Hollyweird (2020) - full transcript

[eerie vocalizing]

[soft foreboding music]

[thunder crackling]

[dark foreboding music]

- [Warren] Hollywood:
deep, dark.

That source of
infinite entertainment,
wonder and mystery.

Home for the
beautiful, the ugly,

the rich, the poor
and the weird.

In the following film, you will experience individuals

whose lives dwell beyond the boundaries of understanding

and may appear unusual,
freaky and bizarre.



Man is an animal of compassion and evolution.

What we don't understand
we can learn from.

What you're about to see is an eye-opening journey

into the underbelly
of Hollywood.

Porn stars, freakshows, transvestites and fire eaters

exist among the rich and famous

as an integral part of the entertainment industry.

These are the underdogs, the unsung heroes of the business.

Join our host Dark Infinity as we begin our journey

at the California Institute for Abnormal Arts

where Carl Crew gives a tour of many of the freaks

and oddities that await you behind their alluring doors.

Welcome to "Hollyweird."

- My name's Carl Crew
and I am a writer,



an actor, producer and
do a mean soft shoe

and many, many things.

I was a mortician.

I had an antique store
in Haight-Ashbury.

Basically I grew up in a
repertory theater group

from a kid 'til I was like 20 for like 17 years.

And I studied film and I decided to move to Hollywood.

And I got down here.

Six months later, I got my firstlead role in "Blood Diner."

And I actually met

one of the producers, Bill Osco

who was famous for
such wonderful hits

as "Alice in Wonderland: X," which was really R back then.

And "Flesh Gordon".

He was like 23 and he made like 23 million dollars

like 50 years ago.

I mean you know what
kinda money that is?

He moved into the
Bee Gees mansion.

You know, like wow.

Anyway, so we started
makin' movies together.

I did one more movie with

Jackie Kong and Bill Osco.

They were married.

It was called "The
Under Achievers."

Originally "Night School," but they had to change the name.

But my costar Rick
Burkes, brilliant actor.

Fantastic.

He was "Blood Diner."

We got two little roles
in "Under Achievers."

And then I started
writing, producing

and making my own
films with Bill Osco.

"Gross Out," "Urban Legends," "Lunch with Larry."

And we were talking
on the phone one night

and he's going, "You know what?

"You look exactly
like Jeffrey Dahmer."

I'm like, "I'm gonna punch you."

And then I go, "Huh."

And then I literally
got on the computer

and I found the police
interviews with Jeffrey

and I wrote the script

for "Jeffrey Dahmer:
The Secret Life."

And we immediately got funding for that and we did it.

We did it in secret.

That's what I told
the trades, you know.

I said, "We're shooting
this in secret."

And my fax machine explodedwith 20,000 faxes in one month.

Literally, there was a puff of smoke coming from it.

If you ever wanna do something and get it out there,

you tell people you're doing this part in secret

for whatever reason andeveryone go out and talk to you.

But that got a lotta press.

It never was released
in the theaters though.

It just went straight to video,

but we had just a lotta,
lotta, lotta pressure.

We did "Maury Povich" and we did "Milwaukee's Talking."

I literally got interviewed

at Jeffrey Dahmer's
apartment door

and I reached out
and touched the door.

Next day the papers, "Oh
yeah, that Carl Crew.

"He made love to
Jeffrey Dahmer's door."

I'm like, "Wow, this is
hilarious publicity."

The director was pissed.

He was like, "No,
that's terrible."

I go, "Relax.

"Publicity's publicity."

Then when we did
"Milwaukee's Talking,"

the family would
kind of, you know.

Of course a movie's
gonna be made

about one of the most
heinous serial killers.

So like we settle them down.

By the time we got
to "Maury Povich,"

they had whipped
'em into a frenzy.

So it was the "Barbecue Carl Crew Show." [chuckles]

Which I'm a debater
and I loved it.

But I got called Jeffrey
Dahmer number two

you know, and all this stuff.

Actually I have a
Facebook page Facebook.

It's called "Jeffrey
Dahmer: The Secret Life"

and it's about the film

and the archived "Maury
Povich" is on there.

If you want a cheap
thrill. [chuckles]

But then I got
involved with making.

Well I got involved
with Chris Miller.

We did a bunch of films together, not lead roles.

I've always had lead roles.

But for a while I was
so busy with this club

we've had for 25 years,

California Institute
of Abnormal Arts.

We're still here after 25 years.

Freakshows, magic
shows, puppet shows.

We have a museum.

We're in the Ripley's
hardback book last year

because I have three dead bodies from 100 years ago.

I used to be a mortician.

I lived in a mortuary for five years and I know the rules.

Pre-1925, I don't need a permit.

So I have a dead clown and two dead Chinese magicians.

Yup.

[Dark Infinity speaking faintly]

I'm sorry? - Freakshow in St. Louis?

