NEW YORK - Dark Alley Media has acquired Netherlands-based Primepork Amsterdam, the companies announced Tuesday. The acquisition gives Dark Alley ownership of Primepork's 22-title library plus three unreleased titles, the Primepork website, the company's brand and a Netherlands corporation.
"We are excited to have made this acquisition," said Dark Alley president Matthias von Fistenberg. "Primepork is a brand I have always admired for the unscripted, intense and playful sexuality they present in their movies. The guys in those films never look like they are at work."
Dark Alley Media was the exclusive U.S. distributor of Primepork products until the acquisition. Dark Alley now will handle worldwide and video-on-demand distribution.
"We will continue to produce under the Primepork label," said von Fistenberg. "They have a very large and loyal fan base, and we want all those guys to know that we will continue this line and stay true to the Primepork brand."
Rick Strauss, founder of Primepork Amsterdam, said he was happy to be passing the torch.
"When you work for many years of your life building something that is your own, and when you are ready to move on, nothing is better than knowing that you are leaving your ‘baby' in very talented and capable hands," he said.
"With this purchase, we now have a library of over 50 high-quality hardcore titles, and we are strategically positioned in both the United States and Europe," Dark Alley vice president Owen Hawk said.
The newest release from Primepork, Fisting Book 3, is available for wholesale and retail consumption.
