Hot Cast

Hot Cast Review

Hot Cast is one of the 39 theaters in the Studio Presse network, and this site features original content filmed by this French label as well other French producers and content from licensed DVDs. There's a wide variety of performers here. You'll find twinks, British chavs and scallies, as well as jocks, athletes and sporty types, muscle hunks, hairy men, daddies, and muscle bears; there are White, Black, Latin, and Arab men. Most of the performers are European, so uncut cock lovers will be happy, but I saw some Americans in the mix this time around. As well, you'll also find skinheads and other fetish pigs in the mix.

The action and pairings are varied. Of the latest 12 videos, there’s one solo masturbation session, two threesomes, and the rest are duos. Most scenes feature slim and smooth guys in their early twenties, but some are a little older, more muscular, or sporting some body hair. Most of the sex is filmed in homelike settings, but there are some videos filmed outdoors, others in locker rooms, basements, store rooms, and other places. There's lot of dick sucking with some blow boys having to handle some pretty big cocks before getting their holes stretched. There are 239 solos, 126 videos with sex toys, 651 with threesomes and small groups, over 834 videos with facial cumshots, and 297 videos with intergenerational sex, so there's lot of variety. I don't see a bareback category tag in this theater, so I'm assuming most of the action is with condoms, but there's plenty of barebacking elsewhere in the network.

HotCast is a French production company, but its own videos only make up a small portion of what's on offer here - only 53 of the videos are actually produced by this studio. In total there are films from nearly 100 different studios with the biggest contributors being Raw Fuck, Menoboy, Spritzz, Phoenixxx, Berryboys, Clairprod, Raw Boys, Eurocreme, and Clairprod, and several of these also have their own theaters in the network. But there are other producers here in smaller numbers like Blake Mason, Cocky Boys, UK Naked Men, and Staxus, and their content has been licensed from DVDs.

There are two ways to enjoy the videos on the site. First, you can buy a monthly membership that gives you unlimited streaming of all 39 network theaters with over 25,000 videos. While it doesn't allow you to download any videos, it gives you the opportunity to see if there are any vids you'd like to add to your collection before buying a package of credits and redeeming five to ten of them to download available vids. You can also use credits to stream any of the vids without a membership.

There are 3,742 videos inside Hot Cast. You can watch all of the videos as streaming MP4s in an adaptive player that resizes automatically to fit your screen size including your mobiles. The newest vids come in five speeds, but the very oldest come in one speed and play at 720x578. But with such a large number of videos, expect other resolutions, as well. And because the videos come from a wide variety of studios (nearly 100 of them), you can expect all kinds of quality from average to good. I downloaded two new videos and they played at 1920x1080, but there could be smaller sizes on some of the older releases.

Many, but not all, episodes have a gallery of six to 12 screencaps that display as decent sized thumbnails. They can't be clicked to enlarge, but you can right-click and save them, and you'll end up with the pics at their full size of 1080x604 at average to good quality. There are no zip downloads, or slideshows.

Let's talk about updates. HotCast's latest six additions are dated, and these were added over the past week. Beyond that, it’s hard to talk about the update schedule, however they have added 614 videos over the past 20 months, and that averages 30 updates a month.

As I mentioned earlier, HotCast belongs to the Studio Presse network, and whether you buy a streaming membership or tickets, you can use them on the entire system of 39 theaters, and that’s five more theaters than were here 20 months ago. Most have a single theme. Raw Fuck features European twinks in bareback action with lots of cum eating and facials while Crunchboy offers 4,952 videos produced in France offering a wide variety of guys sucking and fucking. There's lots of hardcore fetish and kink from sites like Hardkinks and CazzoFilm. And several theaters are produced by solo gay porn stars like sexy twink Philipp Wants, fetish sex pig Brett Tyler, and Latin muscle daddy Viktor Rom.

Are there any issues? The videos are in a variety of languages, but only some of the non-English vids have subtitles. I have another quibble with the tour claims: while they say you get access to 27,215 videos with 120 monthly updates, these numbers refer to the entire network and not just Hot Cast. Also, movies can appear in more than one theater, so the network’s video total is exaggerated. As mentioned, be aware of is that the number of Hot Cast's own videos stands at 53 videos, and that number hasn't changed in five years, so it's safe to say that Hot Cast itself isn't producing new content, although their theater has grown a lot with content from other producers. Finally, not every video available in this network is available if you want to pay to download them, but most are.

Hot Cast features a good mix of men, primarily European, and all kinds of sex from videos produced by Hot Cast and more Studio Press studios along with some DVD content. I really liked the variety here as there are all kinds of guys from twinks to muscle hunks, scallies, Black guys and more. And if they don't have your favorite kind of men, you may very well find them in the network's 38 other theaters. There's a lot to see here with members getting access to 3,742 streaming, mobile-compatible videos as well as the run of the entire huge network.
