Rather Extreme is one of a group of fetish sites from the same company including Doctor Trickles, Double Her Trouble, Fisting King, Object Freaks, Shocking BDSM, and Strapon Angels. Actually, since they all lead to the same member's area, so it's more accurate to say they are a group of tours rather than individual sites. There is some division and categorization referencing the site titles, but the truth is they had to do it this way otherwise none of the sites would have enough content on their own.
As the site titles suggest, group sex and strap on sex are about as light as the action gets. Pissing, fisting, and insertions are more indicative of the action here. Let me give you some idea how much of each type of content there is. BDSM has 4 video sections, Bizarre 5, Fisting 14, Pissing 4, Double Penetration 2, and Strapon 2. For picture galleries BDSM has 47 galleries, Bizarre 47, Fisting 48, Pissing 47, MMF 50, and Strapon 50. For both the pictures and videos there is virtually no consistency in quality, most of it is average looking although every so often I ran across both surprisingly high and surprisingly low quality material. The one sure thing is that absolutely none of this stuff is exclusive. The videos are clips from porn movies, a good number of which look rather dated. The same goes for the pictures; clearly this stuff comes from content production companies and video captures are often passed off for pictures.
The member's area design makes it seem like there's a lot of content sections, but many link to outside leased content like ezines, feeds, and galleries. Rather Extreme does host additional galleries of Comics, Satanic, Sci-Fi, and Fetish pics along with additional videos in a section called "Full Movies" (actually one scene is counted as a movie - each is broken into 20 downloadable clips). The content sections are offered in one long list and what I didn't like is that links that lead to 3rd party content are mixed in right along with the sections hosted on Rather Extreme. Of course this is what makes it seem like there's more content then there actually is.
With their 330+ galleries and 285+ total video clips the site isn't starved for content. I'm more worried about the entertainment value rather than the quantity. I'm guessing that if you're really into fetish sites or movies then there's a good chance you'll have seen much of this content before. If I had to pick the best part of the site, it'd be the fisting section. It has the most video clips including both vaginal and anal fisting.
These guys don't pass up the opportunity to sell other fetish sites; banners for networks are posted at both the top and middle of the member's main page. At $24.95/mo and with non-original content, Rather Extreme is not among the top fetish sites out there, it's merely adequate. With the older content and multiple tours leading to the same member’s area, it seems to be stuck in the past, it’s not necessary for top of the line sites to use such techniques. Both of those issues would have to be addressed in order for the site to move nearer to the top of the list of exciting must-see fetish sites.

Rather Extreme looks to be about the same as it was during my initial review. The number of galleries and videos have increased although they not overwhelmingly. Content doesn't have dates so it's not really possible to nail down the update pace. One thing I notice is a larger number of categories, especially ones that are a bit less "extreme" like anal, bald, interracial, and housewives. I don't remember these being on the site before but I could be mistaken. My overall assessment about the site isn't any different; it has a sizeable collection of stuff to see but doesn't really put forth anything new.
Score increased from 69.8 to 70.0.
