I been wondering -how many porn stars have made 'straight' films?
Traci Lords comes to mind first-with BLADE,TOMMYKNOCKERS,CRYBABY,and NOT OF THIS EARTH among others.
Others I thought of...
.Georigna Spelvin starred in Al Adamson's GIRLS FOR RENT aka I SPIT ON YOUR CORPSE (1974).She is most famous for the DEVIL IN MISS JONES.
. Maryilyn Chambers in Cronenbergs RABID (1977) and...the Barbra Steisand film  the OWL AND THE p***yCAT (1970)!!! two years before her claim to fame in BEYOND THE GREEN DOOR!
. Michelle Bauer-famed Scream Queen apeeared in CAFE FLESH (1982) and NIGHTDREAMS (1981) as Pia Snow.
 .I saw Ron Jeremy in CITIZEN TOXIE as the Mayor of Tromaville!
.Ginger Lynn-in many pornos-was in The DEVIL's REJECTS as Sid Haig's wet dream!And in BURIED ALIVE,among many other straight roles. She still does porn!
 .Fred Licoln-the scumbag buddy of David Hess in LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT,is a porn actor and director...who apperared in FRIDAY the 13the II as well!
 .Cameron Mitchell...well loved BAD movie actor-appeared in DIXIE RAY SUPERSTAR!( Though try to find it on IMDB...no dice!!!!)


Can you think of more...?

Well there's always Sylvester Stallone and The Party At Kitty And Stud's (1970) AKA The Italian Stallion. I am not sure if this was ever conclusively proven that the original had hard core stuff in it involving Sly though.

Ron Jeremy Played in the comedy movies ORGAZMO And DETROIT ROCK CITY And Also The Horror Movie DEATH FACTORY

Softcore Pornostar Misty mundae Played In THE RAGE And A Few Other Regular Movies

Softcore Pornostar Beverly Lynne Was In The Movie TERROR TOONS

Yer right! Iv'e never seen a HARDCRE version of it....but it EAS a softcore porno as it is.....!

I think Uschi Digart- of COUNT YORGA counts.....
she been in lotsa porn....plus the little known....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVywDD5BiWg

Jacqueline Lovell, aka Sara St. James, was originally a porn star and also appeared in HIDEOUS! (1997) and THE KILLER EYE (1999). 

I saw Ron Jeremy in BOONDOCK SAINTS when I watched it with my daughter. She asked me if I knew who that was and I had to pretend I didn't. And I didn't have the guts to ask her how she knew.

Then there was that guy Sylvester Stallone from that famous porn THE PARTY AT KITTY AND STUD'S. Didn't he make a couple of mainstream movies? ROCKO, ROCKNE, something like that?

Jeremy's IMDB page (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000465/) is hilarious. They've carefully listed every porn movie he's ever been in.

I've heard Cheerleader Massacre has a few porn stars in.

THE ICE CREAM MAN was one director's only non-porn film :P

And vice-versa, Stephen Geoffereys went from FRIGHT NIGHT AND 967-EVIL to almost exclusively stuff like "Latin Crotch Rockets" >.> . On the same side, Paul Norman, one of the original VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED children went on to have a long-running career in the business (One of the few "damned" to have any long-running career ._. )

"The Ronster" (Ron Jeremy) has been in quite a few films, including the aforementioned Toxic Avenger and Boondock Saints. He was in a movie made by the South Park guys called "Orgasmo", and a bunch of other Troma films (Terror Firmer, Tromeo and Juliet, one of the Nuke'em High movies, Poultrygiest).

Steven Soderbergh's latest movie, THE GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE, stars Sasha Grey as a Washington D.C. call girl.  Some of Miss Grey's former credits: I WANNA BANG YOUR SISTER, MY EVIL SLUTS 3, and HAIRY MOVIE (?).

I saw that girl from Star 80 on Buck Rogers the other night

Star 80 aint a porno ( (Dorthy Stratton)...not hardcore,anyway...and I dont think she did porn.....or Mariel Hemingway. I could be wrong-of course.

Gay porn star Jeff Stryker in Zombie 4 After Death. 

Remember Evil Ed from Fright Night? http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0313267/bio

Child actor Scott Schwartz (Flick in A CHRISTMAS STORY, Eric in THE TOY) made several porno flicks in the 1990s.

