Chatsworth, Ca- He’s one of the fastest rising gonzo directors in porn history. His name sparks controversy every time he’s brought up. His work is nothing short of spectacular to watch. And now Barrett Blade is officially off the market.
Mayhem announced earlier today that they’d signed the incendiary new auteur to an exclusive one-year-agreement which calls for Blade to a direct a predetermined number of titles for Mayhem and leaves open the possibility of additional projects for Sin City as well. At present Blade is currently in the development stages of two new lines he guarantees will redefine the genre altogether.
“I wanted to show another side to my work that focused on hardcore,” explains the punky-haired former rock star. “I think a lot of people are going to be shocked by the intensity of what I put out. I’ve been planning this one for a while and I can’t wait to see it happen. Get ready to have the wind knocked out of you, that’s all I can say!”
Sin City Entertainment General Manager Scott Justice offered the contract to Blade after viewing footage from his debut title.
“I was really impressed by his first show. We gave Barrett a chance and he did not disappoint me at all. He came through with flying colors. I feel that Barrett’s creativity, camera work, direction and distinct style is exactly what we needed for the Mayhem line right now.”
Being in the spotlight is nothing new for male stud turned rising hardcore porn director Barrett Blade. A natural performer, Barrett Blade spent years being pelted by the cunt drenched panties of pretty young sluts as an aspiring rock star playing bass for Dial 7at local L.A. area clubs, before signing with Warner Brothers and opening for acts like Foo Fighters, Incubus, Run DMC, System of a Down and No Doubt. Dial 7 was the stairway to pussy heaven until his world collided with a stunning siren of porn, which led him full tilt into the next natural evolution of his career as one of the most sought after male performers in the adult business. Reliability, acting skills, and a natural boyish charm propelled him to the top overnight and earlier this year at the AVN awards show he took home two awards; one for best actor and the other for best three-way.
But behind his work as a cock-for-hire lurked a dark and obsessive secret that few truly understood. Barrett, for all of his light hearted tomfoolery, had been learning to shoot camera, learning to edit his own movies, learning to take stills, and plotting for the day when his chance would come to step behind the camera and run the show.
Barrett felt that the contract with Mayhem was the next logical step in his career.
“With a diversified background in editing, performing and directing I felt confident that I was ready to advance to the next level of film making which ideally included a directing contract with a vastly successful company.”
The controversial, highly anticipated debut of Barrett Blade’s first title for Mayhem, Smokin’ Crack, hits the streets 10-5-05. His second release P.O.V. Multiples releases 11-2-05.
