Anneka Di Lorenzo Nude

Popular culture of 1979 was post-hippie, but not quite yuppie; post-disco, but not quite New Wave; and post-Star-Wars, but not quite completely infantilized by Steven Spielberg.

At local theaters (which were not quite all multiplexes—yet), Hollywood continued to present movies for adults: mature stories for grown-up people featuring adult themes, adult story lines, and that most quintessentially adult artistic flourish—nudity.

With home video still a few years in the future, grindhouses and drive-ins surged toward a crescendo, showcasing an explosion of exploitation that was also patently adult but not, to be sure, mature.

Let’s look now at some of our favorite nude scenes from 1979—eleven, in total, in honor of the rating Dudley Moore actually awards to Bo Derek in the movie 10.

No matter what happens, I’ll be glad they’re naked.

Susan Sarandon’s name has been on our lips a lot lately, what with her encouraging her buxom daughter Eva Amurri to get topless on TV.

Besides that, it’s Halloween and that always brings to mind Susan’s Sapphic sex scene with classic French beauty Catherine Deneuve in the lesbian vampire flick The Hunger, recently featured in our 10 Screamingly Sexy Horror Nudes video.

And now there’s yet another reason to contemplate Susan’s Saran-domes.

Websites are reporting that director Jessica Manafort wants to do a remake of the Susan Sarandon-Geena Davis buddy pic Thelma & Louise with The Informers babe Amber Heard and not-yet-naked Leighton Meester, star of Gossip Girl.

This could be good news for those who want to see Leighton make her nude debut.

Let’s just hope this one doesn’t go over the cliff before it gets on the road.

If You Can’t Masturbate, Decapitate!

Ah my friends, welcome back to Castle Rackula. I wasn’t expecting you this early!

You’ve caught me watching one of my old favorites, Dracula Exotica with Vanessa del Rio and my dear friend Randy West. But that actually brings me to the point of this week’s visit.

When I was a young boy in pre-Christian Mamsylvania, my friends and I used to steal the erotic etchings of Messalina getting gang-banged by the senate that the Roman soldiers carried and hide them under our straw mattresses to look at by candlelight when everyone else was asleep.

Incidentally, the real Messalina was never as hot as Anneka Di Lorenzo (AKA Marjorie Lee Thoreson) was in Caligula. But then, the real Messalina would never have sued Bob Guccione for sexual harassment.

Pornography has come a long way since the days of the Roman Empire. And today’s porn stars, while they may not have the political pull that Messalina did, do have more star power.

And sometimes they use that star power to make the jump from creamed teens to scream queens. Here are few of my favorites.

Years come, years go. So as 2007 fades into the new horizons of 2008, let's be freshly grateful, then, that flesh on film lasts forever. The past twelve months have provided a bumper crop of delectable actresses unveiling themselves on DVD.
