CANOGA PARK, Calif.—Axel Braun's decades-in-the-making The Possession of Mrs. Hyde—which took home the 2019 AVN Awards for Best Action/Thriller, Best Screenplay and Movie of the Year, among other honors—is now available for the first time on DVD from Wicked Pictures.
The two-disc collector’s edition booklet-style set also includes 10 bonus sex scenes, following in the footsteps of Braun’s other 2019 awards sweeper Deadpool XXX: An Axel Braun Parody, which collected four AVN trophies, including Best Parody and Best Actor for Seth Gamble’s uncanny portrayal of the title character.
Braun's first original feature in 15 years, The Possession of Mrs. Hyde was written by Braun in collaboration with his late father, Golden Age maestro Lasse Braun, and his son, adult director Rikki Braun, and also claimed this year's AVN Award for Best Boy/Girl Sex Scene, for the sweltering limo encounter between lead actress Avi Love & Roman Nomar.
"When you pour your heart into a project and give it your all, it becomes a very gratifying experience, regardless of its success,” Braun said. “Making this movie was an absolute joy, and all the accolades it received are the icing on the cake. I was lucky enough to have two extraordinary lead actors, Avi Love and Seth Gamble, and together with our incredible cast and crew we were able to take a journey that I will forever remember as the best filmmaking experience of my career."
On top of its stupendous awards haul, The Possession of Mrs. Hyde is earning Braun some of the most effusive praise of his career. In AVN's newly-posted AAAAA review, critic Iris Blocks wrote, "Adult movies are reliably arousing. ... But it's a rare porn flick that qualifies as haunting. And that emotional effect helps set this moody thriller apart—along with its black-and-white cinematography and stylish soundtrack."
