Reviews: House of Ass
“The spontaneous and blunt opinions Tristan elicits are what makes the DVD quite extraordinary. I know some will find my behavior bizarre, but I rushed through the sex parts to listen to what the next person had to say.” —Susie Bright
“The best thing about House of Ass is that it fulfils both sides of the sex-positive equation: the interview and conversational segments reflect the insights and experiences of real porn stars, but the sex scenes stand up to the very best the porn genre has ever produced. It’s really something special, and way beyond anything I could have expected. It’s a surprising, disarming and in its own way strikingly realistic — and that realism amps the eroticism to a new level…Every bit as smart and gutsy as Tristan Taormino’s previous works, House of Ass is both a thought-provoking sex fest and one of history’s hottest porn films House of Ass is nothing short of awesome.” —Eros Zine
“What above all makes this different from most gonzo is that even if the sex is far from vanilla, the women are not treated like mere fuck toys that are first paraded in front of the camera like cattle and then stuffed with cock. What it shares with early gonzo is the playfulness and sense of spontaneity that can, at least at times, bring not just heat, but warmth to the action. And that is a rare thing in porn!” —Adult DVD Talk
