Finding Planet Porno: The Wild Journey of American Cinema’s First Outlaw

In the a(n)nals of cinematic history, there’s perhaps no sex comedy more infamous than 1974’s “Flesh Gordon”, a raunchy, campy spoof of the “Flash Gordon” serials of the1930s. The tale of the man behind it – American pornographic filmmaker Howard Ziehm – is no less (a)rousing than the film itself. See how an outrageous piece of erotic history was produced in the context of the free-wheeling porn industry of 1960s and 1970s LA, as well as what its legacy gave us. Then, see the real thing for yourself!
