FORMAT: DVD
Porno Mondo is an obviously fake mondo movie about pornography. That doesn’t mean it’s not without its merits. First, we meet a porno producer named George Gasser who is interviewed about the production of sex pictures. Meanwhile, we see two sex scenes intercut with the interview.
Next, a pornographic writer (played by sex starlet Rene Bond) is interviewed while we watch a lesbian couple go at it on a couch. Then, we see a pair of sex performers on set who are interviewed after shooting their big scene. This is followed by a porn distributor who is interviewed while a woman is shown blowing a guy in the kitchen.
Then, there’s a hot scene where porn star Alice Doe disrobes and demonstrates her fellatio technique for the camera before masturbating with a vibrator. We then meet the processor at a film lab who tells us how pornographic films have changed over the years. Finally, an adult theater owner is interviewed while scenes of a couple fucking in front of a fireplace is shown.
Yes, this is less a probing documentary on the subject of porno and more of a… you know… porno. However, you can tell that the filmmakers really believe much of what they are saying about the industry and that they were trying to sneak a message in there amid the sex and “wet” scenes, which is at the very least admirable. It also helps that a handful of the scenes are actually kinda sexy.
We also get some unintentionally funny moments along the way, like when a narrator solemnly reads excerpts from the Bill of Rights intercut with footage of sex shops and porno theaters. I wish there was more of this kind of shit. Still, it’s not a bad pseudo-documentary by any means.
