Review

The long-awaited release of the acclaimed film. The definitive documentary of the life of John Holmes, the "Elvis of porn." Now although there are really no gay hardcore scenes here, Holmes does discuss - quite openly - being approached by men (size queens, no doubt), and his few forays into the world of gay smut. Fascinating stuff for porn buffs.

Sprinkled throughout the hardcore scenes are a facinating litany of interviews with an amazing array of people: porn moguls, Holmes' wife, stars who worked with him, the cops who used to bust him, etc.
-Keeneye Reeves

From the liner notes:
"In the history of adult cinema no name is better known than that of John Holmes. Wadd is a documentary that explores the many facets of the life and world of this pop-culture icon. From his childhood in rural Ohio to his death from AIDS, this film unravels the myths surrounding Holmes and lays bare his persona's darker side."

"Wadd is seedy, twisted... and creepily fascinating."
-Richard Corliss, Time Magazine

"... a superb documentary epic... the ultimate film-festival discovery."
-Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
