This is not a complete filmography, but it’s about as complete as I’ve been able to make it. I’ve included all of the titles that I can remember I made as a director and/or producer except the short film The Savages (1964) and the documentaries Navajo Winter (1965) and Maui Adventure (1977).
I’d like to acknowledge the enormous amount of help I received from Michael Copner and Coco Olson of Cult Movies Magazine in assembling a good deal of the details in this list of films. At one time, the eminent film historian and writer Kalton C. Lahue attempted to compile a complete list of all the early films that I had made. It proved to be a daunting task because in those days I was churning out so many films, sometimes shooting two different features at the same time in a single day, and it never occurred to me to keep track of all of them.
AUTO EROTICISM & THE FEMALE
In the privacy of their own homes, several lonely females come up with various imaginative ways to satisfy their uninhibited passions. This was a pretty shoddy effort that involved stringing together six split-beaver loops to come up to a feature-length running time and adding a soundtrack composed of pirated music and canned moans and groans. (Softcore)
THE RISE & FALL OF RICKY SHUTER (1969)
In my first effort at trying to make a feature-film story, I came up with a half-baked idea about a photographer, Ricky Shuter, who makes his living shooting nudie cuties. But he runs into some hot water when a gangster named Mr. Big forces him to work off his gambling debt by shooting a stag movie. This was the first film in which I attempted using synch-sound utilizing a Uher crystal-synch recorder. (Softcore/Hardcore)
THE HISTORY OF PORNOGRAPHY (1970)
This somewhat bargain-basement documentary traces the development of erotica in Asia and Europe from the earliest times on through to the present. It includes scenes from rare hardcore pornographic films from France and Argentina and the classic 1950s stag film The Nun is presented almost in its entirety. (Hardcore)
SEXUS IN PARADISE (1970)
This pseudo-documentary purports to chronicle the Hawaiian swing scene, but in actually it is little more than just a bunch of Hawaiian travelogue footage interspersed, from time to time, with some pretty tame sex loops, only one of which was actually hardcore. This film was a somewhat blatent attempt to stretch the difinition of the documentary film in an attempt to get away with showing hardcore sex on screen. (Softcore/Hardcore)
THE GIRL FROM DENMARK
The story circles around the erotic adventures of tall, blonde Jan, newly arrived from Denmark, who sets out in Hollywood looking for a job and a place to stay. She finds a lot more than she bargained for when she encounters a horny employer and other interesting people. (Softcore)
LOVE: DENMARK STYLE
The pretty girl from Denmark returns! When it comes to love and free sex, the Danes are totally open, honest, and above-board, as is shown in this purported slice-of-life film in which suburban Los Angeles substitutes for Copenhagen. The affairs of the beautiful blonde Jan and others show us that sexual liberation can truly be fun. (Softcore)
SEX AND THE DANES
At this time, exploitation films in the guise of documentaries like Sexual Freedom in Denmark allowed the audience to see actual hardcore on the screen. We figured these softcore one-day wonders might sell if we utilized that selling point. (Softcore)
THE DANISH PASTRY
As the frenzy about Danish porn began to die down, so did our imaginations. We reverted, in this case, to pastry. (Softcore/Hardcore)
THE LOVE DOLL
A lonely clerk relies on an inflatable rubber doll to satisfy his sexual passions. But what happens when he falls in love with the doll and it miraculously comes to life as the girl of his dreams, the beautiful Shawn Cannon? (Softcore/Hardcore)
LITTLE SISTER
Poor little Debbie discovers that her frigidity was caused by the trauma of seeing her big sister, loudly making love to her husband when Debbie was only a child. Will this traumatic experience scar her forever or can she overcome it somehow by experiencing normal sex? (Softcore/Hardcore)
I, A VIRGIN
How’s a girl going to hold on to her virginity when everyone around her is having wild, uninhibited sex? It’s a sign of time times and Little Debbie eventually decides she at least has to try and keep up with them. (Hardcore)
NAKED NYMPHO
Some girls, like the sexy brunette Maria, just can’t seem to get enough. It takes both men and women to feed her insatiable lust. Will she ever be able to lead a normal life? I didn’t think very much of this film while we were making it, but it proved to be quite popular. (Hardcore)
SEX MARATHON
Filmed back-to-back with Naked Nympho, this cautionary tale reveals what happens when some swinging couples decide to get together for a sex party and the party gets out of hand. What transpires, naturally, is a wild and wooly sex marathon of epic proportions. (Hardcore)
DREAMBODY
We were really grabbing at straws when it came around to making this one. The story centered on a sexy lady with a dynamite body and her numerous sexual adventures and misadventures. Although it wasn’t a bad film, the theater owners began calling this film Greenbody because, due to a fixer error, the initial release prints came out in an unsightly shade of green. (Hardcore)
TEACHER’S PETS
Students and teachers and teachers and teachers and students and students sometimes do things that they definitely should not do. Sheila is a very horny high school teacher who simply can’t control herself, either with her students or her fellow teachers. It’s suffice to say that extracurricular activities were never like this. (Hardcore)
FIRES DOWN BELOW (1971)
A Vietnam War widow’s life is suddenly interrupted by a mysterious stranger who claims to have known her late husband during the war. When she invites him into her life, he proceeds to turn it completely upside down. (Hardcore)
JOHNNY WADD (aka JOHNNY GUNN)
In the first Johnny Wadd film, the private detective is hired to find a missing girl, then he’s hired not to find her. Of course he has to take most of his pay in the form of sex, which doesn’t daunt him in the least except when the missing girl’s mother shows up and wants to have sex with him. Wadd eventually regains his stride and saves the girl. (Hardcore)
FLESH OF THE LOTUS (1971)
Johnny Wadd’s second case has him searching for the killer of an old girlfriend who has mysteriously disappeared. Before long it becomes a search that leads him to a trail of drugs and perversion, with some unexpected twists and turns that eventually take him to the mysterious and deadly alleyways of Chinatown where he has his initial confrontation with the dangerous and mysterious Oriental villain known as Frankie. (Hardcore)
THE BLONDE IN BLACK LACE (1971)
With the third installment of the Johnny Wadd series, the private detective is hired to get the goods on the title blonde, Mrs. Susan Furnaux’s millionaire husband, who she truly suspects is cheating on her. Of course, he is, but not quite in the way she suspects. (Hardcore)
TROPIC OF PASSION (1971)
Blackmail and intrigue meet Johnny Wadd when he arrives in Hawaii, where he tries to insure that a prospective heiress will inherit her fortune by finding and destroying the only thing that stands in her way—a pornographic film loop that someone secretly made of her. (Hardcore)
THE LIBERATED WOMAN (1972)
Sandi is a bored, restless, and lonely housewife with a dull, ordinary husband, who one day gets it into her mind to set out and explore the new age of free love. Her neighbor happens to be the love guru John Parker, and he shows her the way, persuading her to try all the things that she’s been missing out on.

