CHATSWORTH, Calif.—Smash Pictures is entering the adult parody market with a take-off on a horror classic. Halloween XXX Porn Parody, to be directed by Jim Powers, is slated for a spooktacular October release.
The original Halloween was filmed 33 years ago and launched the character of Michael Myers into pop culture history. Smash Pictures will revisit that familiar territory with a reimagining of the iconic film. The nubile babes in danger, the voyeuristic view point of Michael, the sexual escapades of the partying young adults—all elements ripe for parody.
“We’re quite excited about this project and are going all out,” Smash Pictures Vice President Stuart Wall said. “I really believe this film will please fans of the original as well as people who want to see erotically entertaining adult movies.”
Halloween XXX Porn Parody will begin filming in the next few months with Powers at the helm. Powers, himself a fan of the original movie, plans to surprise viewers with the parody.
“I’m really going to stay true to the source material,” Powers explained. “It’s rich with sexual overtones that we could utilize. Fans of the movie are going to be thrilled to see how we take the layers of the Carpenter film and have fun with it.”
Casting for the parody’s version of the iconic roles made famous by Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasance, Nick Castle and P.J. Soles will take place next month. Smash Pictures is looking for talent to re-create the memorable scenes. Be it the sexually charged playfulness of Annie Brackett and Lynda Van Der Klok or the dominating presence of Myers, Smash Pictures wants to stay true to the feel of the original. There is also a standing invitation to any of the ’78 Halloween cast to cameo in Halloween XXX Porn Parody.
Even the Halloween XXX Porn Parody box cover design plays homage to the movie poster artwork. A set of female silhouettes form the unmistakable pumpkin shape, while Michael’s trademark knife is present in the forefront. Even the recognizable tag line is lampooned with “The Night He Came!” The DVD will come specially packaged in a eye-catching point-of-purchase display for video stores to capitalize on Halloween sales.