- Say again?

- [Dark Infinity] "Freakshow: Los Angeles" the book.

- Oh, that was a
book that got ruined.

This is the original book, okay?

And it's 500 pages.

It's full color and this
guy did a deal with me.

He's like, "Yeah, we're gonna publish this book."

And he put it down to 200 pages

and he screwed it all
up and made blank pages

so you could write notes
like what are you doing?

And finally his
company went bankrupt

and I got my rights back.

It was ridiculous.

I was furious when I saw it.

But yeah, this is
literally about 18 years

of all the press, all the publicity, the whole story.

Every freakshow picture,

every flyer ever
designed from 25 years.

Hold on.

I'll wait for this to go by.

Oh, it's good.

Anyway, yeah.

So I did it on CreateSpace and we got like 300 copies

and it cost me $39
a book to print.

And we had to sell it
for like $45, you know?

It's like a textbook.

But I got the deal with Amazon.

They go, "Oh yeah, we'll
give you some money

"for every book."

I go, "Really, how much?"

Goes, "A penny."

I'm like, "No."

The club started here and we got some really amazing people

attracted to their club.

A friend of mine was a
producer and he goes,

"Dude, I have to
show you something."

And I said, "What?"

He showed me this DVD of a thing

called "Happy Turkey Day" with Shaye Saint John

and it literally blew my mind.

I didn't know what
I was lookin' at

and I said, "I have
to meet this person.

"Whoever these people are, I have to meet them."

So he gave me Eric's number and I called him up.

And we struck it off
and he came over here

and he introduced me
to Shaye Saint John

who was [exhales]

an enigma.

They were two separate
people, Eric and Shaye.

I worked with them
both for 10 years.

Shaye was a handicapped.

Well she was in a train wreck.

She was put into a
military hospital.

And they have been doing all this MKUltra stuff there

and they thought
they killed her.

They did the most implantation they've ever done on anybody.

There were cool
people in the hospital

that snuck her out and
hid her in an art colony

and that's where my
friend Eric met her.

And so he would
bring her over here

and we would give her some props and wigs and whatever

and set her up with some.

Very hard to talk to her.

She talked like this,
[imitates Shaye].

I mean it was like [sighs]

and she wore a wig
mask over her face.

When go into a wig store,

the same face that's on all the wigs, that was her face.

In other words, she
bought 100 of those

'cause she was disfigured.

I've never seen her face and I worked with her for 10 years.

No one has ever saw her face.

She was in a wheelchair.

She had to have her
arms and legs amputated

because of the lack of flow of blood or whatever.

And she didn't want prosthetics,

so she used mannequin
arms and legs.

She was just a movie star.

She thought she
was a movie star.

It was like so bizarre.

I was in horror and roaring with laughter for 10 years.

Eventually my friend Eric drank himself to death.

He just died.

Yeah.

And then everyone
said, "Oh, RIP Eric.

"RIP Shaye," 'cause everyone thought he played Shaye.

Well I waited three years

and then I made a little tiny movie with Larry Wessel

and it's called "Shaye Saint John: Trigger Happy"

and it tells the real story.

Shaye is still alive.

She's in a witness
protection program.

The people that snuck
her out of the hospital,

they knew that Eric was dying

and they made a deal
with him to help him.

If he could do one
Shaye Saint John video

making it look like
he played Shaye,

so she could escape into a witness protection program.

I mean this is 10 years.

It's the weirdest
stuff I've ever.

You could get it or you could order "Triggers" compilation

on the Internet.

And these are the early Shayes, we used to do 'em here

and then Eric would
render his stuff.

It would take weeks to do

'cause it'd be back
in the day, you know?

Like before 2000 or right around 2000, very primitive.

Like you'd do like 10 minutes and render it for two weeks.

You know, it's crazy.

But he would come
here and drop them off

and we would screen them here.

We were the first people to show Shaye Saint John.

And people would just walk out goin', "What did I just see?"

So great.

It added to the whole mystery of the institute.

Before she left,
I talked to her.

I said, "You know, if you ever just call me sometime

"and make sure you
know, you're okay,

"I wanna know you're okay."

I said, "But when you
do, say this word."

I said the word and
she said, "Look, man."

That wasn't the word,
that's how she was.

And 3 1/2 years later, I got a call from a restricted number

and I heard, "Hello again."

There's been other people that have tried to call

and say, "Yeah, it's Shaye."

"Okay, what's the word?"

No one could say it.

I heard it three
o'clock in the morning.

I said, "You're okay," and she goes, "I'm okay."

And that was it,
click and that was it.

So I know she made it.

I know she's out
there somewhere,

but I just hope she comes back.

I don't know how weird it's gonna be without Eric

to do his brilliant editing on.

But yeah, that was really an amazing part of my life.