 

RC merchant-  well, she was in playboy

I forgot about that one, , , it did wonders for his career. .

Do "unauhorized" sex tapes count?  Then we can add Pam Anderson, Paris Hilton, Screech, etc...

Rumor has it a young Chuck "The Rifleman" Connors appeared in several 1940s all-male porno films.

Simon Rex (the guy from SCARY MOVIE 3) Did Gay Porno Movies For A While

Stephen Geoffreys (evil ed from FRIGHT NIGHT) Also Did Gay Porno Movies .......And I Think He Still Does


Cameron Diaz (Before Becoming Famous And Before Her Nosejob) Did A Homemade porno movie

Porno Star Marey Carey Was In The Horror/comedy movie PERVERT

Porno Star Jenna Jameson Was In The Horror Movie EVIL BREED......A Lot Of Other Porno Stars Were Also In It

Ursula Reit, the actress who played Augustus Gloop's mother in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory starred in several German porn films...after Wonka.  :buggedout:

From "Lunch Meat", we get Kim McKamy (also in "Dreamaniac" and "Creepozoids"), who went on to do a number of hardcore porn films under the name Ashlyn Gere.

Sylvia Kristel did a few porns, most notably "Emmanuelle"  she also did alot of nonporn too.

Film actor Aldo Ray appeared in the porn film "Sweet Savage."

I've heard that Dwight Frye appeared in several porn films, including one in which he spies on a group of female nudists playing volleyball But I can't find any titles to back that one up.

And while he may not have made any porn films, Ed Wood, jr. wrote several porn novels during his life.

Uschi Digart-most famous for her Russ Meyer films,also did porn. She was also a vampire chick in the RETURN of COUNT YORGA.
...and wotta babe!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrSdS7EXCzc

Tom DeSimone-who directed HELL NIGHT,REFORM SCHOOL GIRLS (the Wendy O Williams version),and the bizzare soft core CHATTERBOX did lotsa gay porn in his time!

Not Sure If Anyone Wants To Know This But

When Stephen Geoffreys Made Gay Porno Movies He Was Under The False Name "Sam Ritter"

There was that chick...in that movie...
Okay, sorry, but I can't remeber it's title. It was about a special squad who were sent to exterminate some kind of tentacle-horror from the deep, which has killed a bunch of scientist. And then, this busty blonde shows up, and takes off her clothes.

 :buggedout:  :thumbup:

Perchance do you mean The Thing Below (http://cosmic-cinema.blogspot.com/2009/06/thing-below.html)?

 :cheers:

Yes!
Thank you. Nice review. :cheers:

Oh, yeah. Her name was Glori-Anne Gilbert, and besides The thing below and Komondo vs Cobra, she was also in The lust connection, House on hooter hill, and many, many more.

I Heard That The So Called "master of horror" Wes Craven Actually Started Out Making X Rated Movies In The 70'S


Also Danny Steinman (the director of FRIDAY THE 13TH Part 5) Made A Lot Of Pornographic films

Wes Craven didn't make porno, he only appeared in like 3 of them.  His first film was The last house on the left (according to IMDB).
And please, don't depreciate him. He gave us Nighmare on Elm st., afterall.

And Danny Steinman only made one. (Again, according to IMDB)

I dunno about Steinman himself, but it's worth noting that MANY MANY MANY porn movies don't appear on the IMDB.  So I hear anyway.    :twirl:

Surprisingly enough, Ron Jeremy also was a star on the Disney Productions show "Bone Chillers", starring as the villain Blisterface.

But the makeup was done in a way that he was unrecognizable, so that anti-porn groups didn't know it was him.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Traci Lords.  She was in tons of hardcore and softcore porn before going Hollywood. 

She also had roles in the video games Wing Commander III: The Heart of the Tiger, and Wing Commander Prophecy.

I think Dale Jacoby who played Dean Ramsey in No Retreat No Surrender went on to direct many porn films in his day.

Joe D'Amato didn't star in porn, but he eventually directed it after starting out as a Euro-shock director (directing such turds as Anthropophagus and The Killing Birds).  I even heard he was better at porn than Italian horror.

Joe Dallesandro made several gay porn films, moved on to Warhol films, and now gets bit parts here and there in regular films.

