Does anyone remember the Old Reliable set of videos that came out in the '80s? The company was the brainchild of David Hurles, who basically picked up street hustlers and filmed them jerking off. These guys were about as rough as you could get, with many (most?) of them being ex-cons and junkies. I was fascinated by these films, as they were like nothing else at the time. They were about as far away from Falcon and Colt as you could get.

Since most of the OR models would do ANYTHING for money, many drifted over to regular porn flicks. However, the studios that would employ these ex-con, tattooed junkies were of the ultra-low budget variety. Over the years, I've searched for any porn films featuring the OR men, but haven't had much luck beyond Filmco Studios, run by Hal Roth. Does anyone know of any other studios that used these dangerous (but hot!) models?

Supposedly, David Hurles was beaten up and ripped off by several of the models he used. Also, even though the videos were all j/o scenes, he had a special set of vids he saved for special clients called "In Private", where he had sex with the models. I have a few of these, and they are hot.

The OR models I have seen in "mainstream porn" were Tico Patterson, Brian Diaz, Eddie Perez, Champ and Rocky Rome. But I know there are many others who did porn. The OR guys I would love to see in action were Butch Gaylord, Scott Ruffing, Mark Gillis and Mark Kovarik.

Yep I sure love the videos too.
David Hurles & Joe Gage are among the "finest there is" when it comes to that !
They really bring out that "Straight boy" theme.
Thanks for the comments above... which I was unaware of.... and for the links of the recent galleries.

johnlatreen, Waters must be right up my alley. In addition to David Hurles, another of his role models was Bobby Garcia, who filmed all those straight Marines, LONG before Active Duty and Military Classified.
Yeah! Straight Marines that had no trouble fucking Bobby's ass!

Sweethorses, I think Greg Rome did straight porn, and Tico Patterson did some bisexual films. Ironically, mostly all of the other straight guys from OR did exclusively gay porn.

Yeah, what a fantastic era that was! I was fascinated by that genre and loved AMG STUDIOS and OLD RELIABLE very much. I was
soooo hot with a deep crush on the Adams Brothers, Phil Shumaker and Mark Kovarik. A friend of mine who is a flight attendant always brought old magazines which he found in a vintage bookstore in San Francisco (my favourite one where I bought porn stuff for many hundreds of dollars) and even provided OR films which I couldn't get here in Germany. I was thrilled!

The vintage stuff was real, honest. No glamour. Just pure facts. And the models looked like men from the street or guys next door. That was the whole success strategy. That's why I am still a big fan of vintage gay porn and dream of those days which fulfilled our desires
royally. May the good old times live forever!

If you truly are Mark Kovarik, this is indeed an honor! I was a big fan of yours back in the day, and have several tapes (VHS, remember them?) with you in them. I know you were also in several spanking films for different studios , but did you ever do actual porn? Also, any info on some of the models who worked at Old Reliable or AMG around the time you did?