They wrote an article.

They just came out
with a huge article.

She got pressed all over the world: "Bizarre" magazine.

"Girls and Corpses" interviewed her here in person

and that was weird.

She made a couple appearances here and sign stuff

with her rubber hands.

It was so bizarre.

Well "Vice" magazine just came out with a huge article

on Shaye Saint John and
they interviewed people.

There was this woman
named Leonora Claire.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous chanteuse and an art critic.

She's actually in
the news right now.

She got stalkers and she
got legislation passed

for stalking.

It was really good.

It's just that
she's on the news.

But she used to come
and do these shows

at Apocalipstick
with Kitten Natividad

and they had Shaye show up.

She signed stuff.

She was chosen by the people

that wanted to help Shaye escape as the person

that would see a fake costume draped over her chair.

So she'd say, "Eric is Shaye."

So it was orchestrated that

and I just recently
told her that.

I never even told her that.

So she was the one.

So in the article
from "Vice" magazine,

"Oh yeah, that's right."

Then they interviewed me

and I was like, "No, that's not it." [chuckles]

Anyway it was just wonderful.

It was wonderful to be involved

with such electric
burst of creative energy

and he was a maximalist artist.

That's what I am.

I'm a maximum.

Why bother with being
anything else, you know?

My great uncle was Jerry Crew.

Jerry Crew was a logger.

Along with my father
and my other uncle,

Jerry Crew took the first plaster cast of Bigfoot

in 1958 on Mount Shasta and literally changed the name

from Sasquatch to Bigfoot with his discovery.

He took it to the Humboldt Times

and they took a picture
of him holding the cast.

It went worldwide.

This is 1958.

Yeah.

So in the
crypto-zoological world,

all the people that
do all this stuff,

they all know who Jerry Crew is.

He's like the grandfather,

even though Bigfoot went
back hundreds of years

with sightings of wild men.

But I've been doing research and writing a script

about the life of Jerry Crew,

interviewing everyone
who's left alive.

Like I interviewed Peter Byrne.

He's like 90 years old.

He hunted the Yeti
in the Himalayas

and he was hired by an amazing guy named Tom Slick

from Texas who
was a millionaire.

These people, I mean like they described Peter Byrne

as the Don Quixote,
Indiana Jones.

I mean this guy went out.

I mean amazing books by this guy

and I interviewed him few times.

Amazing stuff I got outta him.

So my other uncle who wasthere, my father was also there.

He gave me 50 years of yellowed articles and cutouts

of Bigfoot articles that I've been pourin' through

and going through the scripts.

It's like family history.

It was amazing.

It was amazing, I'm almost finished with it too.

So yeah, that's what I've been working on lately.

I did write the sequel
to "Blood Diner"

called "Blood Dinner."

I have about 10
scripts I finished.

I'm really tryin'
to balance my time

between the club which
takes up all my time

and get back heavy
into more filmmaking.

That's what I love to do.

I just love to create
stuff, you know?

So this club has always been just constant creating stuff

and doing new stuff
and trying out stuff.

And yeah, it's been a
very interesting road.

Yeah.

- [Dark Infinity] Where do you see the future of your club?

- [laughs] I wanna
go full-heavy.

I mean I'm an artist.

You know, it's like
this is 25 years.

I think that's enough, hey.

I have no idea, I have no idea.

You know, I know
very specifically

I wanna start getting back into heavy filmmaking again

and just whatever or wherever my muse takes me.

[soft mystical music]
[singer vocalizing]

- [Dark Infinity] My next stop was a visit to a classroom.

But this isn't your
typical kind of class,

it was an outdoor one at night.

And they weren't
teaching math or physics

but rather fire eating.

Professional fire
eater Derrick Vermin

teaches classes
on a weekly basis

to those interested
in learning the craft.

He's performed at
Knotfest and Lost Lands

and worked alongside
at Dr. Phil's son.

He had a few moments betweenlessons to sit down and tell us

about what makes this a unique,

magical and one-of-a-kind skill.

- I've been a fire
performer since 2007

performing with like poets, staff, fans, things like that.

And I guess later on,

it started getting
into more of like

fire at circus performances,

then fire eating was kinda introduced to things.

It was introduced to my world.

I just kinda like jumped
in there, got into it,

tried to figure out what it was.

I knew some people in the circus world who were into it

and they introduced me to it.

I fell in love with the fire just doin' fire performance,

but I fell in love
with fire again.

Like over again even deeper once I got into fire eating.

It's just a different way of handling the fire.

It's what more people would call fire manipulation

and it's just really
controlling it

just with your mouth
and with the torches,

getting really just
up-close with the fire.

There's a breaking down
of certain fear barriers

that you go through

when you're learning to eat fire or breathe fire.

And getting past those,

just makes you feel so
different about it all.