A writer falls in love with a cute blonde who lives in his apartment building. When he discovers that she’s a virgin living with her beautiful lover, he decides to switch her to the right path. The experience is everything he expected it to be. The problem is, it wasn’t for her.
THE DANISH CONNECTION (1972)
A bunch of bizarre misfits populates this zany softcore film, in which Johnny Wadd makes an appearance, built around the outtake footage from Tropic of Passion. The story is about impotent millionaire Herbert Steele, who is after a sex potion that will solve his problem and allow him to screw his secretary Miss Kitty Polenti. He hires Cassidy to get it. This film is often erroneously credited as being the first Johnny Wadd film, perhaps because of the release dates due to it being softcore. It is not even a true Johnny Wadd film, although for promotional purposes Manny Conde tried to make it appear like one. (Softcore)
EVIL COME, EVIL GO (1972)
The cult sex film auteur Walt Davis, who also directed The Danish Connection, wrote and directed this softcore off-beat slasher film about a psychotic religious freak that picks men up in bars and lures them into having sex with her before she casually and methodically disembowels them. Arriving in Hollywood, she meets a young, gullible female disciple at a hamburger stand and together they go on a bloody rampage. Some of the scenes in this film were shot simultaneously with The Danish Connection. (Softcore)
THE ALL AMERICAN GIRL (1972)
Debbie is the All-American girl of the seventies. In this era of sexual freedom she not only loves to make friends—but husbands, and even wives, as well. Debbie went from lollipops to lust in one short, hot summer in this erotic coming of age story that is quite unlike any other. (Softcore)
BLUE MONEY (1972)
This film was actually based on some of the incidents that my partner Alain Patrick and I experienced during the early days of the adult film industry. Alain plays Jim, the fictional pornographer whose sole goal in life is to make enough money to have a decent life with his beautiful wife Lisa and their little baby. Eventually, finds himself in deep trouble with the law and not only his freedom but his very way of life is seriously threatened. (R-Rated General release)
BROTHER AND SISTER (1973)

