Bait & switch generic porn for Peter North's gay following
lor_22 February 2011
Tedious in the extreme, EUROMEN is a crudely made paste-up-job, with Peter North in his gay blade "Matt Ramsey" persona, as the host for a collection of loops lensed in Europe. Loops are on film and North's wraparound footage on video for this disappointing package.

Gimmick is that supposedly Ramsey (North) traveled to Germany, Portugal, Italy and Austria and photographed willing gay performers having sex on location. It's dull, uneventful sex acts by unattractive guys who look like they were recruited off the street, not professional performers. The closest thing to novelty is a dungeon setting for leather boys, but even that sequence is a bore.

North is his smoothie self, directly addressing the viewer as he lolls by a pool, changes outfits or plays with himself. The patient viewer gets a final 10-minute reel of North, finally overcome with pent-up horniness, jacking himself off for the predictable fountains of cum shot on a full-length mirror. It's the old Pavlovian device, for the audience to follow suit.

North does not participate in any of the sex scenes, except for pleasuring himself. And it seems highly unlikely that he shot the footage credited to him -it just looks like loops by the pound acquired for this product.

Video proclaims a follow-up with North/Ramsey traveling to Brazil, which hopefully was never released. Given the superstar's ongoing popularity nearly three decades after his start, this desultory video is an extreme letdown.
