As the presidential election climaxes, history is on the side of adult movie director Will Ryder and his latest project Not Traci Lords XXX Superstars Reborn to become a heavily award-nominated feature movie.  The sex parody recently picked up a key industry trophy that has been a powerful indicator of future movie success so it will come as no surprise to see the sizzling historical look at the 1980s porn business front and center at the AVN, XBiz and XRCO Awards in 2017. 

“A movie like this had never been made,” offered movie critic Art Koch of NightMoves Magazine in Tampa Florida which deemed Not Traci Lords XXX Superstars Reborn a winner of their First Choice Award that predicts newly released movies that will become major contenders for coveted industry awards in Las Vegas and Los Angeles.

“We are extremely happy to see history has a good chance of repeating itself,”  Ryder stated between bites of a Teriyaki Chicken plate while dining with a known prostitute at a Hollywood eatery.  “It’s time to have some fun and that’s what the iconic porn stars of the 1980s were all about and our movie takes you back to 1984.  The fact that NightMoves has predicted so many movies that would go on to commercial and critical award success such as Not the Bradys XXX, Not the Jersey Boys XXX, Not the Wizard of Oz is why we’re so excited about the prospects of award nominations and victories.”

Not Traci Lords XXX ’80s Superstars Reborn stars Lucy Tyler as Traci Lords, Carter Cruise as Samantha Strong, Cameron Dee as Amber Lynn, Courtney Shea as Ginger Lynn, Zoey Monroe as Bunny Bleu, Mia Austin as Nina DePonca, Angelina Chung as Kristara Barrington, Ashley Graham as Nina Hartley, Gaia as Mai Lin, Angel Del Rey as ‘the fluffer’ and the late Natasha Vega as the beautiful and busty Christy Canyon.

The men playing the ’80s studs, directors and agents are Tyler Nixon as a young Tom Byron, Richie Calhoun as John Holmes, Kurt Lockwood as Jerry Butler, Jay Smooth as Jeff Styker, Eric John as Eric Edwards, Anthony Rosano as director Henri Pachard, Rick Garcia as director Freddie Lincoln, and Tom Byron as original talent agent Jim South.  Misty Stone, Tom Byron and Ron Jeremy narrate the journey back to porn’s classic era of 1984 with veteran Hall of Fame director Roy Karch serving as a historical consultant.

What makes this movie special?  In a world of worn-out ideas, rehashed themes and similar styles, Ryder had the unique concept of casting today’s young porn starlets to play the iconic superstars of porn’s greatest generation in a movie that dives deeply into the skin business of the early 1980s showcasing how porn was shot and marketed back in the day.

“If you want to see what the porn business was like especially when it was often times illegal to produce or sell, then this is a must-see movie,” X-Play co-producer Scott David remarked.  “This will easily be a major contender for best parody.”

“I’m actually pretty surprised I was still able to think up something new that the porn biz had never done before.”

A student of the history of the adult movie business, Ryder scored his first music soundtrack for porn movies back in 1983 and reflects on the advent of the VHS tape in the 1980s which made it possible to shoot without film.  “This was an amazing achievement as it ushered in a new era of porn consumption allowing the viewer to watch sex movies in the privacy of their own home.  Stop and think about that for a just a moment,” Ryder said passionately.

“Before this golden-age era you had to sit in a big 900 seat theater back in 1977 with eleven creepy men wearing raincoats all jerking off in unison.  It was a terrible way to get off,” Ryder joked. “I’m really proud of this movie and I think everybody in the industry should watch it especially the new girls.  I’m also really grateful to the legends of the 1980s for paving the way for everybody in the business today and for being so awesome.”
