Assylum.com’s ‘Anal Hell’ Stars Anastasia Rose, Charlotte Sartre

NEW YORK—“Anal Hell,” an extreme 90-minute anal BDSM scene from Assylum.com, stars member favorite Anastasia Rose in a submissive role and the return of the highly popular Charlotte Sartre in a dominant role.

“For me, our best scenes reach high and low at the same time. ‘Anal Hell’ delivers a pornographic yet spiritual and artistic experience of which I’m deeply proud,” said Dr. Mercies, overseer of the session. 

Like many of Assylum’s recent releases, “Anal Hell” is as much a documentary of an authentic BDSM session as it is a recorded piece of entertainment. After agreeing on the concept of the session, the range of sexual and other activities, and a safe word to halt the session if needed, the performers interacted freely within the set as the videographer, working a purpose-built 4K manual-focus camera system, captured the action in real time.

Dr. Mercies added that he was inspired by the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch after an artist friend told him they reminded her of Assylum.

“Bosch’s depictions of hell are filled with sodomy and anal torture, and it’s often hard to determine who’s having a good time versus a bad one,” he said. “In a way, Bosch’s triptychs resound with the paradoxes of BDSM.  So I wanted to explore this hell with Anastasia and Charlotte.  I wanted to explore surreal, twisted, torturous anal scenarios for the release-through-suffering they can offer.”

At the same time, Dr. Mercies said, he’s long been haunted by the description of Hell in Dante’s Inferno. “Dante’s hell is more unforgivingly punishing of lust,” said Dr. Mercies. “I was doing mental battle with his version, I think, in this scene.  I wanted Anastasia’s submission to make hell beautiful—to carry me away and silence the disapproving voices of Dante and others——and reverse the curse of lust I have feared off and on throughout my life. It was such an incredible privilege going on this journey with these two gorgeous, kind, brave, sincere, and self-aware women. The results are just precious.”

For the performers, the session had personal value as well. 

“Returning to Assylum and dominating the prettiest angel in the world was so cathartic for me and a huge turn on. It was an incredible night of demonic debauchery, and I loved every minute of it,” Charlotte said.

According to Anastasia, “I rarely shoot such hardcore, filthy, painful stuff.  I mean, I enjoy rough sex as much as the next girl, but this is a different level. I've never been double dommed, and this was an experience like no other, an experience that other hardcore sites can't produce—something that can only be found at Assylum.”

“Anal Hell” is currently live on Assylum.com. The session is followed by discussion with the performers. 

“We are doing BDSM activities that have become common throughout the community,” said Dr. Mercies. “But while you’ll find plenty of adult videos with rough sex, watersports, bondage, and so forth, there’s still a need for genuine discussion on video around these things. We are going to some powerful mental places; that means we often return with unique perspectives and insights, and we try to share those with the viewers. Our interviews are unstaged and minimally edited. Assylum’s mission is to build bridges between parts of our brains that for too long have been kept sequestered by cultural pressures.”
