On The Hunt taps into the huge membership base of the hookup site Manhunt and issues this tantalizing offer: "You can become a porn superstar". That's the first twist: the site has attracted a diverse group of hot Manhunt members to perform for you. The second twist comes in the form of celebrity porn stars, who travel all over the U.S. to film the episodes. The roster includes Matthew Rush, Collin O'Neal, Jeremy Hall, Caesar, and several others. You end up with an interesting mix of horned up amateurs interacting with their pornstar videographers.

There are now over 170 episodes in On the Hunt (counting bonus videos) and more recent videos are shot with two cameras. Along with improved download speeds, the monthly membership price has been lowered to $19.95.

Tour

The On the Hunt tour primes you up with previews of 60 episodes: for some you can watch a sample clip, for others you can see eight sample photos and a description of the action. This will give you a very good idea of what the site is all about, though it's not quite a mirror tour, which would offer a glimpse of all the episodes.

Navigation

Navigation through the site is very easy, with the episode index front and center, displaying the most recent vids first. You can sort the episodes by model name or by porn star cameraman name. You can even search by keyword for specific types of guys and action.

The Men and the Action

The models at On The Hunt are chosen from Manhunt members. These guys run the gamut from muscular inked-up hunks, to collegiate guys, twinks, Latinos, African-American, Asian, a few mature guys, and even a couple of leather men. Action fans will be pleased to learn that there are very few solos on the site.

Each video is described in a couple of paragraphs on its own page. We're also told which celebrity videographer is filming the scene. The action usually unfolds in a conventional living room or bedroom, often starting with an interview of the couple or group. Up until recently the site featured only one camera shoots, which we found a bit limiting at times. The most recent vids are shot with two cameras. At the same time there is a range of sexual styles, tastes, preferences and a few fetishes on display.

Video Details

As of this review the video count on **On the Hunt is almost 170 episodes, of which 65 are bonus episodes, with one full-length and one bonus video added each week. The videos average almost 35 minutes each. Sometimes the interview sessions can ramble but you can always skip those if you wish, and the site's video style is meant to be "natural" and not heavily edited.

Video is offered in a number of formats and speeds. On each episode page you can stream the video in a 400x300 pixel in-browser Flash screen. You can also download the video in Windows Media (1,100 kbps, 770x575 window), Quicktime (600 kbps, 640x480 window) or iPod M4V format. Lower speeds are available as well; all the videos are full-length.


There are some pretty hot videos on the site; its obvious that the chance to be filmed having sex is a real turn on for some of these amateur models.

Most of the videos have good clarity, lighting, and sound quality, although a couple are a bit low on light. When it comes to overall composition, including editing, variety of poses, and the number of camera angles and medium and close-up shots, there is lots of variation due to the conditions and the skill levels of the celebrity porn star videographers. Let's just say that not all porn stars are great film makers. Variety is greatly reduced in a one camera shoot, so the recent two camera shoots are a definite improvement. The decision to leave the vids "natural" and not edit very much may take a little getting used to, so you may find yourself skipping ahead at times.

Image and Other Content

Each video page also has a small gallery of ten digital photos of about 450x600 pixels that give you a quick reference for what the scene is about. If you want to see more pictures you have to download a zip file of them. It would be good to see all the images in galleries as well as having the zip file choice.

Summing Up

On The Hunt is a fun concept, delivering true amateurs filmed by pornstars. If you're looking for some porn with a different angle, this site is definitely worth your attention.