An unemployed musician makes a deal with a mysterious businessman to sell five hundred kilos of high-grade marijuana in three days. What follows is a a whirlwind marathon of grass dealing as the musician tries to unload the stuff while dodging local law enforcement, avoiding a determined BNDD agent, and staying one step ahead of a dogged repossesser trying to get his hands on the musician’s van.

(General Release Feature)

This convoluted film noir-type tale is set in Suburbia, USA. It is about passion, blackmail, betrayal and revenge. There is a memorable extended blowjob scene at the beginning choreographed to the music of Ravel’s Bolero. (Hardcore)

Hardcore American remake of the softcore Japanese porno-noir film The Love Robots. Attractive young girls are disappearing off the streets of San Francisco and ending up in the basement of Dr. Severin’s villa to be turned into love slaves and assassins.

Some wild and crazy antics with cute and sexy pizza delivery girls who deliver a hell of a lot more than pizza. (Hardcore)
TELEFANTASY (1978)
After the success of Candy Stripers, Pacific Coast Films wanted me to make another light comedy for them.

CALIFORNIA GIGOLO (1979)
A lighthearted comedic romp satarizing the hedonistic California lifestyle. John C. Holmes plays a self-styled California gigolo who possesses an attribute that many women find irresistable.

(Hardcore)
BLONDE FIRE (1980)
“South Africa provides the lush and exotic background for the most lavishly produced Johnny Wadd film ever made, Blonde Fire. Private detective Johnny Wadd is hired to deliver a stolen and recovered four-million-dollar diamond to its rightful owners in Capetown. As soon as he arrives in South Africa he has a run-in with Vicki Crothers, the head of security for the largest diamond company in the world. And from that point on the detective finds himself involved in a baffling series of coincidences.”
Thus reads the introduction for the official synopsis from the pressbook of Blonde Fire. One would do well to heed the last sentence of the synopsis: “Johnny’s final suspicions are confirmed leading to an explosive climax before a final twist ending that proves that things are indeed, not always as they seem.” While Blonde Fire was certainly the most expensive and arguably the most ambitious of all the Wadd films, this doesn’t necessarily mean that it is the best. (Hardcore)

But the best laid plans of mice and men can easily turn to shit, especially when there are greedy, grasping women involved. (Hardcore)
LAS VEGAS LADY (1980)
A promiscuous Las Vegas girl ends up leaving a trail of torrid sexual conquests in her wake. When asked about this film by Michael Copner, I replied: “What I definitely do know about Las Vegas Lady is that it was probably the worst film that I ever made. Fortunately, to this day this title remains one of the most difficult of my films to find. To say that I am truly embarrassed about it would be an understatement.” (Hardcore)
EXHAUSTED
Colin Jacobson wrote that Exhausted was “a porn film with a famous connection. Significant portions of Boogie Nights were inspired by Exhausted. Actually, “inspired by” is a nice phrase, for anyone who watches Boogie Nights will see scenes that were almost perfectly lifted from Exhausted.”
What the film is actually composed of is a compilation of clips of John Holmes movies that I made for Freeway Films interspersed with a lot of interview footage that Julia shot.
THE YOUNG LIKE IT HOT (1982)

BLONDIE (1985)
“Set in the Bahamas, the story centers around a gorgeous, horny housewife whose sexual adventures and misadventures on the island paradise provide lighthearted but heavily heated comedy entertainment. Blondie is just one woman who can’t be kept down by any man or woman.” So reads the synopsis for this little film, which is one of the more obscure titles in my filmography.

