Does anyone remember the porn studio Old Reliable? It was a California-based operation founded by young hustler David Hurles. Hurles recruited the dregs of society to be filmed stripping , wrestling and jerking-off. No Falcon-type models here...he used mostly ex-cons, street hustlers, druggies, homeless, pretty much anybody who needed a few bucks. He started with a few models from the old Athletic Model Guild, and once in a while would use a semi-big name from porn like Tico Patterson or Barry Hoffman, but usually it was someone you would never turn your back on. Hurles himself was beaten up and robbed by his models several times. Near the end of his OR years, he got caught up in the drug lifestyle of his models and lost most of what he had. Later, he had a massive stroke and was in a hospice. I don't know if he is still with us today.
Old Reliable was unlike any porn I had ever seen in my life....raw and dangerous, but SO exciting. Anyone else have memories of this studio?
