Many people are familiar with the story of Bob Chinn without being aware of the fact due to Burt Reynolds’s Oscar-nominated performance as Jack Horner in Boogie Nights, as the character was loosely based on Chinn. Chinn began making adult movies in the early 1970s and retired in the late 1980s, only to return for a brief period in the late 1990s and early 2000s. He is best known for the Johnny Wadd films he made with the legendary performer John Holmes. In the enormously popular series, Holmes portrays a private detective who solves crimes in between servicing women with his mighty meat sword. On September 23, 2008, VCX released the original Johnny Wadd, taken from a pristine print, for the first time on DVD. Recently Mr. Chinn took some time out to discuss his movies and life with Mr Skin’s C.G. Hilliard.

Porn purists may have scoffed but, like it or not, filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson’s Boogie Nights is Hollywood’s definitive statement of the shadow industry of X-rated cinema throughout the 1970s and early ’80s. It opened in theaters to great critical acclaim on this date in 1997.

Boogie Nights flashily chronicles the rise-and-more-rises of Dirk Diggler (Mark Wahlberg), a naturally gifted cocksman (loosely inspired by legendary loin-wielder John Holmes) who makes it big (and often) in the jizz-biz during the waning days of theatrically-released sex films, just on the cusp of home video.

Burt Reynolds portrays a disco-riffic hardcore director, while Heather Graham and Julianne Moore are indisputably awesome as the frequently naked female talent.

She may have started as an object of desire for the Coreys in License to Drive, but Heather Graham developed into an oft-naked beauty anyone would love to take for a spin. Heather spent her early twenties keeping her horseshoes under her blouse in Drugstore Cowboy and Even Cowgirls Get the Blues and not letting us peek her own mountains on Twin Peaks, but then came Boogie Nights (as well as all of Heather’s fans). Heather gave everything she’s got as Rollergirl before rolling on to less nude pastures. Heather only dropped her duds once between 1997 and 2006, but she made it count with her best appearance yet in Killing Me Softly in 2002. In the nude millennium, Heather was more free with her golden Grahams, with bare turns in Broken, Adrift in Manhattan, and Miss Conception. Enjoy the video tribute to all of Heather’s hottest moments after the cut, and for full reviews, pics, and clips, upgrade to Mr. Skin Premium. more…

Johnny Wadd, the first in a series of movies mixing sex and violence that star the famously well-endowed Holmes as a hardboiled detective named Johnny Wadd, has never been released officially on VHS or DVD, but a well-preserved print recently discovered in a storage locker has made an official release possible.

Since her full-frontal debut in Boogie Nights, Heather Graham has been one cracker Mr. Skin wouldn't mind eating in bed.

Oh, those Golden Grahams! On the outside, wide-eyed, rosy-lipped, sweet-faced blonde Heather Graham looks to be a mortal incarnation of an angel from heaven. One wouldn't be surprised if she were to slip out of her dress, revealing a divine pair of wings. Fortunately this angel's got a devilish streak and graciously gives us glances beneath her garb often. There are no wings, however, but the near-constant flashing of her celestial flesh is pure heaven! more…
