Audience Rating: X (Mature Audiences Only)Binding: DVD EAN: 0612385423291 Format: NTSC Label: After Hours Cinema Languages: Manufacturer: After Hours Cinema Number Of Items: 2 Publisher: After Hours Cinema Region Code: 1 Release Date: September 04, 2007 Running Time: 240 minutes Studio: After Hours Cinema Editorial Review: Product Description: Joe Sarno has written and directed over 75 feature films in the sexploitation and soft-core subgenres as well as several films in the hard-core genre. Sarno's work is unique in offering unusual characters, taboo-probing situations and relationships, and psychologically compelling stories, as well as opportunities for his actors to contribute genuine performances. It might not be inappropriate to refer to 1973 through 1974 as Joe Sarno s shtick period. While Sarno s filmmaking sensibility is generally perceived to be intensely serious, during this brief two-year span he wrote and directed three features with clear comic intent (Deep Throat Part 2, A Touch of Genie, The Switch), all of which, since that time, have fallen more or less into obscurity. What do you get when you mix madcap Jewish humor with the Superstars of Seventies adult cinema? A Touch of Genie is director Joe Sarno s outrageous long-lost tribute to a boyhood spent at raucous Lower East Side comedies (and an adulthood spent writing and directing some of the finest adult films to ever grace a grindhouse screen). Poor Melvin! His meddling mother is making him nutz. His only relief is the covert afternoons he spends at New York s notorious Times Square porn theaters. One day, Melvin discovers a genie in a bottle. What does he wish? To become his favorite adult superstars and indulge in wild sexual adventures with the sexiest women of the silver screen. Starring Doug Stone as Melvin Finkelfarb and Ultramax the First Lady of New York Porn! as his yiddishe mama. Also featuring over-the-top performances by grindhouse greats Harry Reems, Tina Russell, and Eric Edwards. After Hours Cinema presents A Touch of Genie restored from a newly found film element.

Consider the 2nd DVD a bonus disc and you won't be disappointed. The featured movie -- A TOUCH OF GENIE -- is seen in a remarkably clear and colourful transfer from an original 16mm print (there is an informative booklet in the package) You will be amazed to see an old and obscure XXX rarity shine onscreen with such clarity and colour. The movie is a case of New York ... Read More |
