Barely Evil, a site stock full of freaky chicks, weird hair, piercings, tattoos and all other weird things you can think of. These are your sexy, punky, bad girls taking part in gothic erotica. There are over 13,000+ images here but only a handful of videos (6+), as well as stories, games, chat and a message board for $19.95 per month. The site design is fresh and inviting, though somewhat cumbersome and there are no date stamps for the content here so there's no way of knowing how often you can expect to see what's new. Brought to you by Amelia G and Forrest Black of Blue Blood magazine, BarelyEvil.com is about creativity and a separation from the norm. The people on this site are real people "with colorful hair, tattoos, and other creative body modifications" who are admired here for being "powerfully erotic and beautiful".
So far your only way of browsing the site are by the Gallery Girls, or by their Hot Profiles (so far only 13 of the 90+ women have profiles) and, unfortunately, there is no linking to all of a models' content through her profile, which means you'll basically have to browse through all 17+ pages (18 galleries to a page) of content to find all the sets from any one girl and from what I can tell they're listed in chronological order. Looking through the archives of pages, I'm not completely sure all of the content here is exclusive either, though much of it does look to be. The other main thing that I notice is that the quality and size of the images varies greatly (something like 400x600 to 600x800 and up to 1067x800), though there aren't many galleries here that are overly large or pleasing size-wise. With that said, if you like the kind-of nude photography that takes a major step away from the norm. Freaky girls being creatively sexual and erotic. You won't find much sex here, mostly pure perversion, up-close shots and fetishes, role playing and more.
When it comes to the videos, there are only 6+ of them at hand and are offered as Windows Media files/QuickTime or as zip files. There's a little more action going on here as you'll find girl-girl licking and masturbation. They stream from 266k and up to 700k but the quality is not that much better than average. There's even a model fucking herself with a cross but I have to admit, I'd like to see this section grow quite a bit, offering longer videos and more of them before I can give much praise here either. Of course there are other things to do here as well, like associate with other members in their forums and chat, as well as read some fiction and play some games. Overall, though, what the site has as it's major draw - hot alternative girls posing for creatively designed and photographed erotic content - it also has in lacking as well - a cohesive site design that will make browsing your favorite models and fetish specific content painless and easy. I'd also like to know how often one can expect updates here, but if you like Goth chicks and all the hot things they do to themselves it might be worth checking out, I just wasn't overly impressed.

Review: 08-01-05 |
It's been almost 9 months now and it looks as though not much new has been going on at BarelyEvil.com. Updates continue to trickle in and you'll now find over 14,000+ images here, though the video selection still stands at only 6+. The site design is left unchanged but I fond a unique fondness for the bonus galleries this time around. Overall I'd still like to see larger image sizes but Barely Evil remains a good choice if you're looking for alternative content and scary chicks.
Score increased from 71.6 to 75.2.
