Boykakke Goes Bareback
Gay Asian production company Boykakke Films has announced the upcoming release of “Raw Asian Holes.” The studio’s first non-condom feature will be distributed exclusively by All Boys Distribution.
“This film is gliding directly into what the mainstream gay consumer is looking for in a film,” All Boys president Rob Ragan said.“It’s hotter than hell, raunchier than raunchy, and shot in high def, giving it the super high quality that’s fueling today’s gay consumer,” Ragan added. “I think this film is going to shatter any other Asian title that even tries to compete with these guys. It’ll be interesting to see if this gets what will be a well deserved award nomination, as they’ve won two years standing for best gay Asian-themed site.”The new title follows on the success of Boykakke’s successful debut DVD release “Bangkok Dormitory Boys,” though the company started as an online content producer at Boykakke.com. The productions are shot primarily in Japan, Thailand and other parts of Asia.Both Boykakke CEO CJ and partner DannyZ recognize that the decision to produce bareback content is controversial.“We realize that not everyone will agree with our decision to go bareback on this new release,” CJ said. “We have had a tremendous demand for bareback content on our website, as well as from the retail sector. We decided it’s in our best interest to cater to our members’ and affiliates’ requests.”
“We respect people’s opinion on both sides of this heated issue, and will continue filming condom movies as well. The decision to film bareback on this release in no way means that we no longer care for our model’s safety,” DannyZ said.
“Prior to all shoots, we have a translator, who explains all risks to the models, and we test and sero-sort them to reduce their risk as much as possible,” DannyZ added. “We believe that it’s a person’s own choice what they wish to do with their own bodies, as long as they are consenting adults. We also include a safer sex warning at the beginning of the DVD, to ensure our product is reaching an informed audience.”
