High Quality Fetish Films Now Available to Stockroom Wholesale and Distributor Customers

LOS ANGELES — (November 23, 2009) – Stockroom, Inc., the world’s leading manufacturer and marketer of fetish gear and clothing, has concluded a new master distribution deal with GwenMedia, the adult production company famed for its authentic, high quality girl-girl fetish films.  Stockroom will also become the master distributor for Isabella Sinclaire’s Ivy Manor Videos unit.

Both production houses are headed by Ms. Sinclaire, the elegantly beautiful professional dominatrix and fetish model who also stars in the productions of both companies.  Each presents a different perspective on her life and work:  Ivy Manor Videos feature Sinclaire in session with submissive men in her renowned Ivy Manor dungeon; GwenMedia productions have in-depth story lines that place Sinclaire’s established persona in a lush fantasy setting surrounded by gorgeous women dressed in sumptuous fetish couture including elaborate latex and corsetry.

“GwenMedia films have a long-standing track record of excellence.  They are a perfect fit for the Stockroom because both companies are known as innovative pioneers and are well-established in their fields. The brands have strong recognition value to fetish and BDSM players and the high production values of GwenMedia films meets our company’s rigorous aesthetic standards,” says Stockroom president Mike Herman.

Stockroom will sell GwenMedia and Ivy Manor videos wholesale directly to stores and to distributors as part of its program to provide wholesale clients with a comprehensive array of fetish products. As an introductory special new and existing Wholesale and Distributor clients will receive 10% off their first order of these products.

“GwenMedia and Ivy Manor films are unequalled in the fetish genre and we are thrilled to supply these proven favorites to our wholesale and distributor clientele so they can better serve their fetish customers,” says Layla Ross, Stockroom’s wholesale manager. “The level of devotion the fetish audience has for GwenMedia is remarkable, in part because of the authenticity of these productions.  We’re already getting phone calls from halfway around the world from retailers eager to begin stocking these products.”

Ms. Ross believes the GwenMedia films feel genuine because “the stunning women who star in them are BDSM players in their real lives and their love and lust for what they do is clearly evident in every scene.” She said the Ivy Manor series features top fetish lifestyle personalities and players from around the world like Swiss fetish film star Anastasia Pierce; bondage model and porn actress Jewell Marceau; and Dallas domme and fetish model Athena Fatale.

The complete selection of both GwenMedia and Ivy Manor Videos titles is now available (http://wholesale.stockroom.com/category/sex_enhancers/videos/) exclusively through Stockroom’s wholesale program.  For more information or to place an order, contact Ms. Ross at 212-484-3889 or wholesale@stockroom.com.

In the current issue of AVN, The Portal 2 is ranked at #32 in their top 75 specialty DVDs. Here’s a recent review by an independent critic, Josh Haney:

“Latex, in the hands of most adult fare, means that the actress is wearing rubber thigh highs or possibly being painted with liquid latex.  While this is fine and good for the normal triple x crowd, for those of us with a darker side, this is a tease, scratch that, a cop out.  Now, if you pick up a DVD case, see the words HEAVY RUBBER and notice that in most of the pictures the participants are encased, head to toe, in that sensuous material, you are in for something far different from the vanilla antics of performers playing at these types of scenes.  This being said, The Portal 2: Latex Pets In Training is hardcore fetish action for avid enthusiasts and a stunning example of actual techniques for newly initiated devotees.
While out driving with his girlfriend, an argument sends a man tumbling into the world of Ivy Manor, a place few have ever been privileged enough to see, full of pleasures of the flesh and intoxicants of the mind.  Trapped in a cage, encased in latex, he watches as two of Mistress Isabella’s submissive playthings pleasure each other before his eyes.  We are treated to all sorts of debauchery, from bondage and crops to things better left seen than said here in mixed company.  And after they’re finished with each other, it’s his turn to feel the cruel hand of the Mistress, tortured until he cannot stand any more, at which point being released back into his pathetic little life.
As I stated above this is NOT pornography playing at the BDSM scene, where the female leads get playfully swatted at before having sex with a guy in a leather vest (come on, we’ve all seen this tripe).  Instead, these are the kind of scenes one would expect to find at a high-class establishment that specialized in real training for a well paying clientele, the kind of places you read about but never truly expect to find.
As with all of Gwen Media’s releases, production values are excellent.  Crisp and clean images with multiple camera angles allowing you full view of the proceedings (no shot on video garbage here) with close-ups that make you feel as if you’re there.  The costumes, toys and gear are all top notch, a dungeon environment any aspiring Master or Mistress would be envious of.  This goes to show how a company can corner the market if it focuses on what it knows and does that with style and intelligence.  Isabella Sinclaire is known throughout the community as a talent to be reckoned with, and The Portal 2 emphasizes this point perfectly.  This is quality erotica that would please even the Marquis de Sade, bless his filthy little soul.
If your looking for fetish entertainment, don’t bother with films that promise a lot and leave you feeling gypped, enter the world of Ivy Manor, you’ll be thankful you did.”

Thanks, Josh! Glad you liked the film. The Portal 2 – Latex Pets in Training is available now on DVD at the GwenMedia.com store.

GwenMedia will be the special guests tomorrow evening, January 27th, on Playboy Radio’s Night Calls, Channel 99 on Sirius, 6pm PST.  Join Isabella Sinclaire, John Fitzgerald and Mz Berlin, along with hosts Christy Canyon and Vanessa Blue as we talk about all that is GwenMedia, promote our newest DVD, Captive, our involvement with Club HELL this Wednesday, and take your calls.

“Seeing 3 nominations for AVN Awards this year is validation for all of the efforts by everyone on the GwenMedia team, and highlights the works of our very talented pool of writers and producers,” says Isabella Sinclaire. “We’re excited about the recognition from the industry and are look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas this January!”
