Digital Playground's "Deadly Vows," directed by Ricky Greenwood, has premiered, offering a blend of eroticism and action. The series features sword fights and betrayals, with star Ryan Reid discussing her training and on-set challenges for the role of Sarah.

"Deadly Vows" Blends Action and Eroticism

"Deadly Vows," the latest feature from director Ricky Greenwood, premiered on Digital Playground. The series is described as delivering more than high-gloss eroticism, unveiling a full-throttle action spectacle. Key elements of the series include sword fights and betrayals.

The main character in "Deadly Vows" is characterized by a combination of martial artistry, reminiscent of Jackie Chan, and a thirst for vengeance, drawing comparisons to the Bride, Uma Thurman’s assassin character in "Kill Bill."

The final episode of "Deadly Vows" is scheduled to drop on Monday. Ryan Reid, who plays the character Sarah, spoke with XBIZ about her preparation for the series. Her discussion covered the intense training she underwent, the challenges encountered on set, and a "first" she is unveiling in the finale.

Ryan Reid's Preparation and Role as Sarah

For Ryan Reid, the production of "Deadly Vows" involved extensive preparation. This included months of prep work and a crash course in fight choreography. Reid also faced the challenge of maintaining "villain energy" throughout long days that involved both stunts and sex scenes.

Reid commented on the nature of the shoot, stating, "It’s not like your average porn at all." She added that it "felt very mainstream" and described the experience as "fucking insane." She recounted being approached in January with the proposal to shoot a movie in the summer, with training scheduled to begin in April. Reid's initial reaction was to question the need for training in the context of adult film production, asking, "What do you mean training? Who trains for porn?"

The narrative of "Deadly Vows" is described as "pure pulp mayhem with a twist." Reid's character, Sarah, is betrayed and left for dead by her sister, Ellen (played by Elly Clutch), and an ex-lover, Ricky Johnson. Sarah is then brought back from the brink by a mysterious martial arts mentor. This mentor teaches her how to fight, survive, and transform her rage into a weapon.

During her journey, Sarah forms alliances with Christie (Yhivi) and Smoke (Scott Nails). These alliances are forged as she prepares to confront Ellen’s "crew of merciless enforcers." The climax of the story, referred to as "the reckoning," takes place on Ellen’s wedding day. This event features bullets, blades, insults, and fists in an all-out confrontation.

Other performers mentioned in connection with "Deadly Vows 1" include Destiny Mira and Scarlett Alexis.
