Audio/Video Quality: Raw 6: Special Set was presented in a nice 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen color as shot by director Manuel Ferrara for Evil Angel using the MPEG-2 codec for the standard definition release with 480p resolution. The colors were accurate in most cases but the footage was shot by Manuel himself (sometimes in POV while other times by setting the camera on a table), giving it a home movie look at times but serving to elevate the chemistry between the couples on display, no one else getting in the way to weaken the bonds. So while there was grain, weird camera work and angles at times, and perhaps lots of opportunities to polish up the raw footage, the title speaks volumes as to what was supposed to happen here and I have to respect the dynamic as advertised. The video bitrate was higher than usual, often in the 6.4 Mbps area or so, helping the show look pretty solid. The audio was presented in the usual 2.0 Dolby Digital English using the 192 Kbps and 48 kHz sampling rate; sounding average at best compared to the video as all the gals could be heard (though the lack of separation and limited dynamic range could also be worked on) but it certainly could have been louder.

Mia Rose

Body of Review: Manuel Ferrara has long been one of the most popular performers with the ladies on both sides of the camera, his work at Evil Angel showcasing how he adores them better than anywhere else. Say what you will about lack of quality extras or technical values, the man delivers in spades the kind of heated fuck flick most of his peers can only dream about offering, the sheer quantity of his works also helping to push them over the proverbial edge. With that, I approached reviewing Raw 6: Special Set with the concern that it couldn’t possibly be as good as some of his previous titles, Manuel opening up his private vaults to showcase some of his most precious memories with attractive ladies of all sorts, ladies that were dripping wet to hook up with the guy. With major players such as beautiful Jynx Maze, Allie Haze, Mia Rose, and Mason Moore, I knew this would be a winner thanks in no small part to the way Manuel offered both popular newcomers as well as some well seasoned veterans many of us like.

Allie Haze

The company website described the flick like this: “Director/ladies' man/hugely hung stud Manuel Ferrara has taken to shooting video footage of his private life dates with lustful, motivated vixens. He releases these long, minimally edited sessions — calling them "scenes" would be a disservice to the genuine, intimate nature of the material — in his "Raw" series. For the double-DVD (nearly six hours!) Raw 6 he has captured four breathtaking encounters that reveal the personalities of the girls and show them as they are behind the scenes — there's no costuming, no lighting crew, no playing to the camera, certainly no script. What's left is a voyeur's dream, what horny girls and amazing sex look like in real, private life. Manuel brings sex-bucket Mason Moore on a beach date, then home for a passionate anal romp. The lush-lipped, buxom brunette with the colorful tattoo sleeve and meaty ass looks stunning in a bikini that can't hold her jugs. Mason's butt cheeks dwarf her trim waist as he sodomizes her to bliss, revealed by her intense facial expressions and animated, curvy body language. Her butthole gapes, she sucks cock ass-to-mouth and buries her head up his ass for a rim job. Chewing gum, pretty, brown-eyed brunette Jynx Maze gets into Manuel's car desperate for sex. After blowing him to completion in an alley, the 'hood-talkin' cutie takes a hard-poundin' butt-fuck punctuated by desperate groans, nasty talk and ass-to-mouth cocksuckin'. Her distressed rosebud gapes, showing pink innards! Manhandling sodomy tames this wild vixen, who whispers, swears and speaks in tongues, her body flailing. Manuel shares an intense, private reunion with Mia Rose, a favorite ass-fuck partner before she quit the XXX business. With breathless excitement they wrap their bodies together for an intense, butt-slapping fuck. She grips the sheets, blushes and cums as he hammers her asshole doggie-style. The amazingly energetic buggery leaves her "so weak I cannot stand up," but still OK to give him an ass-to-mouth blow job. Cute-assed brunette Allie Haze is a playful girl with prominent, brown nipples, a Mohawk strip of pussy fur and a definite exhibitionist streak. She labors to stretch her young pussy around his fat cock, then rides, her butt bouncing, rippling, grinding as Manuel slaps her cheeks and yanks her hair. This furious fucking continues with the expressive-faced Allie on her back and masturbating, her tits, neck and face flushing visibly red as she cums. Raw 6 will be prized by fans who prefer intimate sexual reality to staged porn product — it's like watching the hottie next-door behind closed doors.” Here’s a brief look at the scenes by cast and action, noting that no condoms were used for those still interested:

Scene One: Mason Moore, the heavily tattooed brunette seen on the upper right hand corner of the cover, was up first as she was picked up in the car by Manuel Ferrara, the two discussing her poor driving habits (and popularity among auto repair mechanics). They then stopped at the beach to frolic a little, her bikini barely holding in her tits and hips, the couple finally going for it when back at the house (where he stuffed his hand in her pants to drive her crazy). The angle he took her from initially was not revealing but it was certainly erotic, the ensuing POV blowjob really well done and leading to some vaginal penetration positions in bed. There were more changes in how the camera was held or positioned too, some choking and anal coming later but adding to the passionate dynamic displayed by the couple. There were some breathers included to maximize how long he could last, both of them repeatedly fingering her asshole at times but Manuel ending it by beating off a wad of population pudding to her face (Mason orally assisting); the scene clocking in around the 100 minute mark. The company website aptly described the scene like this: “Manuel brings sex-bucket Mason Moore on a beach date, then home for a passionate anal romp. The lush-lipped, buxom brunette with the colorful tattoo sleeve and meaty ass looks stunning in a bikini that can't hold her jugs. Mason's butt cheeks dwarf her trim waist as he sodomizes her to bliss, revealed by her intense facial expressions and animated, curvy body language. Her butthole gapes, she sucks cock ass-to-mouth and buries her head up his ass for a rim job.”

