Black is our second edition of the Adam Black Video Directory and we're satisfied that we set the standard for excellence in reporting in this rapidly growing medium.
Where we tried to give to the most in depth look at the best videos and profiles
of the top, all-time black performers with extensive credits, this time we're
doing things differently. We are shifting the focus to more of the new product
and porn stars who are creating a black wave like we have never before seen in
the history of adult video.
The Performers Directory includes profiles of the current major performers and
their best credits. We have focused on more than 50 full bios of stars, concentrating
on current favorites, leaving out those who haven't worked in the past year or
so.
There are all new full reviews of 100 top adult movies in the main Reviews section,
plus more than 500 encapsulated reviews of older and highly rated movies we have
reviewed in the past years in The Best of The Rest section.
In the Awards section, we pick the Top 25 movies of all time as well as the Top
20 series. We also mention prize-winning movies and performers, and Hall of Fame
films and members are identified.
The movies have been picked for a number of reasons, the obvious one being they
are, in our opinion, excellent examples of erotic entertainment. Others have been
included for their historical significance, and many for a variety of special
features they contain. Many older titles, lower rated movies and features out
of circulation have been eliminated.
The emphasis of this Directory is on feature movies in the black and interracial
genre for their general appeal as well as the erotic factor. Of course, the movies
differ in degree of effectiveness, so our ratings guide is based on two essential
elements.
Eroticism is graded as Warm, Hot, or Volcanic. A movie that be highly rated for
technical and professional reasons may still receive a Warm rating. On the other
hand, a picture that is not very good for technical reasons may be Volcanic in
its sexual intensity and delivery. We hope that singling out both aspects of a
production will help you shape your erotic viewing choices.
The following legend is a brief breakdown of our star ratings:
***** A time-tested classic that no collector should be without. As of this date,
no black and interracial titles have earned that honor, though we're still hoping.
**** An excellent picture, combining good production with superbly crafted sex.
*** A very good, highly entertaining product.
** An otherwise good erotic movie that has several major flaws.
* Not a very good show, but it may have some appeal because of subject matter.
The Source Directory is a full listing of companies by the products or services
they provide. This section will greatly help those interested in building their
own movie libraries as well as finding a local and/or reliable source for erotic
entertainment. The most complete, legitimate and widely respected directory of
this nature ever published, as well as the only one, the Adam Black Video Directory
is designed to give you full access to the ever-expanding black and interracial
adult movie industry.
