The first Skuff (from the late '90s) was hot. Skuff 2 is even hotter. What's more, it truly lives up to its subtitle: Downright Filthy. When it comes to filth, director Steven Scarborough is your man. An absolute fanatic about dildos-particularly the ass-stretching, small-fireplug size-Scarborough can pretty much be counted on to include at least one scene with dildo action in each movie. Here there are three in the main feature and three more on a bonus disc (which contains all of the "Uncensored Hardcore Material").

Dick Wolf is the first dildo-recipient in an episode called "Walk the Dog." On all fours, leashed and barking, puppy-boy Wolf is given some obedience training by Master Jacob Scott who first outfits Wolf with a dog-tail butt-plug. Great! Wolf wags his hiney eagerly which sends the tail whipping about. After the dog theme is dispensed with, Scott and Wolf get down to some serious dildoing and fucking.

The second dildo scene is "Sling Bang." Alex Collack demonstrates amazing feats of accommodation as Rob Anthony dorks him with an enormous dildo, then with a bigger one. (On Disc 2, the scene continues with an extraordinary fisting session in which Collack directs Anthony as to speed, depth, and other niceties of technique, all the while maintaining compelling eye contact. It is extremely hot.)

In "Star Fucker" Filippo Romano, wearing only a leather jockstrap and T-shirt, gains access to a backstage area where he waits for Daxx Reed. Reed bounces down the stairs from his dressing room, catches a glimpse of sexy Romano in the hallway, and the next thing you know he's up to his ears in Romano's ass-cheeks. Ass-eating, cocksucking, and foreskin nibbling is really good. Romano fucks Reed-then dildoes him. (No, really dildoes him: Romano pulls the dildo completely out and shoves it back in repeatedly.)

"Fuck the Punk," Skuff's opening scene, begins with Collin O'Neal and Arpad Miklos in jockstraps, kissing and sucking aggressively, and concludes with punk Collack being double-penetrated by them for pissing on the floor. The splashing urine is exquisitely photographed. The DP is energetic and lit and lensed carefully enough that we have no doubt that that's what's happening. O'Neal and Miklos' ejaculations are very impressive, as is Joe Foster's pint-load after fucking Cody Scott in a stylized alley in "Bum Fuck."

Lighting and camerawork throughout are first-rate. A superb showcase for Hot House's new exclusives Collack, O'Neal, and Wolf. In addition to the fisting scene already mentioned, the bonus disc includes Collack dildoing and fisting himself, Wolf dildoing himself, and an astonishing sequence of Wolf quenching his thirst at a dog bowl that will have you howling in disbelief and urolagniacs yapping for more.
