Channel 1 Releasing Touts Cowboys, Firemen

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Channel 1 Releasing is reintroducing to the wholesale market a pair of Catalina Video sexpics focused on firemen and cowboys as they ramp up promo efforts for big-budget fetish flick "Taken."

"Ride 'Em Cowboy" was directed by Peter Romero and originally released in 2001. Ray Harley headlines a cast of mature, muscular and hirsute performers including Jon Galt, Matt Hunter, Wade Hunter, Mike Radcliffe, Mark Reed, Shahan, Matt Sizemore and Daniel West.