This film chronicles a long day and night at a seedy Las Vegas motel. The story opens when two unemployed construction workers from Michigan who are on their way to a better life in California decide to stop over in Las Vegas.

In one room, Paul, a small-time theatrical agent sees the possibility of making the motel maid into a star. In another is a young honeymoon couple with a horny bride who does her best to keep her husband away from the gambling tables. The motel also houses a hardened prostitute and her shy cowboy customer; two businessmen picking up a couple of pornstars for some late night entertainment; a middle-aged aunt discovering that her nephew is much bigger than she thought he was; and a couple of shy high-school seniors posing as a married couple.

GEN SEX (2000)
The AVN review reads: “Luscious Stephanie Swift is a television newsmagazine reporter who learns some valuable lessons while covering a special segment on women and orgasms in this well-made, very entertaining video. While Gen Sex offers plenty of juicy action to get viewers going, the video’s best asset is its frank look at female pleasure and the importance of open communication between partners to achieving that sometimes elusive ‘big O’… and finally reaches a climax with a mutual lap-session between the reporter and her horny camerawoman. Don’t expect to find anything more bold than a little finger-in-the-ass action here, but viewers looking for a solid, woman-centered story fleshed out with a variety of enticing sex won’t be disappointed.” (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
THE SPA (2000)
The story, such as it is, chronicles a day of erotic goings-on at a very ritzy Beverly Hills spa for horny women—and of course these goings-on involve a lot of hot and heavy sex.
The spa is a place where rich women can shed the frustrations and cares of their boring everyday lives and relax, play, and reenergize their pampered bodies by dallying discreetly with their handsome boy toys—and their beautiful girl toys if they are so inclined. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
THE JADE GODDESS (2001)
In the second Peter Magnum outing and the first feature release for New Era Entertainment, the lead role was recast with Lee Stone. The story owes a little something to The Jade Pussycat, since I recycled the idea of the private investigator becoming involved with a legendary priceless Chinese artifact once again. This was either due to poverty of imagination on my part or a desire to stick with something that had proved to be successful in the past. Upon its release, we received decent reviews and good video sales followed, so New Era was launched on a positive note. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
NAKED ANGELS (2001)
The third Peter Magnum film borrows something from China Cat with my use, once again, of the three-girl team called Charlie’s Devils, as the private investigator’s case with the Jade Goddess continues. Also added to the mix to provide some comedy relief were a pair of gangsters—a dangerous low-level mafioso named Moretti and a bumbling thief named Blake. They ended up working so well together that I decided to develop their characters more fully in the next two Peter Magnum features. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
DAUGHTERS OF THE DRAGON (2001)
In the final episode of the Jade Goddess trilogy, private investigator Peter Magnum and his gorgeous new secretary Alice go up against three deadly Asian hitwomen sent by the Hong Kong and Macao triads to retrieve the statuette and restore it to its rightful place.
On a lighter note, of course, Blake and Moretti, who have escaped from prison, are still along for the ride—this time working more as a team, albeit somewhat reluctantly, in their own attempts to steal the valuable artifact. Porn legend Jade East came out of retirement to make a special appearance in this one. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
FALLEN ANGELS (2001)
The Fallen Angels are the escaped killers Blake and Moretti who discover life and love in rural America as they travel the back roads in their quest for freedom. Hot on their trail, private investigator Peter Magnum runs into a sexual encounter he will remember for the rest of his life. Fallen Angels emerges as an erotic thriller that is also an unexpectedly complex and insightful meditation on mortality and morality. This was one of the few scripts that I was truly happy with after I finished writing it. Although it tends to be a little talky in places and the acting is not all that great, I sort of liked this one. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
BLONDE IN BLACK LEATHER (2001)