Yeah, so it becomes a passion,

really like gets into
a passion right away.

Well the classes I'm teaching.

Well I know that fire eating has become a lot more popular

in the past five years.

Like me and a lot
of other people

have been kind of
developing it more

in the past five to 10 years

than it has in its whole lifetime of it being done.

Even hundreds of years ago, people were doin' fire eating.

But the kinda stuff
we're doin' now,

we started to like
raise the bar up.

And now because of that, it's been being seen everywhere.

A lotta people are
tryin' to get into it,

but not everybody's learning the correct way.

There's like a proper
way to go through it

that makes it fun,
makes it safe,

makes it healthy to where you're not gonna...

There's lot less chance
of you burning yourself.

And at the same time, it allows you to really expand

on all the tricks
that there are.

So I really wanna
make it accessible.

Some people are still gonna go try it in their backyard

and I don't want 'em to that.

I wanna be at least out there

so I could teach
'em the right way.

They can expand on it from there

with the other people they know that are fire eaters.

But as long as they learn the proper techniques of it

and safety, learn about thekinda fuels and stuff like that,

then hopefully they're gonna grow in a good environment.

In my hometown, I started my own kinda troupe there.

We started doin' shows, birthday parties, events,

fundraisers, then music festivals and things like that

that were goin' on
around in my town.

But then I started
getting these bookings

for outside of it too
and that really started

around the time
where I teamed up

with "Dangerous D Shock
Show" to go to Knotfest.

And I ended up doin'
that two years.

I've done some other
shows like that too

like Blackest of the Black and also Lost Lands

which was out there in Ohio.

And then even got
booked for a show doing

Dr. Phil's son Jordan, his dirty-30 birthday party.

I went and performed for that.

And so like I've taken
the whole fire eating

and breathing thing
to lotta different

big music festivals
and private parties.

And so that's what I've been doing with it, yeah.

- [Dark Infinity] So what does the future hold for you then?

- Oh, the future?

You know, I would love to be able to either be part of

or to start my own
kinda performance troupe

where we really
push the boundaries

of the artistic side of it all.

I think that's my goal.

I mean like goin' to
these festivals and
doin' these things,

it feels more like
I'm out there.

It like an ambiance, like just in the background

kinda doin' these things.

But like I really wanna
create like a showcase

for displaying the
real art behind it.

Like fire eating
and these things

are kind of like half magic,half flow and half performance.

It's already known that people can do fire eating,

but I wanna show what kind of magical performance

you can do with it.

And I wanna be able to
create a venue for that

or to be part of that.

And then to see more
people involved in that

and try to get more
people to connect to it,

getting real just like
deep in the musicality

of the fire art itself
and the performance.

You know, it's just a
crazy thing to see that

you're takin' this
element of fire.

And it's already within
us to draw away from it

and to not have it
anywhere near us

and for it to just
exist how it is

and for it to be something

that we almost see as
kind of uncontrollable.

But through fire eating and other fire manipulation arts,

we're learning
the science of it,

the nature on how it works

and being able to
manipulate that.

So some of the things
that we're doing

where we're not just
eating the fire,

not just putting
it in our mouth.

But we're taking it and now it's burning the vapor

and we're able to just let fire come out of our mouth.

It's something that
when anybody sees that

that hasn't seen it before.

They're just like, "Wait, how is that happening?

"How is that possible?"

It's really just
the science of it

and there's no real
magic trick to it.

Lotta people talk about magic as there being a trick,

some sorta deception behind it.

But with fire eating,
there are no tricks.

It just is literally
what we're doin'.

You're seeing fire
come outta your mouth

and it's not supposed
to be something

that's supposed to be there.

But we're able to
just control it

and that becomes
the magic behind it.

[rhythmic electro music]

♪ Ready

- I'm Derrick Vermin
and I eat fire.

[eerie laughing]

- [Dark Infinity] In Hollywood, horror is hot.

So we couldn't pass
up an opportunity

to catch up with horror hostess

Malvolia: the Queen of Screams.

- Good evening, my victims.

For those of you
who do not know me,

I'm Malvolia: the
Queen of Screams.

[thunder crackling]

Hi everyone, my name
is Jennifer Nangle

and I am the creator and actress

of "Malvolia: Queen of Screams."

To be honest with you,

I never wanted to
be a horror hostess.

This was never in the plans.

Filmmaking was
never in the plans.

Basically what happened was about almost four years ago,

there was a film franchise that was released

with a woman's name in the title

and I had noticed that it had always had male directors.

Then usually the
female lead was always

like a victim of some sort,

so I wanted to be a
part of this franchise

and be a female director.

Also have a female voice

and maybe have a lead female badass you know, fight back.

So I wrote "The Treatment" and I sent it off to the creator

and he politely declined it.

But one of the producers
who had read it

really encouraged
me to pursue my idea

'cause he thought that it was really interesting.

