Evil Angel review

The Evil Angel Studio will be well known to even casual porn buyers and is likely to be among any serious porn collector’s top studios. Evil Angel has been around since 1989 and continues to be among the most popular, prolific, and relevant studios operating today. Personally, I started collecting Evil Angel titles back when they began in 1989. I would buy or rent any VHS tape put out by them. When Evil Angel started its website, I was a subscriber. I’ve been a regular Evil Angel subscriber for many years, often maintaining a recurring subscription, but even when I don’t have a recurring subscription, I’ll still join multiple times each year.

Prior to 1989, the well-known director (and sometimes talent), John Stagliano, had been directing movies for other studios. In 1989, he created Evil Angel using a new business model unknown in porn at the time, and still rarely used today. Instead of claiming ownership of titles created by other directors, Stagliano’s Evil Angel provided marketing and distribution while allowing the director to retain ownership and royalties. As such, even though I’ll continue to label Evil Angel as a studio, it’s really a venue for multiple independent directors to distribute their movies and scenes. I’m confident in saying that, in part at least, the Evil Angel business model, is responsible for almost every award-winning adult director over the past 30 years to be affiliated with them at one time or another.

The list of directors who have been affiliated with Evil Angel over the past 34 years reads like a Who’s Who of top directors. Directors such as Stagliano himself, Joey Silvera, John Leslie, Gregory Dark, Jules Jordan, Belladonna, Manuel Ferrara, Rocco Siffredi, Proxy Paige, Francesca Le, Mark Wood, Erik Everhard, Jay Sin, Mike Adriano, Lexington Steele, and Aiden Star have either been affiliated with Evil Angel or continue to be affiliated with them today. As anyone with a passing knowledge of porn will recognize, the list of directors here, which is nowhere near complete, includes some of the top award-winning directors in the business.

As a reader may also notice, the directors affiliated with Evil Angel, while all having their own unique styles, do have something in common – most of what they create falls into the gonzo category and is also known for having a harder-edge than much of the competition. Even from the beginning, Evil Angel was a go-to studio for fans of anal sex and anal play. This should come as no surprise considering that John Stagliano’s porn persona was and remains “Buttman”, and includes many classic and current movies of his around that theme. It’s natural that other anal-themed directors would find a warm welcome at Evil Angel.

As anally focused as Evil Angel can be, there is certainly enough other themes to keep viewers without that interest satisfied as well. However, any potential subscriber who has no interest in anal-themed porn should probably reconsider a potential subscription here.

Because Evil Angel has been around since 1989, they offer an extensive back catalogue of older classic titles. For younger porn viewers who don’t remember 1989, and for those of us who do, having access to this back catalogue not only gives us the ability to see some excellent porn from that era, but it has historical value as well. While VHS tapes radically changed the adult industry beginning in the early 1980s, the style of movies available weren’t appreciably different from what had been playing in adult theatres for decades prior. These movies were essentially features with plots and character development that happened have a few hardcore sex scenes thrown in. When directors like John Stagliano and Joey Silvera created and perfected a new style of porn called “gonzo,” it completely revolutionized the adult industry. Creating porn movies that had no plot but were only focused on beautiful models having hot sex, and involving the viewer through the camera lens, was the perfect way to take full advantage of the earlier VHS revolution which allowed a viewer to watch these movies in the privacy of his or her own home.

What Evil Angel offers today is a huge site consisting of over 3000 movie titles and over 17,000 individual scenes. With numbers like these, it will be difficult for me to justify writing that Evil Angel puts quality ahead of quantity, because the quantity is so large. But, reader, I ask for your trust when I say that over the past 34 years that Evil Angel has been in existence, it has consistently provided some of the hottest and best-produced and directed hardcore content available. It would take far too long to list the rewards that Evil Angel titles have won over the years, but there have been many. This recognition by others within the adult industry attests to the quality that Evil Angel has always been known for and continues to provide.

All the qualities and traits that Evil Angel has been known for over the past 34 years continues with the new movies and scenes its affiliated directors continue to produce and make available here.

Staking out any commonality among movies and scenes on a site that gives complete creative freedom to some of the best directors in the adult industry at any given time over the past 34 years and currently might seem like a daunting task, but it isn’t. It’s actually quite easy. As I stated above, anal sex and anal play run through well over 75% of the material here. However, it’s also fair to say that any scenes at Evil Angel feature both female and male porn models having wild and fun sex. Whether you’re watching a traditional B/G scene, a G/G scene, a threesome, a gangbang, an orgy, everyone is having a great time. There are wet butts, ass worship, DP, deep throating, sloppy blowjobs, rough sex, and all that kind of stuff.

