Severe Society Garners 3 AVN Awards Nominations

LOS ANGELES—Severe Society Films has received three nominations for the 2012 AVN Awards.

A trio of their biggest titles from this year, The Adventures of Evil Dia, Jimmy Gets a Footjob and the ground breaking fetish parody Strap-On Idol were honored in three separate categories. Severe Society Films has been producing high quality BDSM, fetish and kinky sex films since 2007.

These most recent AVN Award nominations have capped off their most successful year to date. Their smash hit Strap-On Idol starring Sinnamon Love, Zoey Holloway, Mistress D Severe and newcomer Slut Bottom Chris has been nominated for Best Fem-Dom Strap-On Release.Jimmy Gets a Footjob with Jessica Bangkok, Tara Lynn Foxx and Jimmy Broadway has been honored in the Best Foot/Leg Fetish Release category. Intense and unforgettable interrogation scenes helped earn The Adventures of Evil Dia featuring Dia Zerva and Tommy Toscano a nomination for Best BDSM Release (SSF’s third nomination in a row for that category).

“2011 has been so incredible for us,” saidSSF co-owner/director/editor Mistress D Severe. “The AVN Awards nominations have put a nice exclamation point on our best year ever. To be recognized along with the other top fetish studios is very gratifying, especially considering the level of the quality presented in the three categories.”

One of SSF's three AVN nominations comes for their landmark fetish parody, Strap-On Idol. With porn parodies dominating the XXX landscape, Severe Society Films took the genre where it has not dared tread before, combining mainstream crossover appeal with intense fetish action to create a smash hit.

“We used strap-on as a metaphor for what happens to most people who try to get into show biz,” saidMistress D. “It was so much fun to shoot, I’d love to do another parody soon.”

“We are very proud of Strap-On Idol and to see it nominated is a tremendous honor," said SSF co-owner/producer/director/performer Jimmy Broadway. "2011 has been an amazing year for us as a company and for the fetish industry as a whole. With fetish becoming more prevalent in mainstream society, it is thrilling to one of the companies helping people discover their kinky side."

In addition to the success of Strap-On Idol and their 3 AVN Award nominations, Severe Society Films is in the process of moving into a new 4500-square-foot shooting space in downtown L.A. The new facility will include a dungeon bedroom, a green screen room, a special "horror movie" room straight out of Saw and other amenities that will allow them to further expand their brand.

The AVN Awards will be held Jan. 21, 2012 at The Joint inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada. For more information, visit AVNAwards.com.