So not being under
the film franchise

and the restrictions of it,

I knew I still wanted to keep

that badass female
lead character.

But I wanted to
go in a direction

where I could talk
about a horror genre

that wasn't being
talked about very much.

So a couple months later, I went to Son of Monsterpalooza

and that was the year that they were celebrating Elvira.

And I was so amazed

at her current popularity.

I mean she was famous
back in the 80s.

I mean it's been several decades

and yet there were
crazy amounts of people

waiting in line for her,

just to only have
two minutes with her.

Just to say, "Hi, how are you?"

Take a quick picture, get a signature and that was it.

My mind was blown
over that situation.

So I thought okay,
horror hosting.

You know, nobody's
talking about it.

That could definitely have

obviously a strong
female character,

so that's what I wanted to have my feature film be about.

I stand corrected now.

I understand that
there are still

many, many horror hosts and hostesses across the nation,

if not worldwide,
still on public access,

still hosting you know, films and stuff like that.

But at the time, I had no idea.

So I got to researching.

I went down the
route of the original

who I think is one of the original horror hostesses.

I started researching Vampira.

And I know that one of her icons

or who she was
referencing off of

was Morticia Addams
and the Addams Family.

So I took a little bit ofVampira, little bit of Morticia,

luckily found this
dress on Amazon Prime

and got to tryin' to figure out

what I wanted to do
with the character.

So while I was writing
the feature film,

I was super huge and a fan of "Blair Witch Project"

and how they you know,
put their film out.

They made it that it was real.

And so I kinda wanted
to go that route

and make this character real.

I also thought that if
I had a stable fan base

when I was done with
the feature film,

I would already
have that fan base.

I would already
have that numbers

and it would be easier
for distribution.

So my boyfriend and I, we came up with some press pictures.

I reached out to
some horror bloggers.

And on January 1st of 2017,

I released the iconic picture where my hands are up

and we have the teal-green background with the curtains.

People went crazy. [chuckles]

They went crazy for her.

They didn't know
anything about her.

I just denounced her name and the Queen of Screams

which is a play on
of "Scream Queen."

People were like,
"Wow, she's solid.

"She's strong."

And so then I realized

I really had to get cracking on this web series

to make her real, so we could do the feature film.

But what happened was the more episodes I was putting out

as the web series on you know,

the easiest platform
you can on YouTube

'cause you already have an audience built right there,

people just couldn't get enough.

They just wanted more
and more and more.

And so I realized you know,

I couldn't kill her
off in a feature film.

I had to keep going with this.

So here I am [chuckles]

on the verge of possibly
moving into season four

and I'm currently writing an "Origins" feature film script.

Basically when we were
doing the web series

which was the first time that I was doing the hosting,

we film in my living room.

So here I was at
home, we put up a set.

We used the curtains.

A friend of mine,

he donated his short
film that I could host.

And one of the
producers at the time,

he wrote the script
for the first episode.

And I was not
necessarily nervous

because I was
working with friends.

But the dialog that we
first started out with

was very intimidating

and it was really difficult for me to memorize.

So I just wanted to make sure that I got all the words out

properly and easily, just flowing off the tongue.

And so I believe we shot two or three episodes at one time.

So yeah and it's on YouTube.

First episode of season one,

so that was my first
hosting experience.

So some of the projects that

I have been involved in

as Malvolia: the Queen ofScreams is 1031 and 1031 part 2.

Both of those are available through Scream Team Releasing.

Basically I just host in the beginning and at the end.

I also did host "Theater
of the Deranged Part 3"

which is available on Troma Now.

I obviously have my
own YouTube channel.

I have three seasons on there.

There's a mixture of hosting independent horror short films

and there's also skits that we do of the character.

Because again, acting
is my base and my love.

And also other projects that I have out right now

is Dustin Ferguson's
"The Last Roommate."

It's kind of like
"Single White Female"

meets really creepy
[chuckles] characters.

And so that was a
huge experience.

I know starting out 2020,

I wanted to have
a challenging role

that would take me
outta my comfort zone

and maybe people might've not seen me in that light.

And let me tell you,
"The Last Roommate" hit

every single one of those requests that I had,

so I'm done with 2020 with all the challenges. [chuckles]

So any advice that I can give anybody that wants to either

horror host

or get into filmmaking
is just do it.

You know, be creative,
think outside the box,

pick up that camera
and just do it.

A lotta people never get started

and that's because
of a lotta fear,

fear of failure or fear of success, whatever it is.

That's what always holds
a lotta people back.

There really is no
excuse not to do

what you wanna do nowadays.

I mean we all have you know, cameras on our phones.

We all have DSLRs.

I mean you know,

anything that seems to be a device has a camera on it.

So there's no reason
not to pick it up

and you know, just be
creative and experiment.