There’s a bit of a caveat for fans of G/G porn. Maybe this is just my perception, but G/G porn tends to lean more to the soft, sensual side of the spectrum. However, this isn’t the case here at Evil Angel with the G/G scenes here. Directors such as Jay Sin and Proxy Paige, for example, are well known for producing anal-themed lesbian movies with extreme insertions and the models thoroughly enjoying themselves.

While G/G porn has been part of the industry since the beginning, I give full marks to Evil Angel for recognizing the value of including other genres as well. More recently, Evil Angel has been offering some of the best transgender porn available on the Internet, featuring some of the best models working today. Currently, there are almost 300 transgender movie titles available here. That translates to approximately 1200 trans scenes. Unusual in the industry is the fact that Evil Angel also features some bisexual-themed movies. There are currently 28 bisex movies with 70 bisex scenes in total.

I’ll comment more specifically on the ease in which a subscriber can sort movies and scenes, but for now, I’ll mention that it is easy for a subscriber to sort for his or her preferences at a high level to include or exclude straight, lesbian, transgender or bisexual scenes. If all you are looking for are transgender scenes, it’s very easy to sort for only those. With that same ease, a member can easily switch to viewing only straight porn.

Evil Angel adds at least one new scene each day, sometimes two. A potential subscriber should note, however, that these updates are across the network so if you are waiting for a new scene in a particular movie title, it may not be uploaded for several weeks. The good news is that when Evil Angel puts a movie title up, it lists the scenes whether they are available currently or not, and if they are not available, they will post the release date.

With such a large collection of movies and scenes, it’s also difficult to provide specific information on the models who appear here. However, all the models here do have one thing in common, regardless of whether they were active in the industry in the 1990s or today: all of them were or are among the best known, most awarded, and popular models in the business. Just as with the directors with movies and scenes here, the model list is a Who’s Who of top stars from 1989 until the present. It should be no surprise that over 4000 stars have scenes available here. Just a few examples: Francesca Le, Bobbi Starr, Sheena Shaw, London Keyes, Roxy Raye, Chastity Lynn, Phoenix Marie, Adriana Chechik, Remy Lacroix, Dakota Skye, Bobbi Starr, Sheena Shaw, Valentina Nappi, Misha Cross, Jynx Maze, Chanel Preston, Ashley Addams, Bonnie Rotten, Cherry Kiss, Abella Danger, and Gia Derza.

Given that the stable of directors affiliated with Evil Angel come from around the world, while most of the models are American, there is a good mix of models from Europe, Russia and elsewhere.

Evil Angel offers memberships with both streaming and downloads, though any prospective member who is interested in streaming only can get a lower subscription price. While many sites these days do offer tiered memberships depending on whether the subscriber wants downloads, many sites also hide this fact from prospective subscribers. I give full marks to Evil Angel for being clear and transparent about the different membership options available for joining. No subscriber will be left guessing what he or she is paying for. I wish all sites would adopt such a transparent business model.

If you subscribe with a membership that gives you both downloads and streaming, you’ll find lots of options available for both. If your membership is streaming only, you will also have lots of options. I’ve listed the available resolutions in the Videos section. This probably goes without saying, but the older the title, there will be fewer and lower resolutions available. This is to be expected, since even 1080p is a relatively recent development.

For people who prefer 4K resolution, scenes offering this begin appearing in 2016-2017, though 4K scenes are few and sporadic at that time. By 2020, 4K scenes are being offered with most uploads. For people who like 4K, there is a lot available here at Evil Angel.

I’ve always viewed Evil Angel as a movie studio and not as a photo studio. I don’t think I will find a lot of contrary opinions. Movies and videos are at the heart of Evil Angel, but they do offer a wide assortment of photos for those who collect them. There are currently over 10,000 photo sets available, with many of these being associated with a specific scene. Currently, the primary photo resolution available is 1920x1280, though a reader should understand that resolutions will be lower as the photo sets go back in history to 1989. While the average number of photos available per set varies widely, it’s fair to say that 50 photos per set is a good estimate.

