Euro-trash films tend to be too artsy for my tastes.
"Creative" lighting usually means you can't see what the fuck is going on.
"Creative" camera angles and long shots fuck it up as well.

The primary purpose of porn is to see fucking. Anything that detracts from that is counter productive no matter how "artistic" the image looks.

I can't stand most of the stuff I've seen coming out of Italy and Spain. France is kind of hit or miss but all the girls there seems to prefer anal over anything else.
I have seen some really good gonzo and wall-to-wall stuff coming out of Eastern Europe and the post-soviet girls from Russia are highly wackable.
