NakedSword Signs Hot House Entertainment

Award-winning studio returns to the leading VOD site
February 13, 2008

Hot House (http://www.hothouse.com) is returning to the familiar stomping grounds of top gay video-on-demand site NakedSword (www.NakedSword.com) increasing exposure of its award-winning titles and stars on to the consumers on NakedSword-AEBN's extensive network.

"Hot House was one of the first studios on our site, so we're thrilled to have them back on our team," said NakedSword CEO Tim Valenti. "Steven's been a friend of NakedSword's for years, even when we weren't doing business together, so this is especially rewarding."

Steven Scarborough, the visionary director and founder of Hot House, has earned tremendous accolades for his studio's productions. He has been honored as a 2002 GAYVN Hall of Fame inductee, and 2004 Grabby Awards Wall of Famer, and most was given a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2008 XBiz Awards.

"We are thrilled to be returning to NakedSword," said Scarborough. "They were, in fact, our first online partner. We have always had a great experience with NakedSword and their fans, and we think that it is a perfect partnership."

Hot House movies range from sumptuous poolside romps featuring men at the pinnacle of perfection to intense and gritty fetish films. Hot House has been one of the driving forces in gay porn since their inception in 1993. Almost 15 years later, Hot House is considered one of the industry's leading studios.

"After 21 years of making films, I think I am creating the best movies I have ever produced," Scarborough added. "Our four newest exclusive models; Dillon Crow, Johnny Gunn, Ross Hurston, and Kyle King, are tremendous additions to The Men of Hot House." NakedSword will begin releasing Hot House titles starting March 2008.

It pioneered online content delivery with the innovative Wet Palms gay porn soap opera (produced by Jet Set) and differentiates itself with original content like the award-winning Tim and Roma Show webcast and sites like GayPornBlog.com and TimandRomaBlog.com, as well as regular production of behind-the-scenes features for partner studios. In January, NakedSword debuted TheSword.com.
