The Brown Bunny (2003)

A Lesbian Nude Scene!

America was still reeling from the news that the enormously popular ever-optimistic, dog-loving, Portia de Rossi-laying talk-show guru Ellen DeGeneres was officially named as the fourth judge on American Idol when Mr Skin got on the radio and really started blowing some minds.

Despite Ellen’s enormous popularity across the major demographics, surprisingly few people outside the skin-savvy readership of this blog knew that they could see their beloved Ellen DeGeneres nude in a movie from 2000.

Unsurprisingly, given the fact that Ellen is a lady-lover in real life, the scene is in the steamy made-for-cable lesbian drama If These Walls Could Talk 2 and features some good looks at Ellen’s melons as she lives out every gay girl’s fantasy—sticking her face between the naked knockers of Sharon Stone.

This makes Ellen the first Idol judge ever to have done a nude scene, much less a nude lesbian sex scene, which really puts the pressure on Kara DioGuardi to doff her top and start making out with Bikini Girl.

What Comes After Nudity?

When a recent interviewer thanked Academy Award-winning actress and Mr Skin Hall-of-Famer Marisa Tomei for continuing to get naked on screen in The Wrestler, the Brooklyn beauty gave the credit to legendary director Sidney Lumet for getting her to show skin.

There’s no denying the magnificence of Marisa’s mams in the 2007 drama Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, but she actually got topless 14 years earlier in Untamed Heart.

The scene is less well known, though, because you can only see it on the special European television broadcast version or on MrSkin.com.

Stick around the Internet for the next little while and, I promise you, some unconscionable cliché-spewer will assault your computer screen with a phrase he’ll want you to believe he just came up with himself:

“Two words: Nazi. Zombies.”

Please note the period after each of these two words. It wouldn't be Internet Douchespeak without them.

Motivating this tripe is hype for an official Tool-Approved Sundance Take on the Topic. Don’t fall for it. Fall in love, instead, with Shock Waves and Bloodsucking Nazi Zombies. All over again.

Better still, support new horror efforts on the order of Gutterballs and Blood and Sex Nightmaer, where the hair that gets raised -- amazingly, on-camera -- is pubic. Other times, the naked vaginas on up-close display are bald.

Come swallow the whole mess after the jump.

Porn Stars Go From the Main Vein to Mainstream

Citing examples like Sasha Grey, Jenna Jameson, Traci Lords, Katie Morgan, and the upcoming stage musical based on the life of Linda Lovelace, yesterday’s LA Times declared that “porn stars are the new crossover artists.”

This does not include porn stars Mila, who is an ass artist, or Charlie, who appears in The Pickup Artist.

The widely reported recent death of Deep Throat director Gerard Damiano reminded the world of the time in the early 1970s, when porn chic brought hardcore to millions of viewers who would have never braved a porno theater before.

A few years later, home video would do a much better job of it.

Now that adult actresses like Sasha Grey and Katie Morgan are appearing in the new Steven Soderbergh film The Girlfriend Experience and Zack and Miri Make a Porno, respectively, the topic of porn in the mainstream is hot again.

In 2003, freaky New York City multitalent Vincent Gallo scandalized the Cannes Film Festival with the premiere of his three-hour-plus cut of The Brown Bunny.

Audiences jeered and stormed out, proclaiming the tale of Gallo’s heartsick anti-hero maddeningly boring -- despite of the fact that it climaxes (literally) with co-star Chloë Sevigny performing graphic lick-suck-and-swallow oral sex the movie's mastermind ... up-close, for real, and in a manner no other mainstream Hollywood actress has ever dared before or since.

Roger Ebert’s called it the worst film he’d ever endured at the fest. Gallo responded by “hexing” the beloved critic with colon cancer. However, Gallo also took the hoots to heart and released an edited version of the Brown Bunny -- which Ebert came to champion -- on this date in 2004.

Get a mouthful of Chloë after the jump.

Amateur Porn Star Killer or APSK (Picture: 1 - 2) for short—is the latest deep-impact outrage from maverick-with-a-movie-camera Shane Ryan and his micro-budget powerhouse studio Alter Ego Cinema. Brutal, unflinching, and bombastically explicit, Amateur Porn Star Killer is a mock-documentary that recreates videotapes made by a psycho who preys on would-be sex starlets.