This thread seems to have gotten off track a bit. Which is fine by me as I now get to share my vast and finite cinematic trivial, er, trivia knowledge.  Starting with the fact that Joe D'Amato, like many of his contemporaries, actually did "adult" movies during their heyday.  Remember there was a very narrow window of time during the 70s when porn was chic.  THis means that a lot of softcore movies were released with alternate version containing hardcore inserts.

During this period Joe D'Amato made a number of softcore features like Papaya: Love Goddess of the Cannibals, Emanuelle in America, and Caligula, the Untold Story; Alfonso Brescia made a number of sex farces including and Beast in Space, Poppea: A Prostitute in Service of the Emperor, and Helen, Yes... Helen of Troy.

Many of these films features actresses who did, or went on to star/appear in, hardcore features. Actresses like Marina Lotar, Sirpa Lane, Laura Gemser, et al.

Which begs the question: What did the OP mean by "porno stars"?

Are we talking strictly U.S. actors appearing in hardcore XXX movies like the aforementioned Ron Jeremy & Traci Lords?  And, for that matter, what does the OP mean by "gone straight"?  Does the OP mean stopped making adult movies and transitioned into mainstream fare?

I ask because someone has already cited Sylvia Crystal and "Emmanuelle" as porn, which it is not.  There is nothing explicit about that movie.  But if we're going to embrace that as porn then it opens up the entire genre of erotica and softcore latenight T&A crap, a lot of which actually does star porn stars.

I think you'll find most of the better known "names" have had cameos on TV series and movies.  The two biggest ones that come to mind are Vanesa del Rio, who appeared in an episode of NYPD Blue as herself and, of course, Angelique Pettyjohn*, who appeared in
the ST:TOS episode Gamesters of Triskelion.

(*) Though I forget if she did her porn movies before or after appearing in Star Trek.

Oh, hell. Don't remind me.

Does Asia Carrera in The Big Lebowski count?

Or, for that matter, what about Kobe Tai's appearance in Very Bad Things.

I did-in the first post of this thread. I actially seen her do porn-in NEW WAVE HOOKERS. All copies of that film have her scenes deleted.

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT -- WHAT?

How the heck did I miss her?

She does have ONE legal XXX film on the market, Traci I Love You, made AFTER she turned 18. But it ain't easy to come by.

To split hairs...I make a distinction etween porn actors who leave the jiggly stuff to olny make movies.  For example Traci Lords or old Sly.  Folks like Ron Jeremy Are still Ron Jeremy Porn Star, no matter if they are dressed or not.  It his identity. 

Um, did that make sense at all?
-Ed

God, how did I miss that?

The same way I posted about Uschi Digart twice-in my own thread!  :buggedout:

The woman from the film District B13, billed as Dany Verissimo, was a hardcore porn actress. According to her Wikipedia she now does French softcore, which I imagine is like a European Cinemax.

If we started listing Cinemax actresses I think we would see a lot more crossover between porn and "respectable" cinema.

During my post about Deathstalker 2, I found out Monique Gabrielle has been in a ton of 80's sleaze pictures... not hardcore porn, but skin-flicks none the less.

Asia Carrera was in "The Big Lebowski".

Sasha Grey in "The Girlfriend Experience"

Jaimee Foxworth (Judy Winslow) from "Family Matters" did porn under the name Crave.

...I found this list (thanks google) if anyone's interested:
http://listing-index.ebay.com/actors/List_of_porn_stars_who_appeared_in_mainstream_films.html (http://listing-index.ebay.com/actors/List_of_porn_stars_who_appeared_in_mainstream_films.html)

Another bit of trivia: IIRC, there's only one legal Traci Lords porn film now, one shot on her 18th birthday.  Rumor goes she herself reported that she was underage to eliminate her past history, since she was trying to go more straight.

A "mainstream" actor you may all have some knowledge of:

Spalding Grey

He's most famous for his monologue movies like "Swimming to Cambodia" and many others. Died in 2004.

I was surprised to see him in a hard-core movie called "The Farmer's Daughters" (1976).


A favorite hard-core actress of mine is Devon Shire.
I was surprised to see her in a wimpy (soft-core) flick on Showtime or HBO one night.

I used to have, like, 7 or 8 porn that featured Traci Lords when she was around 16 years old.
Tragically, I have since lost that collection...

So wait, you owned pornography with underage actresses depicted in sexual situations??