Private investigator Peter Magnum is caught in the middle of a war between two rival drug lords. His investigation leads him to to an experience with some wild and uninhibited Gang Girls as he searches for the mysterious, beautiful, and deadly Blonde in Black Leather. This was the first script that my nephew Rex Carlton wrote for me and he did a great job. I was beginning to feel that all the stuff I was writing was turning into the same old, same old, so this was a refreshing change. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
BLONDE FURY (2001)
In his review for AVN, film critic Tod Hunter wrote: “…As usual in Chinn features, sex scenes break out every few minutes, seven in all, just like in the ‘70s Golden Age when he learned his craft. As an added witty touch he has cast several of his seventies-era colleagues, all still active in the business, for on-camera cameos.” (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
JENNY RAIN, PORNO STAR (2001)
We were all getting somewhat bored with shooting Peter Magnum features, so we decided to add some variety to our release schedule by shooting a period porn story set during the Golden Age. My nephew Rex Carlton came up with some ideas and wrote the script and a little confection that we called Jenny Rain—Porno Star was the result. The story is about a magazine writer assigned to check out the new porn industry that’s been making waves across the country. In the process he and his super-straight girlfriend get all caught up in sexual freedom and the swinging lifestyle. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
YOUNG AND DANGEROUS (2001)
The eighth Peter Magnum feature sees his buddy, police detective George Lee, suspended for misconduct in the evidence room with a sweet and seemingly innocent blonde who has stolen an important little black book that tagged as important evidence in a crucial ongoing investigation.
As he tries to help his friend, Peter Magnum uncovers a sinister sex ring run by the dangerous Anjelica. The private investigator enlists the aid of a pretty assistant DA to help him set things right. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
DANGEROUS OBSESSION (2001)
The memory of a slain family member haunts Peter Magnum as he discovers the truth behind a tangled web of deception, treachery, and passion resulting from a Dangerous Obsession. Rex Carlton continued to try infusing new ideas into the Peter Magnum series with this one, but I couldn’t help but have the feeling, in the end, that it was going nowhere. Lee Stone’s wooden performances continued to bother me, and he wasn’t getting any better as the series progressed. Of course, in all fairness, nobody else was much better when it came to the acting department as well. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
PLATINUM BLONDE (2001)
Movie starlet Anna Lee Johnson is on trial for murdering her aged husband. Peter Magnum is pulled into the headlines when his friend is implicated in the suit. Magnum and his seductive associates weave their way through a world of opulence, fame, and the media that pursues them. After this ninth feature in the Peter Magnum series, I figured that it was time to move on to something different, so this was the last feature in the series. Lee would continue to play the role of Peter Magnum in supporting roles in the next two series. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
RE-ENTER JOHNNY WADD (2001)
When a mysterious lady hires San Pedro private investigator John Wolfe to solve a murder that happened many years ago, he uncovers a long-hidden secret that leads him to question his own past. He is relentless and persistent in his search for the shocking truth, which he learns after confronting his mother: his father was the legendary private detective Johnny Wadd. In the meantime, he must tackle a difficult case that will lead him to seek out one of his late father’s old enemies, which eventually results in finding the man who killed him. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
SATIN AND SABOTAGE (2001)
The second Johnny Wadd, Jr. feature was the first part of a trilogy that sees him going after a priceless medieval artifact and encountering a variety of villains in the process. Since valuable Oriental artifacts like the Jade Pussycat and Jade Goddess had worked for me before, I decided to see if I could do the same thing by using a legendary European treasure—in this case, the fabled Sword of Emperor Charlemagne. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
SILK AND SEDUCTION (2002)
