Porn Valley- Give me an old guy any day to direct a porn movie. This is what I'm saying to The Pussyman, David Christopher, www.pussyman.com.
"Young guys know shit from shinenola when it comes to the head game aspects of this stuff," I'm also saying.
Christopher's agreeing wholeheartedly with these assessments.
"As you get older you get worse and think of more devious things to do," Christopher adds.
We exchange our respective views Saturday afternoon on deviancy, foot worship, face sitting and, in general, being an old fuck. Deviance is an art form best realized by years of experience with it, and Christopher's been at the game, now, for over 30 of them.
Christopher has a Masters Degree in education- he could have been a history teacher- but elected to accumulate grime under his nails in the mines of porn instead.
While going to school, Christopher was a P.A. in the mainstream to help pay some bills. But by being in New York, he also got to make the acquaintance of movie makers such as Ron Sullivan and Gerard Damiano. And, for the extra cash, Christopher took a job P.A.'ing one of Damiano's projects.
When Damiano needed another profile to be in the movie, "Portrait," he asked Christopher his thoughts on dropping trou on camera. Being 22 and a horn dog, Christopher agreed and was paired in a scene with Jody Maxwell, otherwise known as "The Cocksucker from Kansas City".
The reason Maxwell got that name is that she could suck two dicks at the same time while singing the old Patti Page tune "How Much is That Doggie in the Window?"
Christopher, used to dressed-down hippy chicks who wouldn't know Patti Page from Jimmy Page, wasn't expecting someone all dolled up.
The scene called for Christopher to get a blowjob from Maxwell who was decked out like a madam as she sat astride a toilet. Except Christopher blew his load as he came in through the bathroom door. He thought, that's it, the end of my porn career. But Damiano told him, 'kid, I'm going to give you another chance.'
"That's how it started," Christopher smiles, remembering very little else about the movie except for the fact that Jamie Gillis was also in the cast.
Some time later, Christopher went to stay with Maxwell in Kansas City.
"I think her father was a federal judge in Chicago," he says.
Christopher taught for awhile. And even though he was moonlighting as a porn actor, his students never found out about his other career. With today's Internet it would have been a different story, of course, and Christopher would have been a morning link on the Drudge Report website.
"Back then no one knew about those things," said Christopher. "Or much cared."
Christopher recalls how he'd go into an adult movie theater to watch his latest flick.
"On a screen your dick looks like it's 9 feet long," he laughs. "Then, again, I'm a guy who likes to watch."
He remembers sneaking under burlesque tents at the age of 12 in Brockton, Massachusetts so he could watch women stripping.
"That was my religion- going to strip theaters," he comments.
I asked Christopher who was his first sexual obsession, and he remembers quite well his fifth grade teacher, a Miss Mitchell.
"She had big tits and she'd make guys stay after school to punish them," he remembers. "Maybe that's where I got this."
Christopher's first girlfriend in the business was Helen Madigan. She appeared in the first picture he directed in 1983 called "Secluded Passion" which starred Kelly Nichols. Christopher also points out that he and Ron Jeremy are the first performers to direct.
Asked to describe his relationship with Madigan, Christopher calls it "Qualude heaven".
"Then it ended."
Christopher concedes that his Pussyman character more than likely stems from his early voyeuristic inclinations. [Not to mention the fact that Christopher loved John Stagliano's "Buttman" persona.]
Christopher, too, remembers always getting his rocks off watching himself on the monitor rather than staring into the face of his partner during a sex scene.
"Kind of like a second generation hard on," I suggest.
"Exactly!" laughs Christopher.
All of this is leading up to the fact that Christopher's shooting Trina Michaels in a foot fetish scene for his website. Later in the day he's got Rick Masters scheduled to work with Kylie Wilde and Leila Mason.
Although it hasn't been as well publicized, Christopher also shoots content for another site, www.deviantdavid.com which caters to the domination-degradation crowd, according to Christopher.
It's run by the company, Mean Bitches, and the site was launched March of this year.
