Porn Valley- The story about Exorcist 4 https://www.adultfyi.com/read.aspx?ID=5332 reminds us of the literal stink bomb set off in the porn industry back in the day when AVN attempted a porn film. Conceptually, it was a scratch and sniff movie titled Smells Like Sex in which viewers were supplied cards that would produce aromas that would coincide with specific sex scenes. There was an aroma, alright, but it wasn’t coming off the card, judging by the rough cut of the movie which was a total embarrassment.
So, next time AVN shits on your movie, you might casually remind them that they hold the lone distinction of making a porno that was so bad, it had to be re-shot from beginning to end. AVN hired one of its reviewers Rollin Hand, a mainstream director, to shoot the movie, but the project- technically horrific and sexually lame- never saw the light of day. Hence, Ben Dover was flown in from England [are you mentally tallying the costs?] to helm a brand new project. The final result is the movie that stars Jenna Jameson, Juli Ashton, Shayla LaVeaux, Kylie Ireland, Nici Sterling, Marylin Star, Felecia and Lana Sands.
