Have you ever felt embarrassed by a films artwork?

This caused some problems as you can imagine. Generally the people buying these things tended to be nervouse overweight 40 year olds who react badly to being embarressed. in nine years time i'll be an overweight 40 year old so I need to start thinking about that soft porn collection pretty soon. I bought erotic witch project from a charity shop a few days back so thats a start I guess!

Keirarts you have made me laugh so hard reading your reply. It sounds like Clerks when he reads aloud the video order. And Pete I rememeber walking up and down HMV plucking up the courage to buy some video with a bit tit on the cover. Erotic witch project was awful, but would love to see the uncut version if there is one.

erotic witch project was fairly naff, but no fellas in it at all! For me a bonus. I suspect it was cut down from a 'stronger' version.

Personally i've never been bothered by this stuff, I dont really have a fantastic smutt collection save some of the shameless stuff like beast in space and satans baby doll. Hell I had a collegue at work put through tinto brass's the key some fool traded in for 20p.

I've never been bothered about buying smut though I do feel twitchy buying films with really crap covers and get the urge to tell the person serving me how great the film truly is despite the naffness of the cover as I approach the service counter.

Years ago a friend of mine was to embarrassed to buy the Playboy with Sherilyn Fenn in it, so I got it for him. It was only after that I realised, I'd given him a hand to have a wank!

I thought the tent scene in Erotic Witch Project was quite erotic and sensual. Used to have the unrated ntsc video and it was no where near hardcore.

Ok, it's not a dvd, but City of the Living Dead on the Pacesetter video label? It is the only time where I have removed the original cover and replaced it with a text only white piece of paper. It really is/was that bad!

I have the ShockDVD release of Eat The School Girl with the lovely slogan;

Rape, murder....satisfaction

Yet I would be more ashamed to be seen with a copy of Twilight or Harry Potter.

I had that tape, posted a pic of it a while back. I'll see if I can find the thread it's in.
