A little late with this one, but streeting today from Excite-DVD is the infamous, finally-arriving-on-DVD documentary Exhausted, aka "The John Holmes Story." This must-see was the inspiration behind P.T. Anderson's Boogie Nights (some would say Anderson's "liberal" lifting from Exhausted borders on plagiarism) and this DVD features the uncut version of Julia St. Vincent's insightful ode to Holmes. You Boogie Nights fans may recall that New Line was originally going to include a condensed half-hour version of Exhausted on the two-disc Boogie Nights reissue they released last August, and though some early review samples included the doc, it was dropped from the final product amid much talk of rights issues and other problems. Check out the Excite-DVD website for more info on how to get it, and dig that great packaging!  [Link] |
The Wanderer  All-Star Member 192 Posts 6/00 | Posted - Jun 5 2001 : 9:08PM It's slightly unclear to me from reading Excite-DVD's website exactly which company is releasing this title. None of the other on-line stores appear to know anything about it, so what's the story? Are Excite running their own video label or is Julia St. Vincent distributing the DVD herself? The packaging shown looks completely fake to me.  [Link] |

| The Wanderer All-Star Member 192 Posts 6/00 | Posted - Jun 8 2001 : 5:29PM Thanks for the clarification. This sounds very promising indeed and I hope MG Media have better luck than iCandy did. [Link] |
| Black Coffee Member 128 Posts 3/01 | Posted - Jun 8 2001 : 6:11PM I've also got a bunch of related questions if anyone knows the answers: [Link] |
| M.B. Senior Member 1679 Posts 2/01 | Posted - Jun 8 2001 : 7:28PM I emailed them to find out whether they will still be releasing the dvd's they had planned on before they were burglarized, and they told me that they are going to release the Marilyn Chambers Private Fantasies series first (#1 is already out), and they are working on getting the masters for the other feature titles that were stolen from them, but they did not tell me which specific titles (I'm also hoping it's the Johnny Wadd stuff), that was a while ago so you might want to try and email them and ask. As far as MG Media is concerned, I don't think that they have a web site yet, but I got their email address from an AVN article a while back, it's: icandvd@mediaone.net [Link] |