...that's pretty weak dude.  :thumbdown:

Well, remember that there was a time when everyone believed she was over 18, and the thousands of people who had bought her tapes before the revelation weren't criminals or deviants.  Now, as far as characterizing the loss of those tapes as tragic, you're on your own there, Bix; the best we could say is it was a poor choice of words.

I agree-I owned-way back when-a number of Traci Lords pornos.Way before she fessed up that she was under age. She did it-people bought them.They are out there. Get over it-it ain't kiddy porn-she did it to herself. She wasn't exploited.She exploited herself.

Kristine DeBell was in the X-rated musical version of Alice in Wonderland, then went on to many small TV and movie parts, most prominently in "Meatballs" with Bill Murray.

  You exhibit sh*t-poor logic.... By your logic; "statutory rape" is justified if the uner-age girl is "willing".... Do you really believe that?
  Just because an adolescent willingly exposes and exploits themself doesn't condone you perpetuating that act. They are the child and YOU are the adult, making you the responsible party. I don't give a flying-F*CK who said it was OK or what menial justifications you have for owning child pornography; you still owned that material and therefore perpetuated the act.
  It's pretty sad that you, as a grown man, can't see how incredibly f*cked-up that situation really is. And not only that, you somehow try to justify it.
:thumbdown: :thumbdown:
       
 

Gee-when she did porn-and when I saw it way back when-no one KNEW she was underage. Including her employers. I wouldn't watch them now. No one talked her into it. She did it on her own. Do I feel sorry for her? NO. She made tons of cash-made a name for herself-and is now a movie star. Traci Lords did it because she wanted to. I don't advocate undrage porn-Traci Lords did-for herself. It was crazy.-BUT-It's a fact-she did it-get over it.

Oh-I haven't seen a Traci Lords porno loooong before she fessed up-when I saw it-I that it was legal.And I would NOT EVER buy child porno-DAM! She f**ked over everyone into thinking she was legal. Not just the buyers.
 Can I dismiss her actions because of her age? NO. Can you dismiss the Columbine Killers because of their age??? Teens are not as naive as you would like to believe.

Traci Lords came from a fairly s**t situation, that's fact, BUT, she was by no means an idiot. Even though she was under the legal age to make movies, she knew what she was doing, and made a heap of cash, and caused others to LOSE heaps of cash. Nobody thought she was underage, and what people fail to remember is that at the time there were OTHER stars being investigated in regards to their age, others that were OLDER than her, and of clearly legal age. Traci just slipped under the radar in every way, partially because there were stars out there that looked quite a bit younger.

The point some people are missing, is that people that saw Traci when she was underage, weren't TRYING to see an underage person, they were trying to see ADULTS. I think RC's Columbine reference is spot on.

To boot, I think it's a bit strange that in this country, a 16-year old can consent to having sex, but not be filmed nude? I am by no means condoning kids being pictured or filmed nude, but just pointing out the rather odd situation it presents.

And before anyone comes back with "pictures and film can haunt a person for the rest of their life", well sex leads to something that haunts you even worse, albeit only for 18 years or so: KIDS, not to mention herpes/aids, etc.

   Odd comparison, but it simply solidifies my point that teenagers are fickle and stupid, often not accounting for the very near future. The problem isn't that you unknowingly viewed the material, the problem arises when you defend a man who regrettably lost his copies of legitimate child-pornography. Just because it was produced and published doesn't make it justified or right. 
   There are a multitude of tragedies that can be avoided if adults and parents would start fulfilling their roles.

You know, you just need to get off your high horse. You made your point in regards to where you stand, but you're doing your damnedest to twist and turn this into your own crusade. You dinged Bix without giving one bit of a chance for him to re-iterate or re-word what he said, and if you read the comment that YOU left in doing so, you can see even YOU don't get the point. He admitted to OWNING something that at one time MANY people did, and had no reason to believe it was wrong. He never said he owned it after it was banned, but please, don't let facts get in the way of your crusade. You jump on RC for 'defending' someone for doing something that at the time nobody knew was illegal, that's quite out of line.

What speaks volumes is the fact that you've given out 3 points of karma, and one of those is negative. I DARE you to find anyone as negative on this board.

I wasn't agreeing that his losing his tapes was a bummer-I was agreeing with the Rev theat he used a 'poor choice of words." I'm no wordsmith either. 'Specially when I'm drunk-(which is often.)