Scene Two: Jynx Maze, a newcomer that has been taking the porn world by storm, was up next in a car feeling up Manuel Ferrara. This continued until it was full blown road head but it should be mentioned that she looks like a hotter version of mainstream actress Eliza Dushku (Dollhouse, Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, etc.). He had warmed her up first and she reciprocated in the car, an abrupt edit transitioning them from the car to her bending over a desk with nothing on her sweet ass as she teased him with it. Jynx gave him full service oral before they started banging vaginally in the bed, all sorts of positions moving them around and the camera held at times but placed on the table otherwise. She clearly seemed to get off multiple times, their chemistry almost as high as the following Mia scene but her frequent positioning where she presented herself always a treat (bending over and spreading her ass for him to pound). In any case, there was a nod to foot fetish action and more taste testing too, the penetrative positions ending when she swallowed his load of semen from the final blowjob. The company website suggested this of the scene: “Chewing gum, pretty, brown-eyed brunette Jynx Maze gets into Manuel's car desperate for sex. After blowing him to completion in an alley, the 'hood-talkin' cutie takes a hard-poundin' butt-fuck punctuated by desperate groans, nasty talk and ass-to-mouth cocksuckin'. Her distressed rosebud gapes, showing pink innards! Manhandling sodomy tames this wild vixen, who whispers, swears and speaks in tongues, her body flailing.”

Scene Three: Mia Rose, a curvy brunette that had been out of porn for around 18 months per Manuel Ferrara, was up next as the first scene of the second disc. Mia had long been a fan favorite in the industry and her work with Manuel has been so excellent that it compares favorably to his lengthy trysts with Kristina Rose (documented frequently, including in previous volumes of this series). She was wearing olive green attire and after exchanging a few kisses and verbal pleasantries, they went back to a large bedroom to get busy. Manuel set the camera down initially and set it on a wide shot, their kisses, heavy breathing, and other foreplay such that he ate her front and back. Mia reciprocated when he picked up the camera, her oral efforts focusing mostly on the head while both of her hands jerked him off (hand to gland combat folks!). She then started actively riding him in vaginal positions, moving to a slower anal but always showing such enthusiasm and appreciation that it elevated the stroke value and replayability considerably. There was a lot of taste testing and other tricks too but it ended when she took matters into her own mouth one last time, getting him off as he busted all over her face (she even had cum in her nose), the spunk running down her mouth. The company website described the scene like this: “Manuel shares an intense, private reunion with Mia Rose, a favorite ass-fuck partner before she quit the XXX business. With breathless excitement they wrap their bodies together for an intense, butt-slapping fuck. She grips the sheets, blushes and cums as he hammers her asshole doggie-style. The amazingly energetic buggery leaves her "so weak I cannot stand up," but still OK to give him an ass-to-mouth blow job.”

Scene Four: Allie Haze, an exceptionally cute gal making waves of late, was up last as the camera caught her asleep in bed with low enough lighting to give it a “celebrity sex tape” look due to all the grain. Her dog Daisy climbed onto her and then a second dog, both animals giving her puppy kisses before she fell back asleep. The picture resumed with her in the bathroom using much better lighting, showing off her ass and other body parts as she showered, her playful antics including getting a bite to eat by car, feeding her dogs, and otherwise preparing for the entry of Manuel Ferrara. The sex again started on a large bed with the couple kissing, the foreplay including a fair amount of oral and caresses before he picked the camera back up to highlight her POV hummer (and salad tossing). The vaginal plowing was actively handled by both of them, the usual mix of camera angles and sexual positions included (just no anal) included before they figured a way to decide on food (then grabbing a shower) which was just after his dose of genetic juice flew all over her face and his lower abdomen. The company website described the scene like this: “Cute-assed brunette Allie Haze is a playful girl with prominent, brown nipples, a Mohawk strip of pussy fur and a definite exhibitionist streak. She labors to stretch her young pussy around his fat cock, then rides, her butt bouncing, rippling, grinding as Manuel slaps her cheeks and yanks her hair. This furious fucking continues with the expressive-faced Allie on her back and masturbating, her tits, neck and face flushing visibly red as she cums.”

Summary: Raw 6: Special Set by director Manuel Ferrara for Evil Angel might not have been quite as solid as the last volume in the series but I had no doubt that people sick & tired of formulaic porn would appreciate this for the quality and quantity all the same. Further, the raw energy and passion exhibited by all the players here (none were on auto pilot) gave it great replay value and strokability, the fun factor high enough to earn a rating of Xcritic Pick. In short then, Raw 6: Special Set, like all the volumes in the series before it, was a tribute to just how well some ladies respond to the strongest current male performer in the porn industry, the ladies singing his praises as they earned accolades themselves. My personal favorites were Mia Rose and Jynx Maze but Allie Haze and Mason Moore were exceptional too, the spontaneity and raw passion always preferred over the usual staged gonzo I see so much of. Great work!
