Few studs have stormed the gay erotica scene with the same fanfare as muscle hunk Zeb Atlas. As great as Zeb looked in still photography, watching him in live action is amazing. Like his namesake, Zeb's broad, sculptured back indeed looks strong enough to support the weight of the world. The taper of those muscles to his perfect, shapely hindquarters evokes images of classical art that was meant to represent the gods.
In "Zeb Unzipped: Part 1," Zeb's chiseled, buff physique is shaved down (sorry, fur lovers), so that every ridge, bulge and curve stands out. Zeb speaks directly to the camera as the flick opens, after striding toward the lens in an outdoor setting, wearing only a pair of very tight, very short cut-offs (with white boxer briefs peeking out from the legs) and black boots. Zeb's outdoor flexing session is a nice preamble to the rest of the production. It isn't very long, but it is certainly enough to make me want more, and Zeb definitely delivers big time in the scenes that follow.
In the next scene, Zeb walks into a bedroom wearing a tight, white T-shirt and skintight black pants. Zeb teasingly addresses the lens, promising that he has a lot to show off, which, I'm sorry, Zeb, is completely obvious. He gradually unveils his perfect, V-shaped torso in slow and erotic movement, and his biceps and triceps bulge as he reaches down to stroke his thick quads. The camera is artfully angled slightly below Zeb's knees, giving him a Colossus-like appearance. Then, the pants come off. Zeb's bountiful, rounded, and smooth-as-silk ass is shot in close-up. Before the scene is over, Zeb displays his unbelievably perfect ass cleft by bending over for the lens. His thick, long cock is also very much a star of the scene, and Zeb gently strokes it to full erection as he also caresses his body. Zeb is not one of those muscle studs whose dick looks like it's out of proportion with the rest of his body (although you have to wonder how huge it would look if Zeb wasn't a bodybuilder).
In the next scene, Zeb enters wearing the cut-offs he had on in the opener, minus those annoying boxer briefs. It doesn't matter anyway, because he strips out of them immediately and reclines on a sofa, his tree-trunk thighs spread wide apart, and his dick hard as a rock. Zeb's strokes vary from fast to slow and easy, and he soon reaches a climax that leaves globs of white stuff on his crotch. Zeb continues to slowly stroke out his load as the scene fades.
A short posing session follows, with Zeb in front of a bright yellow wall wearing white briefs, pulled low on his hips, and a white tank. The scene switches to a bathroom with Zeb poured into the cut-offs again. This time, there is much material for lovers of muscles in denim, as Zeb shows off his thighs, his butt (the middle seam of the cut-offs teasingly disappears in Zeb's deep ass cleft), and the bulge at the crotch of the shorts. Faded-out denim has never looked so good. A full-length mirror provides extra titillation as a naked Zeb poses before it, once again giving us an all-too-brief glance deep between his asscheeks as he bends over. Most of the scene focuses on Zeb posing, flexing, and once again stroking his hardon, and the entire scene is completely enthralling.
Next, a shower scene proves that Zeb's muscles also look delicious when wet (and the water that runs down his body, over his ridged abs and off the tip of his half-hard cock, looks thirst-quenching). In this scene, Zeb's handsome face grabs attention, not easy to do with a body like his, but as the stud licks the water away from his thick, full lips, I had to wonder what else they would look great licking.
The grand finale to this sexy muscle worship session is a long scene of Zeb in bed masturbating. Sleepy-eyed, his tan, buff body a perfect contrast to the white bed sheets, and his huge dick raring to go, Zeb puts on a memorable show. Watching Zeb pleasure himself is completely thrilling, but then I would probably be happy to watch him read the newspaper. The scene includes both close-ups and long-shots of Zeb's muscles, but my favorite shot is from above, as Zeb jerks his cock while he fingers one of his nipples. For the finale, Zeb stands and leans against the bed headboard and the camera is between his thick quads as he reaches another orgasm, a gusher that explodes as he jerks his meat hard.
Zeb is a handsome man and this is a great production that is worthy of his charms, one of Dynamite's best releases ever.
