Biography

Pornographer Carter Stevens (born Malcom Stephen Worob) rates highly as one of the true founding fathers of 1970s American East Coast adult cinema. He grew up in the suburbs in the 1950s, and studied Photographic Science at the Rochester Institute of Technology. He first became interested in making feature films while working as a supervisor at a New York City movie lab. Stevens made his film debut with the tongue-in-cheek romp The Collegiates (1973) in 1972. A majority of his 1970s porno features tend to be lighthearted and mildly comic in tone, while his 1980s films are often darker and more serious. In addition to being a director and producer he acted in numerous X-rated pictures, using the alias Steven Mitchell; he was usually partnered with actress Marlene Willoughby. Among the famous hardcore thespians he worked with during his career are Serena, Jamie Gillis, Harry Reems, Georgina Spelvin, Eric Edwards, Marc Stevens, and Robert Kerman. Stevens reinvented himself in the early 1980s as the editor/publisher of "The S&M News," which was the third-largest fetish paper in America. He largely retired from the porn industry in the late 1990s. More recently he did interviews and commentaries on DVD releases of his movies. He was given a lifetime achievement award in directing porno films from the Free Speech Coalition in 2004, and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame on January 10, 2009. - IMDb mini biography by: woodyanders

The Dark Side of Porn: Does Snuff Exist?
7.4

BBC look at whether or not Snuff films really exist. Snuff as defined by the FBI and the film is a film that shows some one being killed which was produced for gratification of the viewer who pays to see the film. The film takes a look at the start of the rumors of snuff films, the latching on by exploitation producers and how the ability of anyone to shoot video with things such as mobile phones and put them up on the Internet have made the existence of a such a film likely. A very good very reasoned film that isn't really that graphic (at least with actual footage) the film looks at the subject with filmmakers and law enforcement officials and relates the chilling tales of the people who actually set out to make a film for themselves. The key element is the profit motive since its clear that killers and other people have been using home video equipment to record their nasty deeds, we just don't know if money has changed hands. A film to make you think.
