  • Forced Entry 30Th November 2015
    Forced Entry th 30 November 2015 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Shaun Costello for taking time to answer my questions, and Martin Brooks, Oliver Carter, and Tony Richards for their valuable suggestions. ‘There is no better way to know death than to link it through some licentious image’ The Marquis De Sade (Quoted in Bataille 1986: 11) Forced Entry (Shaun Costello, 1972) is a sexually violent feature film which blurs perceptions of 1970s American hardcore cinema as a ‘golden age’ of creative ambition, commercial possibility and broader mainstream acceptance, a phenomenon that has been identified most resonantly as ‘porno chic’. This term originated in Ralph Blumenthal’s (1973) New York Times article bearing the same name, and soon entered into discussions on pornography’s role within that decade’s liberal trends of morality and sexuality, before achieving later ubiquity in various inquiries into porn’s 21st century cultural status (See McNair 2012). This was prompted by the succès de scandale of Deep Throat (Gerard Damiano, 1972), Behind The Green Door (Artie and Jim Mitchell, 1972), The Resurrection of Eve (Jon Fontana and Artie Mitchell, 1973) and The Devil in Miss Jones (Gerard Damiano, 1973). All of these films were male authored, but dealt in some way with both the potential and the limitations of a female protagonist’s sexual assertion relative to masculine primacy, in scenarios which were either conventionally dramatic, comedic or even steeped in the supernatural. However, in Forced Entry, not only is the film male authored, but its point of view is channelled through a psychologically disturbed Vietnam war veteran - now a New York gas station attendant - who stalks selected female customers before raping and murdering them in their homes, seemingly as a punishment for sexual assertiveness and social independence which threaten his fragile claims to masculine authority.

    ANTHOLOGY FILM ARCHIVES OCTOBER – DECEMBER PRESS LISTINGS OCTOBER 2013 PRESS LISTINGS MIX NYC PRESENTS: Tommy Goetz A BRIDE FOR BRENDA 1969, 62 min, 35mm MIX NYC, the producer of the NY Queer Experimental Film Festival, presents a special screening of sexploitation oddity A BRIDE FOR BRENDA, a lesbian-themed grindhouse cheapie set against the now-tantalizing backdrop of late-60s Manhattan. Shot in Central Park, Times Square, the Village, and elsewhere, A BRIDE FOR BRENDA narrates (quite literally – the story is told via female-voiced omniscient narration rather than dialogue) the experiences of NYC-neophyte Brenda as she moves into an apartment with Millie and Jane. These apparently unremarkable roommates soon prove themselves to be flesh-hungry lesbians, spying on Brenda as she undresses, attempting to seduce her, and making her forget all about her paramour Nick (and his partners in masculinity). As the narrator intones, “Once a young girl has been loved by a lesbian, it’s difficult to feel satisfaction from a man again.” –Thurs, Oct 3 at 7:30. TAYLOR MEAD MEMORIAL SCREENING Who didn’t love Taylor Mead? Irrepressible and irreverent, made of silly putty yet always sharp- witted, he was an underground icon in the Lower East Side and around the world. While THE FLOWER THIEF put him on the map, and Andy Warhol lifted him to Superstardom, Taylor truly made his mark in the incredibly vast array of films and videos he made with notables and nobodies alike. A poster child of the beat era, Mead was a scene-stealer who was equally vibrant on screen, on stage, or in a café reading his hilarious, aphoristic poetry.