Not everything's
gonna be perfect.

Not everything is gonna go the way that you want it to go

and sometimes those are
blessing in disguises.

You know, you can do
so much pre-production

and hope that
everything is gonna fit

the way that it needs to fit.

But when you get on set youknow, you might run out of time.

You know, this one setup
might've not worked

at this one location
that you had.

So you gotta think
outside the box

and just go with what you have and what you know.

And then usually everything always works out for the best.

So stay positive, stay hopeful and then just do it.

- [Dark Infinity] In the 1980s,

breakdancing was all
the rage in Florida

and Southern California.

It was a popular style

that would soon spread
across the country

thanks to the nationwide successof movies like "Breakin'."

One of the original pioneers of the genre is a man

who goes by the name
The Egyptian Lover.

He's released breakdance and electro music consistently

since he took the scene by storm

back in 1982 in
Uncle Jamm's Army.

I've had the pleasure of working with him in the past

on a music video I directed for his 2014 single

"Freaky Deaky Machine."

Today, he's pairing
his new album 1986

and we were able to catch up with him outside the studio

for an intimate discussionabout his very prolific career.

- Think my older brother
and my older sister

inspired me to make music

'cause they were always
listenin' to music.

They loved music.

I remember my sister
goin' to a club

one time comin' home sayin', "We heard this record,

"but it was a long version

"of a sheet song called
"Dance Dance Dance."

She went out and bought it the next day and played it.

I'm like, "Wow, I wanna
be in that club life."

Then I saw a movie called "Thank God It's Friday."

The deejay was in the
movie was just so cool.

It was like the prettiest girl that came in the club.

It was like the other
guy was bettin' him.

"Betcha can't get her."

Blah, blah blah and
he was the deejay.

Of course the deejay
get all the girls.

I'm like, "I'm gonna be
a deejay." [chuckles]

So I wanted to be a deejay,

but I didn't know
how to make music.

But I knew what records
to play at the party.

So by being a deejay, I knew what records to play,

what breakdowns to play and what got the party hot.

But my younger brother X-fion played music and wrote music.

He was a saxophone player and he used to write music.

I was really impressed.

And he saw me listen' to "Mary Jane" by Rick James one day.

He said, "That's
a nice bass line."

And I'm like, "What
are you talkin' about?"

He said, "You hear
the bass line?"

I'm like, "Listen to
the words, Mary Jane."

He said, "Start it over and only listen to the bass line."

So I started it over, only listened to the bass line

and I was like, "Wow, that's a nice bass line."

He said, "Start it over again, only listen to the strings."

So I started it over again and only listened to the strings

and the song just
came alive to me.

He said, "Keep startin' it over

"and every time you start over,

"listen to somethin' different."

So the next time
I start it over,

I went and listened to the drums

and I heard different things with the drums and the feels.

And I'm like.

So I broke the whole song apart piece-by-piece

by listenin' to it over and over again, every part.

And that when I
went to the studio,

it taught me how to put together a song part-by-part

by my younger brother teaching me how to listen to a song.

So actually I owe my whole career to my younger brother.

Thanks, little brother.

The name Egyptian Lover,

the Egyptian part
came from King Tut

who was a young king
who ran his own empire.

I wanna be like a young man who had his own business

and run my own empire.

And the lover came from a 20.

Let's see, silent filmmaker.

Think it was from the
1920s, I'm not sure.

His name was Rudolf Valentino

and I saw one of his movies called "The Sheik."

When they put the
lights on his eyes

and he looked at the women, he was just like the lover.

I was like, "Wow, I would love to be somethin' like that."

So I got King Tut and Rudolf Valentino together.

Egyptian Lover, that this is a man who's also a lover

and that's where
the name came from.

I think the best memories are the very beginning

when I was with Uncle
Jamm's Army back in '83.

We used to get
parties just deejays

givin' parties at
the LA Sports Arena

with 10,000 party people.

And it was just unbelievable, all the speakers.

We had a couple hundred survey speakers just bumpin'.

And the biggest highlight

is when I brought
my 808 to the first.

Actually to the last Uncle Jamm's Army party we gave,

I brought the 808 drum machine

and nobody knew what a drum machine was back in '83.

So I was playin' "Planet Rock" with my own breakdown.

I turned the volume
down on "Planet Rock"

and played the 808 drum machineand everybody kept dancin'.

So I was like I got 'em.

They're dancin'
to a drum machine.

Then I turned the hi-hats up, then I turned the cowbell up.

Then the room shot up.

Now they're just dancin' to nothin' but a drum machine.

They didn't stop dancin', just kept dancin'.

So then I was kinda nervous.

Okay, I'm gonna change the beat.

Then I changed the beat,

so they want boom,
boom, boom, boom.

Just want [imitates
rhythmic drums],

so it was a little
different beat.