"It's a dirty face sitting site," explains Christopher. "It's raunchier, wilder and the girls go crazy."
In one form or another Christopher's been indulging this fetish most of his porn industry life. Male-female wrestling tapes had been popular but, to him, quite passive. Christopher saw the possibilities of taking the genre in a whole different direction by using porn girls instead of female wrestlers and putting himself in the thick of things.
"I loved that stuff whereas I saw a lot of guys really not into it," he says.
Christopher approached Sam Xavier at Big Top with the idea for a series called "Smother Power," but Xavier's thinking was that this sounded more like murder in the first degree rather than a sex tape.
The series was re-named Pussy Power, and Christopher's been doing a variation of it ever since. Christopher admits that the intensity of the scenes sometimes exhausts him, and, occasionally, he suffers neck injuries from the strain put on his body.
Christopher remembers another occasion when he worked with the late Russ Meyer's girlfriend Melissa Mounds who was known to have a drink or two.
"She was smashed, but it was tremendous!" laughs Christopher, noting that a lot of these scenes were shot at a NYC studio owned by an artist named Rene.
"It was like a female pussy tribute," says Christopher describing the anatomical sculptures that graced the pedestals.
An anatomical wonder in her own right, Trina Michaels is dressed for a leisurely jog which, in essence, is the storyline. Michaels hurts her ankle, and passing by motorist Scott Lyons offers her a ride to his friend's house so he can ice down her foot.
Lyons is really good at selling the notion of how this foot massaging business is turning him into a real perv.
Michaels who's got the healthy dimensions of an Oktoberfest beer hall waitress, also gives Lyons a glimmer of her areolas. From the angle she occupies on the couch, you could swear the Virgim Mary can be seen in her left nipple. Then, again, Lorenzo Lamas appears on the right one. But this could be just tricks of the imagination and lighting.
As Michaels flips over, it's ass time. And Christopher tells her how the foot crowd gets off on the sight of spread butt cheeks together with foot bottoms.
This is coming as news to Michaels, but she goes with the program. Michaels' asshole is like a gateway into another dimension as the scene proceeds to a pop shot. The ass and foot audience is extremely well served.
Rick Masters also likes the fact that he's working in a threeway. In fact he jokes that the only way to get him out on a Saturday nowadays is by throwing two broads at him. And now that he's getting older as well, Masters prefers to work in less aggressive circumstances.
"I'd rather be Barry White," he says.
The first time Kylie Wilde worked for Christopher was in a movie called "Squirt Fever."
"She did an arcing squirt high off a kitchen cabinet," Christopher recalls. Wilde used to confine herself to girl-girl scenes, but Christopher thinks but isn't sure if it was Jules Jordan who paid her a fortune to do a boy-girl.
Masters' first time in front of a camera was for Paul Norman's In Your Face Again.
"Ron Hightower got me the job," he says. With Chi Chi LaRue directing, Masters worked with Trie Tyler and describes himself as "a scared litle guy back then."
Wilde's taking about a smoking video she did which got her sick.
"There were these nasty cigarettes and I kept throwing up," she says. Masters recalls a cigar in one scene having a similar effect on him.
"I yacked up."
Masters is also of the opinion that what happened to Brian Surewood sucks but notes that Tony Everready is, again, behind bars.
"He's a criminal but I like him," laughs Masters. "You can't take the thug out of him."
Christopher's explaining how he wants Wilde and Leila Mason to tease their way out of their short skirts and white knee socks. In the skit, Masters has picked them up at a bus stop.
"My feet are awesome," Wilde's telling Christopher. "They never smell."
Mason and Wilde then proceed to hang, literally, from the rafters in the bedroom as they take turns making monkey love to Masters with their arches.
"Thanks for not killing me," Masters says appreciatively after it's over.
Mason's telling Christopher that she went to Target and specifically bought a pair of fish nets after seeing one of his videos. Mason's also explaining how she did some softcore horror video where the victims pee themselves.
She's on the phone.
"A boyfriend?" Christopher asks her.
"Just my next weiner for the day," she laughs. "A booty call."
