled eggs out of her ass.” Come on now!
I loved Seymore Butts when he was shooting Alisha Klass and Taylor Hayes. I think that Mari Possa was his secretary, she ask to be in a movie on his reality show "Family Business". His mom was against him letting her doit, my memory is correct. Mike Adriano shoots some extra hardcore shit, he gets all the girls that don't do IR. L.T. even made a comment about recommending girls to Mike. You never seen that kind of shit in Seymore films he had wm/bf bm/wf bf/wf american europe all of them screwing.
^I was a huge fan of Seymore Butt. His shooting style was sometimes a little annoying but the man simply loved asses and anal and knew how to shoot some really hot scenes. I'm just wondering if he's looking to shot something similar as his older stuff or if he wants to shoot something different. The above scene description isn't what I hoped he would do. This sounds more like stuff Jay Sinn does in his movies. The question begs asking. Is Seymore coming back to the business at the wrong time? I mean most studios are struggling to make a buck so can the market really handle a new player?
One the Loose was the 1st modern porno I had. Because like most of us the 1st porn we get our hands on belongs to someone else. Most likely your Dad, Brother, Uncle or maybe even your friends family or what have you. So because of this all the smut I watched up until the Internet(98) and turning 18(2001) was from 70s & 80s. To illustrate my point, my best friend's dad had a copy of On the Loose. Man, it was a revelation. Gonzo style, No cheesy movie or plot. Shot in a regular looking living room or for most of this movie, a hotel room. Most importantly, the smoking hot Shane. Goddamn was that woman sexy. Like I said, she was "modern" hot. Tight, tanned with a good looking set of FoObS. As I recall, most of the movie was just scenes with Seymour and Shane. I know Tiffany Tower was in a 1/2 scenes. I vaguely recall a dark hair broad but maybe not. I went back and watched it after becoming well verse in world of update/gonzo smut. I found it rather boring to be honest. Shane was still hot. Whatever became of her? Outside of one instance, I didn't really care for Seymour Butts. No hating on the guy. Just wasn't for me. Mostly because IR(which he shot) became the dominate type of smut that I consumed.
Long live Seymore Butts! :) "Does Europe vol. 2" is probably my all time favorite pornflick. Alisha Klass smoking weed in the coffeshop with him, getting mad stoned. Then assfucked like the world had never seen... :) His video game was beyond epic. lol.