I changed the beat
and they kept dancin'.

I was nervous as hell,

like I hope they dance
to this drum machine

and they kept dancin'.

And I heard one slut scream up, "What song is that?"

As soon as he said it
back, I said, "I got 'em

"if he's not playin' records."

So then I started breakin' the beat down 808,

turnin' the toms up [imitates rhythmic drums].

Turnin' to the cowbell.

Doin' different cowbell rhythms[imitates rhythmic cowbell].

You know, just goin'
crazy with 808.

Turnin' the bass up a little bit from boom, boom

to the [imitates
rhythmic booming].

And the crowd's
just goin' crazy.

They kept sayin', it's
hard to change the beat.

"Man, what songs
are you playin'?

"What songs are you playin'?

"C'mon, man.

"Tell us, tell us."

So then the owner of Uncle Jamm's Army ran up on stage

said, "Man, what
songs are those?

"Those are hot."

I said, "It's the drum machine."

He said, "What?"

I said, "It's this
drum machine."

He looked at it and he's like,

"You tellin' me you
brought a drum machine?"

I'm like, "What?

"It sounds just like a record."

He said, "We need
to make a record."

So we went to the studio

and we met the big star playin'at the club, at the party.

"Yes, Yes, Yes" when we made a new song called [indistinct],

put that out and that was, man.

That's fortunately in a show

when the drum machine personified the hybrid model.

The next project I'm workin' on.

Workin' on two
projects right now.

Pyramix Volume 2,
which I'm doin'

a lotta remixes from old songs

like "Girls" and "You're So Fine" and "Egypt Egypt."

Doin' new mixes of the old songs

and also adding some new songs

that didn't make 1986.

I mean this song that made 1986

which is another
project I'm workin' on.

I did 1984, I did 1985 and now I'm workin' on 1986

which'll probably be
out at the end of 2020

or by Valentine Day 2021.

Pyramix will probably
come out early 2020.

Man, if you haven't
heard Pyramix #1,

make sure you listen to that.

Then Pyramix 2 will
be just like that,

but probably two hours
of music nonstop.

So I don't know if I'm gonna do a vinyl on that,

but we're thinkin' about it.

Maybe some 12 inches from that.

But you'll definitely see a two hour nonstop mixtape

from the Egyptian
Lover called Pyramix 2,

so make sure you check that out.

And to my fans: Man, thank you for all around the world

just comin' to the
parties, the festivals

and just showin' your support.

'Cause all the energy you give me, I give it right back.

Soon as I go back to the hotel,

I'm inspired to
write more music.

It's just a vicious circle,

just me gettin' the
energy from you,

you givin' it back to me and me givin' it back to you

and you givin' it back
to me and I love it.

Thank you.

- This shit ain't over.

This shit ain't over, y'all.

Put your motherfuckin'
hands up one time.

Yeah.

[rhythmic hip-hop music]

Please start it like you do in the early stages, 1983.

We make music that is
satisfying to the soul.

That shit got right here.

Listen to this shit.

Listen, listen.

Here we go.

[mystical hip-hop music]

♪ You're so fine

- Then again.

- We love you.

- Thank y'all.

- Goodnight.

- [Dark Infinity] Our next stop on this journey

through Hollyweird

takes us to the home
of famed adult actress

and webcam model Alana Evans.

Known for her work in the adult field most of her life,

she's additionally sang
for the Lords of Acid

and recently began acting in mainstream horror films.

Tonight, she discusses
her role as an advocate

and the positive change shehopes to bring to the industry.

- Hi, I'm Alana Evans.

I am a porn star turned
webcammer. [chuckles]

I've been in the adult
industry since 1998,

always did films.

I've been a big gamer.

So I found ways to incorporate different aspects

of my real life into my career.

You know, have fun while you'remaking your money, right?

But as technology changes, porn has changed so, so much.

The people are different, the sets are different.

The type of content that they're filming is different.

It's a little bit more violent.

It's more aggressive.

That's not my bag, it
never really has been.

And so as the industry changed

you know, I moved into more of an advocacy role.

But with that, who's going to hire you when you're the one

telling everybody how
to do things safely?

You're a risk.

So I found my way
into webcamming

because I could completely set my own rules,

control what I do,
what kinda content,

what kinda shows I'm doing and I control my room.

And man, once you
get that sensation

of being completely in charge,

there's kind of no going back.

I am very lucky because
I have the fanbase

that automatically brings people into my room.

You know, people come in.

They can't believe
they're talking to me.

It's the cutest thing.

It's great for my ego.

Let's be real, this is one-on-one, instant reaction.

Whereas a porn star when
I started in the 90s,

the Internet didn't
exist like that at all.

Nobody trusted it.

Porn sites didn't exist.