While not entirely relevant when writing about Evil Angel, it’s worth noting that the site has been part of the Gamma Entertainment family of adult sites for many years. Gamma Entertainment is among the largest owners and distributors of porn sites. While I don’t see any downsides to having Evil Angel as part of the Gamma family, it is certainly a significant upside that Evil Angel uses the standard Gamma site design. Evil Angel is such a large site covering 34 years of porn that without a logical and easy to use site with many sorting options, finding what you like could be difficult. But that isn’t the case here. The Evil Angel site is exceptionally easy to use. The site has multiple ways to sort through its large collection. Apart from being able to sort by preferences, videos, movies, stars, etc., the site uses tags and has a highly effective search function. If a subscriber is looking for something obscure and it’s available at Evil Angel, he or she will easily find it.

As with all Gamma sites, download and streaming speeds at Evil Angel are among the best available. Every time I join a Gamma site – and I currently have a membership at Evil Angel – I’m impressed at download speeds. Obviously, your own Internet connection will play a key role in your own experience.

As I stated above, I’ve been a member at Evil Angel frequently over the past 20 years and I’ve had many other subscriptions to sites in the Gamma family and I’ve never encountered any throttling or reached a download limit. In theory there is a download limit of 200GB per day, but that’s very generous and hard to reach.

With years of experience subscribing to Evil Angel, I’m well-placed to also tell you about its flaws. If you are a photo collector, you might be dissatisfied with the 1920px photo resolution they provide. These good looking images would look even better at a real HQ resolution. However, as someone who prefers videos, this is no big deal to me. Even acknowledging my own potential biases (Evil Angel is in my Top Five list of favourite porn sites), I have nothing negative to report. If you like this style of porn, then you’ll like what Evil Angel has to offer and you’ll appreciate the ease in which you can sort and find what you like.

I’ll comment on this, though I don’t see it as a negative. Some of the porn here is not exclusive. For example, the prolific male talent and director, Mick Blue, has hundreds of titles available at Evil Angel but these are also available at his own stand-alone site, BAM Visions. Likewise, the director Bryan Gozzling, known for his Hookup Hotshot site, also has many titles available here. These are simply repackaged scenes from his stand-alone site. Your preferences may be different from mine, but with Hookup Hotshot, I prefer to maintain my subscription to the stand-alone site rather than download those scenes from Evil Angel. Because Evil Angel still distributes movies on physical DVD media, some of the content of the Hookup Hotshot scenes may be edited out for the Evil Angel release. On the other hand, I prefer to access the BAM Vision scenes at Evil Angel, rather than getting them from Mick Blue’s BAM Visions site. The reason is entirely subjective – the scenes at the stand-alone site have much higher bitrates than offered at Evil Angel and the file sizes are much larger. I’m perfectly happy with the slightly reduced picture quality that a lower bitrate brings as a trade-off for using less disk space. These are the two primary mainstream studios that have their stand-alone sites and I only mention this because some readers may have questions about the differences between accessing the scenes at those sites versus at Evil Angel.

Fans of Mike Adriano, one of the best-known directors over the past 20 years and still working today, will find many of his older titles available here. Prior to leaving Evil Angel to go with Perv City for a while before becoming independent, Mike was one of the signature directors here. For fans of Mike’s work, these older titles are a must have.

By now, it will be no surprise to any reader that not only am I recommending Evil Angel, but I’m highly recommending it. Some readers may question my high scoring, but I hope that after reading this review that you will understand I’ve justified all those high scores. I appreciate everything that Evil Angel offers me as a subscriber. I have access to an extensive back catalogue of some of the best porn over the past 34 years and daily new scenes are added that meet the high Evil Angel standards. These movies and scenes are directed by and star the best talent in the industry. Whether you are looking for porn from 1990 or 2023, you won’t find better anywhere else. On top of the scenes themselves being among the best available, the site is logical and easy to use on all devices.

Joining is easy and a prospective member will appreciate the transparency in choosing the membership level that best suits their needs. All Gamma sites bill through proprietary Gamma billers, and I have subscribed to Gamma sites hundreds of times over the years. I’ve had precisely zero problems with their billers, you can join with confidence. Perhaps the best evidence I can give for recommending Evil Angel is that I’ve spent my own money many, many times subscribing and re-subscribing to this site, and I can’t see that changing any time in the future. I’m confident in saying that Evil Angel is among the best values for your porn dollars today. If you use our link to join, you’ll get a great x3guide discount too.