In the second part of the Sword of Charlemagne trilogy, Johnny Wadd, Jr. comes up against a new set of deadly villains who are all after the same valuable artifact. Not much new here, although we did add an Asian agent to the mix in an attempt to come up with something just a little more exotic. Then again, I was getting the distinct feeling that I was just recycling the same old tired plots over and over again. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
PASSION AND BETRAYAL (2002)
After a torrid and passionate affair leading to a sudden, unexpected betrayal, Johnny Wadd, Jr. seeks retribution while passing through the steamy and seductive underbelly of Hollywood, where he finally finds the answers that lead him to the legendary, unconquerable Sword of Charlemagne. This feature marked the final chapter of the trilogy. I was somewhat uncertain as to whether I wanted to continue on with this series, but I soldiered on. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
CITY OF DESIRE (2002)
In a city corrupted by strange passions and illicit desires, private investigator Johnny Wadd, Jr. finds himself framed for murder. In this fifth installment of the series, he becomes enmeshed in a bizarre and violent scheme involving blackmail and extortion from which there seems to be no escape. I was beginning to run out of enthusiasm as well as ideas for this new character I had created, and this feature, along with Jewel in the Lotus, which was shot back-to-back with it, would be the last of the short-lived series. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
JEWEL IN THE LOTUS (2002)
In this final installment, the strange circumstances surrounding the death of a gorgeous model lead Johnny Wadd, Jr. to investigate what appears to be a vicious murder linked to a criminal ring smuggling contraband blood diamonds from Africa. In the midst of a wild Hollywood party at the home of a famous photographer, he finally finds the key to the mystery. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
TIJUANA DETECTIVE [INVESTIGADOR PRIVADO] (2002)
In a wide open city south of the border, a Mexican private investigator becomes involved with a mysterious lady who is searching for her long lost sister. Before long, he is embroiled in a series of unexpected situations involving a cheating husband, an oversexed hotel maid, a sexy nightclub owner, and a famous Los Angeles private detective. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
THE AZTEC DAGGER [LA DAGA AZTECA] (2002)
The search for missing heiress Frieda Diaz continues in this exciting sequel to Tijuana Detective, as the Mexican private investigator and his American counterpart Peter Magnum try to piece together a baffling mystery that involves some gorgeous models and a beautiful but potentially deadly dealer in Aztec antiquities. Along the way they run into some unexpected but pleasurable erotic encounters. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
THE SERPENT’S SECRET [EL SECRETO DE LA SERPIENTE] (2002)
The strange circumstances surrounding the disappearance of the missing heiress Frieda Diaz continue to a thrilling conclusion as private investigator Nick Grande uncovers a bizarre and sinister plot. The adventure leads to the rebel-infested jungles of Guatamala and a quest for the Lost City and a legendary golden Aztec dagger. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
BORDER GIRLS [CHICAS DE LA FRONTIERA] (2003)
A missing American college student brings private investigator Peter Magnum back to Mexico, where he enlists the aid of his friend Nick Grande. Together, they delve into the haunts of the thrill-seeking border girls before Grande learns that the girl they are looking for is in the hands of two very dangerous drug lords, the vicious De la Cruz brothers Moses and Archibaldo. But is she a willing or unwilling captive? (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
WHITE GOLD [ORO BLANCO]
Tijuana detective Nick Grande heads down to Baja California and the Mexican seaport town of Ensenada, where he enlists Peter Magnum to help him in his search for a missing American college student. Together, they must gain the confidence of Antonia, the beautiful head of a call-girl ring, when they go up against two powerful Mexican drug lords. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
THE LOST GIRL [LA CHICA PERDIDA]
Nick Grande rekindles the flame of his first love, who is now the state prosecutor Marga Villegas, as he tries to nail the notorious De la Cruz brothers and their drug cartel. Eventually, he teams with Peter Magnum to gain entry to the drug lords’ mansion, where they encounter two insatiable nymphs, Gina and Mina. Meanwhile, the lost girl’s sister arrives in Tijuana, where Grande’s sensuous secretary Lorena makes her feel right at home. (Hardcore and Softcore versions)
