CHATSWORTH, Calif.—Manville Entertainment, home to such comedic features as Twinky and the Bear and Drilligan's Island, is launching a new division: Manville Classics. The studio best known for all-male XXX parody has decided to venture into the vaults for gay blue movie footage, all of it previously unreleased on DVD.
“I was ecstatic to have found a treasure-trove of retro films in the vaults of our brother studios,” exclaimed Austin, Executive Producer for Manville Entertainment. “This is gay porn from a time when the content was often produced and released underground. The sex is raw, the men natural and masculine.”
Beyond being a time-capsule of gay porn in its infancy, the movies are a reflection of an era of unapologetic sexual expression, since all the footage is pulled from film stock and beta masters.
“Due to the age of these masters, minimal modern technology has been applied to contrast, stabilization, and sound," added Austin. “I did not want to lose the essence of what these movies reflect: straightforward man-on-man sex from a bygone era.”
Among Manville Classics' first releases will be Retro Interracial Relations, All Dark Meat of Yesteryear, Retro Trios, and Classic Loops: Gay XXX from the Past, which will hit stores and e-tailers in August 2018. Manville Classics will launch with its first release, Classic Loops: Gay XXX from the Past on Tuesday, August 7, with a steady stream of new titles coming out weekly.
Manville Entertainment is additionally pleased to announce that GayHotMovies will have exclusive, pre-release VOD rights for the month of July on Manville Classics' inaugural titles.
“GayHotMovies is very proud of our Classics category, and we are very honored Manville Entertainment is entrusting us with exclusive pre-release of their new line. We are very excited to see what Austin has unearthed, and know our customers will be thrilled as well,” said a GayHotMovies representative.
Manville Entertainment is distributed by industry powerhouse Pulse Distribution. Fans may follow Manville Entertainment here and on Twitter.
“Customers love the classics,” declared Pulse Distribution VP of Sales Hyland C. “We are very excited to bring this retro gay content to our ever-expanding library.”
