Best 70’s Porn Movies
Though most people associate the 1970s with Grease or The Rocky Horror Picture Show, the decade was also fantastic for adult cinema for other reasons. Considered by some as the “golden age of porn,” the 1970s saw a rise in the popularity and critical recognition of pornographic movies (Deep Throat, for example).
The best 1970s pornographic movies are available for you to add to your collection, whether you’re watching them by yourself or with a friend, according to Adult B2B Marketing.
The Story of Joanna (1975)
One of the best pornographic movies of the 1970s is The Story of Joanna, which came out in 1975. Jamie Gillis and Terri Hall feature in the Gerard Damiano-directed film, which tells the story of a billionaire who has a sadomasochistic connection with a young girl who is easily influenced. The film garnered favorable reviews upon its initial release. Robert Feelbrite of Pornogmagy gave it a B- and said, “The scene between Graham and Colt would have to rank as one of the best shot hardcore scenes I can remember.” It has become legendary since its debut and has been honored with an induction into the XRCO Hall of Fame.
The Spirit of Seventy Sex (1976)
Directed by Stu Segall, The Spirit of Seventy-Sex featured Annette Haven and the legendary John Holmes. It was released in 1976, the year of the US bicentennial celebration. It’s the epitome of ironic or historical porn. A humorous look at the sexual practices of the founding fathers of the United States, including Captain George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and George and his wife, is presented in The Spirit of Seventy Sex. At first, the reception was ambivalent, but as time went on, it became more and more well-liked and was praised for being an extremely seductive film.
Deep Throat (1972)
We cannot examine the finest porn of the 1970s without including Deep Throat, which was critically acclaimed upon its premiere in 1972. Being directed by Gerard Damiano and starring the legendary Linda Lovelace and Harry Reems, it is considered to be at the forefront of the 1970s Golden Age of Porn. It is regarded as one of the first pornographic movies ever made, with a compelling story, well-developed characters, and high production value. It was praised widely and even attracted the attention of well-known celebrities. Because Howard Simmons, The Post’s managing editor at the time, used it as the identity for the undercover informant, it was brought up during the Watergate scandal.
Behind the Green Door (1972)
The 1970s pornographic film Behind the Green Door was directed by brothers Artie and Jim Mitchell of San Francisco’s renowned O’Farrell Theatre. Marilyn Chambers and Elizabeth Knowles starred in one of the first hard-core sex scenes. The film tells the tale of a young lady who was abducted and made to engage in lesbianism, interracial sex, and a public orgy while performing live sex acts on a private stage. This video, considered one of the greatest vintage porn from the 1970s, has one of the first interracial sex scenes in American pornography.
Score (1974)
The film Score, which starred Claire Wilbur and Casey Donovan and was directed by Radley Metzger, has received praise for being one of the first seductive movies to show bisexual intercourse with stunning imagery. The off-Broadway drama Score centers on a happily married bisexual couple who are swingers and wager that they can woo a few gullible newlyweds. Pornography became more widely accepted during the ‘porno chic’ movement, which saw the release of both hardcore and softcore versions of the film.
Nine Lives of a Wet Pussy (1976)
In 9 Lives of a Wet Pussy, Abel Ferrara‘s debut feature film, the narrative of a young New York heiress and those close to her is told via a sequence of interwoven sensuous adventures. The film stars Ferrara, Pauline LaMonde, and Dominique Santos. In his debut film as a director, the filmmaker, having recently graduated from college, shows Ferrara as ‘lovingly naked’ and having intense sex with his then-girlfriend and his screenwriter’s partner across New York.
Through the Looking Glass (1976)
The film Through the Looking Glass, which has been referred to as a horror porno, blends hard-core sex and sensuality with images of tragedy and incest. The film, directed by Jonas Middleton and starring Laura Nicholson, Jamie Gillis, and Catharine Burgess, tells the story of a rich socialite who is dragged by a ghost to a sex-free purgatory and escapes her boring life. Middleton shot three separate versions of the film—two softcore and one hardcore—in order to appeal to a larger audience, which included lovers of arthouse cinema and pornography. Eileen Lottman, writing under the pen name Molly Flute, extended the movie script into a novel.
Body Love (1978)
Lasse Braun‘s pornographic film Body Love from the 1970s has Glenda Farrel, Michael Caputo, and Catherine Ringer in leading roles. Her father gives his 18-year-old daughter the all-clear to become a virgin during an orgie later that day. Later on in the movie, she comes out as a lesbian, and there are explicit scenes of lesbian intercourse. The movie’s fame was aided by its seductive music as well as its overall quality.
Love Inferno (1977)
In Lasse Braun‘s pornographic film Love Inferno from the 1970s, a family conflict that goes tragically wrong is the subject matter. Catherine Ringer‘s character Monique (Lolita Da Nova) is the main focus of the picture, which also has hard-core sex scenes and stars Dominique Pascal and Glenda Farrel.
Sensations (1975)
Our last choice for the list is Sensations, a 1970s pornographic film written and directed by Veronique Monod and starring Lasse Braun. In the film, two girls who go to Amsterdam in pursuit of pleasurable experiences are portrayed by Brigett Maier and Monod. It’s described as “a controversial art gallery of atmospheric sex situations” and “ahead of its time.” The film, the first European pornographic picture to gain popularity in America, was played at the Cannes film festival and ran full-page ads in New York City newspapers.