 Really? "Crusade"? So being appalled at the celebration of adolescent perversion and voicing an opinion on the subject (in a forum I might add) is now considered a "crusade"?  Maybe you should re-read the previous posts and educate yourself on the situation BEFORE interjecting.
 Also, RCMerchant was doing a fine job discussing his points before you buffaloed your way in and convoluted the discussion. You're the equivalent of static on an otherwise entertaining radio-station. RCMerchant didn't request a mediator for this debate, nor does he need one. Why not let the gentleman handle himself?
 

...Don't mistake passion for ire. I think everyone in this forum are pretty neat people. Hell, I wish I had 1/2 the film knowledge that RCMerchant has and ghouck, you look like a one-legged panda f*cked you in the ear canal using your hair as handlebars, thats gotta be admired, right? Just don't expect to say anything you desire and not have it contested. Only spineless liars blow smoke...

drinks all around! :cheers:

The reason I called it a 'crusade', is that you're picking and choosing facts and ignoring others. You're complaining about someone stating that they owned her movies when THEY WERE NOT BANNED AND NOBODY KNEW SHE WAS UNDERAGE. You don't speak anything of their intentions. We get it, we KNOW she was underage, we know those movies are NOW banned, and accordingly, people have GOTTEN RID OF THEM, and not because the law said we had to, but because it WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. If you're going to condemn a person for having owned a video of Traci when the entire world believed she was of legal age, well then that speaks volumes of your character. Yet, you accuse ME of needing to re-read? Read your first complaint, please.

As for my piping in, the point was that you're being insulting, and you just needed to know that RC wasn't the only one that didn't care for it. As for me having a say, then perhaps you should have gone to PM or Email if you don't want what you say to be commented on. I find humor in the fact that you complain about me commenting on your post, then finish off with "Just don't expect to say anything you desire and not have it contested." Perhaps the taking of your own advice is warranted.

You refer to me as "the equivalent of static on an otherwise entertaining radio-station". Funny, this was a fun and entertaining thread until YOU got here.

I'll not comment on the juvenile attempts at insult.

I like boobs.

I like legs.

I like boobs....


AND legs!

Now I just feel shallow. You put the rest of us to shame, Jim.

I like legs AND boobs. .

I like BIG boobs...and BIG ass!  :twirl:

I like BIGGER boobs!!!

RC, this is one of those times where I regret that you've disabled the karma function.  So let this suffice:  :cheers:

After some unpleasantness, this thread has taken a turn for the better.

I like bigger boobs than RC, but smaller boobs than Ghouk.

I like bigger boobs than Rev. Powell, and depending on Ghouck's stance on J-cups...

Not a huge fan of big boobs per se,they're ok once on a while, I'm more of a vagina and anus man. Oh s**t, scratch that, I just thought of Jennifer Connelly's ta-tas. :drink:

Good to see you're above it all. (F*cking hypocrite)  :wink:

She does have a near perfect pair, doesn't she.

Boob, butt, legs, liver... Whatever makes a nice curve is good to me.   :wink:

Lets make this clear, get the flame insults under control.  They are not tolerated on this board.  If not, you'll be up for a ban soon. 

Just the one boob, Joe ?

I kinda like two.
Just seems a bit weird with one in the middle.

The film "The Warrior and the Sorceress" spoiled me sooooo much. 

Jut one boob is OK if it's in the middle of her back. That way you can cop a feel while slow dancing. . .

Like I said, whatever makes a curve, be it one boob, two, or six.

Not that I'm into mutants or cats or anything...

Familiar at all with Fuko?

Just curious. Since the subject of big boobage came up.

WHICH, I'd like to add, is a subject VERY near and dear to my heart.

Personally, I'm a fan of boobs of all sizes.

Oh yes.  Let's just say I've spent some cold, lonely nights with Fuko...mmmmm....

T.M.I.



Since this forum is starting to get off-topic, has anyone mentioned Veronica Hart? I'm not sure, but I don't think so. She's been in a couple "legit" pictures, including Bloodsucking Pharaohs In Pittsburgh.

And BOOGIE NIGHTS.  A lot of porno stars got small roles in that one, including Nina Hartley.

so you don't like this?


(one for every hand and one for the mouth  :bouncegiggle: )
