Cover man Duncan is the title character in Mr. Footlong's Encounter, which the box claims is "The very first black gay feature." He's the only black man in the film, which is series of episodes about amorous boyfriends and their neighbors. The editing and the poor sound make the story difficult to follow. One scene will start, then change to another, then another, then return to the first.
    The realistic sex appears to be spontaneous more than staged or directed. The film is grainy, and the lighting and camera work are typical of the period, which means that the film is shot and directed more like a theatrical film than like porn films of today, where penetration shots are so critical. There are a few impressive cum shots, however.
    Blacklode is a solo video about guys who donate sperm to a doctor researching male impotence and sterility. The all-black models are astonishingly muscular and gorgeous. Keith Lancaster, the doctor, and Romero Davis, his helper, leaflet the neighborhood and guys show up to "make a donation." Each of then gets a skinny test tube, which provides for a number of subsequent sight gags as they try to figure out whether to try to cum directly in the tube or cum elsewhere then try to transfer their load to the test tube.
    Florenzo Blackwell, a hardhat construction worker and the first donee, has an extended pissing scene before his j/o. Carliss Sharpe, a stunningly handsome and muscular youth, is jerking off in his back yard when he gets interrupted by Romero. Carliss finishes his solo at the doctor's office.
    Bradley delivers a package of sex toys the doctor ordered to help his volunteers enjoy their task. After inventorying the package, Bradley selects a vacuum tube to assist with his donation, under the doctor's watchful eye.
    Al Short is a lanky rollerblader who uses a dildo during his solo and Odis Campbell is a trained dancer. Very butch Romero also makes a donation after he comes back from posting his flyers, and doctor Keith fills the last remaining test tube with his own jism.
    There's good variety of age, body type and occupation among the models. If you like solo videos and you like well-made porn with black models, Blacklode will not disappoint you.
