Looking for some hardcore anal gonzo porn? The production company, Evil Angel.com, is one of the oldest names in the industry. Started in 1989 by John Stagliano, Evil Angel was able to quickly rise to prominence in an era when porn suddenly became significantly cheaper to make. In the late 1970s, pornos was still being shot on 35-millimeter film, and a single production could cost up to $350,000 to make. With the rise of VHS technology in the 1980s, porn producers could suddenly produce high-quality content for around $4,000. Stagliano started Evil Angel in 1989 to help him sell his own films. The name “Evil Angel” was apparently inspired by Stagliano’s days as a male stripper. Of the name, he says:
There was another guy in one of my shows named John.
So, this MC started calling me Evil John to determine us. This was when I was accomplishing Dracula and chains. At the same time, I had a girlfriend who called herself Angel when she did strip shows. She was a very stormy girl, and I implied that she call herself Evil Angel. She didn’t, but I appreciated the character and incorporated it into my outfit.
Evil Angel, it turns out, is also a very appropriate name, given the “nastiness” level of the content they went on to produce, and still make to this day.
Respect the Originators
It is hard to overestimate the amount of influence that Stagliano and Evil Angel had on the porn we watch today. Stagliano is credited with conceiving the idea for POV porn in 1989. Let that sink in—this is fucking huge. Evil Angel is also often cited as the first studio to pioneer the genre of gonzo porn, which was a complete accident. Primarily due to a lack of funds, much of Evil Angel’s early work featured shaky camerawork, a lack of connective narrative between scenes, and a raw, low-budget aesthetic.
This early work, however, influenced a genre of porn that is a giant in the industry today, something filmmakers actually go out of their way to emulate. In 1997, the US News and World Report named Evil Angel the single most profitable porn production studio.
In 2007, the studio was nominated for 127 Adult Video News (AVN) awards, spread over 60 different categories (this was the fourth consecutive year the studio had received over 100 nominations, mind you).
EvilAngel continues to push the envelope and innovate the art form.
One of the few big-name studios that produce transsexual content, in 2015, Evil Angel reported that such videos were their most profitable category, by a long shot, earning, on average, around 15–20% more money per movie than any other type of film they offered. It truly is hard to put a finger on just how influential and successful EvilAngel has been over the last 30 years or so. No other studio comes even close to comparison. From VHS to HTTPS All of this, of course, begs the question: how have they handled the transition into web-only content?
Well, let’s take a look at their members’ area and find out. Upon landing on the home page, the design and layout appear fairly standard: a black background, red text, numerous large thumbnails, and a central notification pennant at the shelter of the page (which, thankfully, is not advertising anything other than EvilAngel films).
One thing on the home page that already makes Evil Angel stand out from other paid membership sites I’ve been on is that, on the left-hand side of the page, you will find a directory, not of porn stars or featured actresses, as you might expect, but of featured directors.

Or an alphabetical list This should tell you a fuck load about Evil Angel as a studio and what they value—they genuinely do approach their videos as more than just recordings of hot chicks getting fucked; they look at their productions as films, through and through.
Hard Fucking Core Just looking at a few of the screenshots used for the thumbnails makes it easy to see that nasty, raw, hardcore aesthetic I mentioned earlier.
Many of the models are tattooed and alternative-looking; the scenes are set in places like city buses, back alleys, and warehouses with graffiti-covered walls. Almost every video boasts hardcore ass fucking, gaping, gagging, or double-penetration. This is some hardcore shit, for sure, definitely not for the sensitive little pricks out there.
This is some of the roughest mainstream stuff I’ve ever seen.
Evil Angel is not fucking around. Not one bit. Hardcore anal seems to be a favorite of these directors, so if you’re an anal fan, you are in luck. They also have some of the wildest orgy videos I’ve ever seen—squirting and gaping and choking and screaming and gagging and ass fucking every which way the video camera aims. This is the kind of shit you grit your teeth to while you fap, let some of your aggression out. Another thing to note about Evil Angel’s online content: they do not separate their transsexual content from their guy-on-girl and girl-on-girl videos. So, if that’s not your thing, oh well, deal with it. And if that is your thing, then rejoice— you won’t have to do any digging to find it, like you likely would on other sites. Easy to Use The website is organized really well, which is always a plus (and to be expected from the O.G. experts of pornography). At the top of the page, you’ll find a menu bar that allows you to browse the site, including pictures, videos, and more. Everything is clearly laid out, and it’s easy to find precisely what you’re looking for.
