LFP Releases 'Mercedez Takes Control'

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - LFP has released Mercedez Takes Control, the second title from ex-Vivid Girl Nina Mercedez' production company Heartbreaker Films.

Mercedez collaborated with on- and offscreen partner Raymond Balboa on the story-driven feature about a hit woman who wants to get out of the business.

"This is the first feature title that we shot and it was a lot of work, but I am so glad we did it," said Mercedez. "Shooting all-sex vignettes will always be my first love. But after doing this movie, I have a better appreciation for my experiences working with Vivid director, Paul Thomas. All of those years working with him really helped me in directing some of the acting and dialogue scenes."

Alongside Mercedez and Balboa, Mercedez Takes Control stars Gianna Lynn, Puma Swede, Christina Agucci, Melissa Lauren, Anthony Hardwood and Ben English.

"I am very happy with it and I think it came out great, we had to do some heavy editing due to LFP's standards; some of the death sequences had to be dropped, but I will be releasing the 'Directors Cut' on VOD, cable and also for hotels," said Mercedez.

"We put a lot of hard work and passion into the entire project. I'm a lot happier in my career and in my life and I think that it really shows in my movies."

HeartBreaker Films debuted in March with Latina Anal HeartBreakers. The company recently wrapped its third movie, Thrust, for a projected fall release.

"We have taken even more control with Thrust as Raymond Balboa performs, directs, edits and designed the box cover," said Mercedez. "This movie has more of a glamour, vintage rock and roll feel to it. Thrust is like nothing we have ever done before, and we are looking forward to the release."

Mercedez is the co-owner of HeartBreaker Films and a former Vivid contract girl. She has been featured in over 30 Vivid titles and has also starred in Virtual Sex with Mercedez. She was crowned Miss Nude Universe, Miss Nude North America, Miss Nude International and winner of the coveted Golden-G-String Award.

Rock? It's Your Decision...

You probably won't find this through NetFlix or rummaging around some dusty thrift store with other dumpster-diving hipsters, but the good folks at 5minutestolive.com have done the legwork for you. Isn't that nice of them?

What has any of this to do with porn? Er, quite a lot actually... rock music, drugs, suicide, bad fashion, and bad music. Case closed.

As the DVD sleeves states, this is an amazing Christian propaganda film that focuses on the evils of rock music. See young Jeff ignore his mother and his preacher as he turns to the evil pleasures of really bad 70's cock rock. Apparently rock leads to all things bad, including suicide, drug use and amazingly awful fashion.

One of the most famous and wonderful of all Christian scare films, this one really packs on the preachy moments, going as far as showing a fully converted Jeff telling his rock n' roll friends that they are nothing by evil sinners, living the devil's life of rock debauchery.

Also on this disc is the jaw dropping video Ms. Velma's Most Incredibly Magnificent Christmas Week! Ms. Velma is an L. A. evangelist who teaches that beauty and fashion go hand and hand with the Lord and his word. This is her Christmas special, which she performs in a completely empty auditorium along with her youth choir, which is made up of a bunch of 42-year-old men!

Henri Pachard to Direct Barely Legal Troublemakers

Barely Legal, the celebrated HUSTLER series, is making history with the production of Barely Legal Troublemakers. Legendary director Henri Pachard is set to direct the distinctive title this weekend.

Pachard, an AVN Hall of Fame writer/director, has penned a vignette piece about college girls with a penchant for hell-raising. The director, who recently battled cancer, is ready to get back behind the camera after a long hiatus. "After getting past the cancer and four surgeries," says Pachard, "bring those adorable brats on!"

"Henri is the best of the best," says Drew Rosenfeld, Creative Director, HUSTLER Video Group. "His script and ideas for Troublemakers are amazing, and we can't wait to see the finished product."

While Pachard kept busy helping other directors during his recovery, it is working on his own projects that brings him the most pleasure. "I pitched Troublemakers to Drew Rosenfeld, and he liked my idea enough to work it into the Barely Legal lineup," says Pachard. "I haven't been this excited about shooting since the early '90s, when I was directing films in 35 millimeter. And having my son, Ralph Parfait, shooting camera for me really puts the icing on the cake."

Barely Legal Troublemakers stars Lexi Belle, Sarah Fay, Kayden Faye, Christine Alexis and Andi Anderson.
