Audio/Video Quality: The picture was presented in 1.33:1 ratio full frame color. It had lots of rough edges and was definitely unpolished in most ways-which meant grain, and lighting issues at times. Since part of the appeal of this release is in that look, I'll be easier on rating it as though it were a feature with fixed sets but some people don't like this type of thing. The audio was in stereo with little separation and a lot of chaos going on much of the time.

Body of Review: Super Mario is the name of an English guy who, in gonzo style, carts around a friend who carries a camera, as he picks up women and has anal sex with them. In this recently released dvd, Anal Days: Mario's Raunchy Road Trip Vol. #2, I got to see a decidedly interesting group of people from across the seas and how they make gonzo porn. If you've seen any of the Buttman movies, you'll get the idea although, to be fair to Mario and crew, while they've borrowed the concept, they seem to have added a bit of their own English brand of flavor to the show.

Okay, there was a lot of anal sex here, nearly as much as you'll find elsewhere, and condoms aren't used but why get something that essentially imitates the work of a master? Well, I think this is going to appeal to couples that want to see other people enjoying sex, in a non-scripted way with all the spontaneity that it entails, and with a cast that is not professionally hot looking. By this I mean that the average age is much higher than most American produced porn, the performers look like regular people, and it looks like a bunch of horny people who went on a roadtrip one weekend and did what comes naturally. In "regular porn" there often seems like a list of positions, acts and locations that are checked off before the end so this really had some appeal to me too.

I decided that in honor of the way the movie was made, there are often bits of sex added in over the course of the trip that wouldn't qualify as full "scenes", that I'd refrain from my usual style of review too. While the jumbled look of the movie as a whole, which often left bits in that would get edited in any other production, wasn't what I want to see all the time, I certainly hope to check out other efforts by Mario and Bob. As such, I rate this low budget gonzo road trip as Recommended unless you want to see domestic porn stars, polished film making, and the cookie cutter approach typically used in making these movies.
