We are sorry to announce that adult film star Marco Berry aka Daxx Reed passed away last week. A consummate professional, Berry was always congenial and a pleasure to work with both on set and off. He recently relocated from Los Angeles to San Francisco and will be missed by friends and fans in both cities and beyond. Our condolences go out to all those who were lucky enough to know him.  The 6’2″ tattooed sandy blond with huge doe eyes made his Hot House debut in Skuff 2: Downright Filthy and went on to appear in the Club Inferno films Fisting Network and Red Hanky.

At the turn of the century one leather-clad movie directed by Hot House Founder Steven Scarborough would start a series of groundbreaking videos entitled Skuff.  A power-bottom named Kyle McKenna delivers the performance of his career as the “guy with the FUCK HERE underwear” in the opening scene of the first installment.  Making his first Hot House appearance and awarding him a place in the early line of Hot House Exclusives is Marcus Iron who appears alongside Tristan Paris who would earn the nickname “Man Eater” from Gunnar Nielsen after he devours Jason Branch’s thick man-cock at both ends in Skuff: Downright Dirty.

It would be three years until the next long-awaited sequel is developed.  Skuff 2: Downright Filthy stars three new discoveries, Hot House Exclusives Dick Wolf, Collin O’Neal and Alex Collack. The cast includes 2003 GAYVN Performer of the Year Joe Foster, International Italian pornstar Filippo Romano, Arpad Miklos, Andy Hunter, Jacob Scott and Cody Scott in five scenes of envelope-pushing fetish action. The addition of a hardcore bonus scene, the outstanding sets and creative direction all contributed to making this blockbuster the GayVN Award winner for Best Leather Video in 2004!
