Sex On 42ND Street Grindhouse Collection
Obscure 70s Cinema!This installment of After Hours Cinema's Storefront feature series presents a three-fer of Big Apple sleaze guaranteed to give you a hard-on the size of Donald Trump's ego. So get ready to be transported back to the days when the Rotten Apple was the capitol of the cum-shot and when 42nd Street was a veritable theme park of pushers, prostitutes, and peepshows.Pen Pals is an early honey-humper by the great Shaun Costello, without a doubt the most significant (and probably the most prolific) cineaste of the entire New York school. Costello's films generally exhibit the hip, urban, jaundiced sensibility of Paul Morrissey's Warhol fare: willfully anti-artistic, they radiate an engaging cynicism that somehow reinvigorates them as cinema.Certified Mail is a pure product of Kirtfilm Studios, the "Gower Gulch" of New York sleaze. Certified Mail's rather episodic and thinly unified plot concerns a mail lady who wanders into various sexual misadventures while making her rounds.Rounding out the program is Love-In Maid, which must be just about the ugliest porno ever committed to film. Mid-Seventies raunch regular Bobby Astyr and another unnamed Svengali advertise for domestic help in the hopes of finding a built-in orgy partner.
