Seventies Vancouver porno, coming to a big screen not near you

    1 of 2 2 of 2

      The long lost Vancouver-lensed XXX feature Sexcula is getting its first theatrical screening since 1974—but not here. 

      In advance of its DVD release on April 9 through Impulse Pictures, the legendary horror-porno—which was made with CFDC tax credits back when the world was a much simpler and happier and dirtier place—will screen for one night only at the Big Picture Cinema on Gerrard, in Toronto. 

      Sexcula was thought to be lost forever until Canuxploitation's Paul Corupe found a copy at Library and Archives Canada.

      The film, which stars your mom for all you know, is noted for combining the then vogueish nostalgia for Universal horror movies with a contemporary interest in watching people "do it."

      The good news is that another original 16mm print of the movie has been located -- in fact the producer's copy. Whereas the Archived print is not available to be screened, and thus the Toronto showing is of the DVD, we are now in a position to arrange a screening of the actual film print in Vancouver.
