Hustler Video has announced plans to release Slipping Into Darkness, which is its first title from director/performer Vanessa Blue.
Blue said this video is about promoting “the power of the pussy.”
“I wanted to totally dig in on the girl power. I was able to take all of my ladies and empower them to fuck the way they have been getting out-fucked in previous movies,” she told AVN.com. “I’m allowing the girls to fuck back.”
Blue, who runs a Website called www.femdomx.com and also owns VBX Productions, specializes in shooting female-dominant sex scenes.
“Most of us are made to feel inferior or not as important as the guy, and I let the girl know from the makeup chair that she’s the most important thing,” Blue said. “… I happen to be getting pretty lucky with picking the right girls. Most of us have a lot of pent-up sexual energy that we’re not allowed to let go of. I try to get the girls to let go of that sexual energy. If she has the energy, I try to let the girl do more of the fucking than the guy. We make it very pro pussy.”
She continued, “I will never shoot a scene where the girl is in anything less than a position of power. There is enough product like that already.”
Blue gives special attention to female orgasms in her scenes because she believes that’s something that is often overlooked.
“I’ve done too many scenes where I know I got off and it is never captured,” she said.
Blue’s strong XXX background includes directing three-time AVN Performer of the Year Lexington Steele in the Black Reign series, which won Best Ethnic-Themed Series at the 2005 AVN Awards. She has directed about 15 titles so far in addition to about 150 credits as a performer over an eight-year span.
“That style I carried with me even for before Lex’s company, when I was just shooting for my Website,” said Blue, a native of Beaumont, Texas.
The female cast for Slipping Into Darkness includes Mya Lovely, Stacey Cash, Lori Alexia, Sofia Sandobar and Jenna Brooks. Blue also performs in a scene with Mark Wood. Kurt Lockwood, Alec Knight, Reno, Mac Turner, Alberto Rey and Brett Rockman round out the male cast.
“It takes a very special guy to work in this type of project,” Blue admitted. “There are guys who can handle it and who love it. As far as the girls, I just try to shoot beautiful women of color. Most of us have a lot of pent-up anger anyway. It’s just a matter of getting her to the point where she’s comfortable enough to release it. And she’s not just an angry, bitter bitch, but an angry bitch, and she’s feeling better afterward. She’s satisfied.”
Blue continued, “I’ve been in adult since 1996 myself, and in most of my scenes, when I got aggressive, the director would turn the camera off and what you end up with is bullshit scenes.
“…My goal is to put black women into scenes where people, just for some odd reason, have chosen not to. Ultimately, I’ll just be shooting the inevitable.
“I only hope that the work I do is going to open up more doors for other women who want to direct and are serious about it.”
Slipping Into Darkness will hit the streets on March 8.
