The Lost Classic of 70s XXX Super-Stud John Holmes Returns to the Screen

Long Lost John Holmes Movie Johnny Wad to Get DVD Release

The late John Holmes, the real life inspiration for the character of Dirk Diggler in Boogie Nights, is about to get a rebirth on DVD thanks to venerable porn company VCX, according to the adult news site AVN.com.

Johnny Wadd, the first in a series of movies mixing sex and violence that star the famously well-endowed Holmes as a hardboiled detective named Johnny Wadd, has never been released officially on VHS or DVD, but a well-preserved print recently discovered in a storage locker has made an official release possible.

Aside from tons of freaky 70s porno sex, action scenes, and one of the largest penises in the history of adult movies, the DVD will also feature a commentary by legendary director Bob Chinn.

Until the DVD comes out on September 23rd, fans of the Golden Age of Porn can content themselves with watching Heather Graham’s full frontal scene in Boogie Nights or a bikini-clad Paris Hilton as Holmes’s girlfriend in the biopic Wonderland.
