The final Harry Potter flick hits theaters, and Mr. Skin knows where to find Kelly MacDonald magically naked. On DVD, Sasha Grey gets bushy…
We interview a lot of interesting people here on the Mr. Skin blog, but few of them can say their work is as important as Joe Rubin's.
Joe basically came out of the womb an exploitation fanatic and has been amassing an impressive private collection of vintage exploitation and erotic cinema since he was a teenager. Now he's also launched a digital restoration company, Process Blue, that specializes in rescuing exploitation and X-rated films from obscurity and giving these long-neglected artifacts the respect that they deserve. Joe says that often when he contacts directors about restoring their films, they are shocked and touched to realize (often for the first time) that their work is remembered and appreciated as art. That's something that Process Blue is trying to change.
Process Blue is getting off to an auspicious start by participating in the excellent restorations of Radley Metzger's "Henry Paris" films in partnership with DistribPix and with the very exciting project they're working on now: a Kickstarter campaign to restore three previously "lost" films by exploitation legend Herschell Gordon Lewis.
We talked to Joe at his home base just around the corner from the Mr. Skin offices, where he told us about his massive collection, his work with Process Blue, and the unmatchable elegance of Kelly Nichols.

John Harrison is the pied piper of sleaze. A passionate advocate of all things weird and wild, John is a collector and expert on a number of sordid subjects including comic books, amusement parks, horror movies, true crime, stag films (Anal Dwarf is one of his prize possessions), and vintage paperback novels.

Hip Pocket Sleaze is not only an entertaining and insightful overview of the pulp paperback and its many interesting incarnations- lesbian pulp, Nazisploitation, sexploitation, hippiesploitation, and more- but also a handy how-to guide on how to get some of these lurid, lusty and oddly fascinating vintage books into your grubby little hands.
A freelance writer based in Melbourne, Australia, John has written for scads of print and online publications (including the Mr Skin blog!), is currently working on a new book, Rene Bond: America's Tragic Teenage Fantasy.

This week Mr. Skin and Synapse Films released the Women in Prison Triple Feature DVD, featuring three wet n’ wild women in prison flicks: Chained Heat (1983), Red Heat (1985), and Jungle Warriors (1984).
With this nude DVD release, WIP fans can skinjoy all the skincarcerated T&A in much better quality, as the video transfer on all three films is noticeably improved from previous releases. Fans will also be slappy to hear that Chained Heat is presented in its skintirety for the first time since its theatrical run- a scene where Linda Blair is raped by John Vernon (aka Dean Wormer from Animal House) is restored for the first time on VHS or DVD. The Women in Prison Triple Feature also comes loaded with trailers, interviews with stars Stella Stevens and Sybil Danning, and video introductions by our own Mr. Skin, who rubs down the key skingredients to each film.