And so there wasn't any
instant gratification

like there is now
meaning I film a movie,

I'm gonna wait six months beforemaybe it hits the shelves.

And then you'll go to a trade show six months later.

Maybe a few people
know who you are.

And then maybe the next year,

you got a line around the cornerand you've got legit fans.

But it took work,
it took fan clubs.

Now social media, webcamming.

The Internet
changed, everything.

You can take pictures
up of yourself,

build your own little fan page and you're a superstar

and in the matter of minutes

without filming
one actual movie.

And webcamming is no different.

I can be one-on-one
with that fan

who's having their own carved intimate experience with me.

At that point, I'll
give them control

because I'm still the
only one touching me.

I'm the only one
interacting with myself

and my physical being, you know?

I'm safe.

I'm not gonna get sick.

I'm gonna have fun
[chuckles] on my terms.

And you know, in that moment when the show's over

and they're throwing
money at you

or they're leaving
these amazing reviews,

you know right then and there

how happy you just
made that fan.

And now they're gonna
be a fan for life.

They're gonna buy
all your content.

They're gonna go to
all your social media.

They're gonna come
to your cam room

again and again and again

and that totally beats that waiting period, you know?

Even now though, it's still instant with the other girls

being able to do porn.

It's really quick.

But when you're on set, it's still incredibly different

and far more difficult

being the president of the Adult Performers Actors Guild.

We're the union for porn
performers, webcammers,

content producers, phone
sex operators, texters

because we all work in the same fields, you know?

If you do one thing, chances are you're doing everything.

And so for us, it
just made sense

to be able to streamline all of that into one place

and a big part of our membership is webcam models.

Something else that
we're dealing with

is a new law in
California called AB 5

and it is basically
a court decision

about independent contractor status versus employee status

that is making many people that were originally

independent contractors, freelance workers employees.

And you know, it works great for porn performers.

It's totally necessary so they have workers compensation

when they're on set because they are at risk.

You know, accidents happen.

People fall. [laughs]

I have fallen off of a stool

with a dildo attached
to the middle of it

and hit my face on the
floor on my way down.

I know girls that have
fallen outta chairs

and hit their jaw on the floor and it broke in three places.

Like workers compensation is important in that life.

Can you imagine me being an employee from right here?

This is my bed.

That's my shelf. [chuckles]

That's my ceiling fan.

If it falls off, it
decapitates me. [laughs]

My homeowners
insurance covers that.

It's kind of my fault.

So the idea of just something making us employees

inside of our own homes isgonna cost the webcam companies

a lotta money.

And there are
benefits to it, sure.

We would get to
keep all of our tips

'cause in the state
of California,

an employee can't take them.

And as a webcam model,

for many of the sites what the viewers at home don't realize

if we're lucky, we only take home 32% of that tip.

It means the rest of the 68% that you just gave us

'cause we gave you
a really great show

just went to the company owners

and that's a hard pill to swallow for a lotta girls.

I totally get that.

I feel it because it's the same

on all of those
platforms we work for.

But instead of complying
with what is now the law

as of January 1st, 2020, the companies are firing girls.

When you're Uber or Lyft, if you fire your drivers,

you don't have
business in that state

'cause you physically
absolutely need them.

You can't outsource
to a driver in Nevada

because they have to be here.

But when you're a cam company,

that's exactly what you can do.

You can shut off
access to those states

and basically fire your
models across the board

and that's what's happening.

And you know,

my organization supported AB 5

with the idea that
porn performers were
gonna be employees

because that's what
needed to happen.

And now that it's causing my friends to lose their jobs

because it affected people that no one understood,

there was no mention of it until what, December 6, 2019?

So couple weeks before
Christmas, girls
are gettin' fired.

No idea how they're gonna pay their rent come February

because they can't log in.

It's crazy.

So moving forward, there has been talks of a cleanup bill.

And you know, I
can't sleep at night.

It's a real thing that's
happening right now.

And I know that this isn't my fault, I get that.

But it's still hard to not feel as if I was a part of it,

especially because
they didn't understand

how it was going to
affect my own job.

We're talking about how
I pay my bills here.

And so I immediately
jumped to the ground.

We contacted the California Labor Federation

which is the union of all unions in California.

They had a meeting with us.

We brought webcam performers,

discussed the concerns
and what our fears were

and they immediately told us about the cleanup bill

that is working to
create exemptions

for people being affected in ways like my entire workforce

and I'm really excited
because at this point,

this is where I realize that

all the hard work that I've put into the union thus far

is completely paying off.

We already have a meeting set with the author of AB 5

because I know her personally

and she's already
spoken to the people

with California
Labor Federation.

And at this point,
completely understood

where we were coming
from was disappointed

that this is how
it's turning out

and agreed that she would make exemptions for our workforce.

So I'm really
thankful about that.

It's an odd position
for me to be in

where one side of my workers absolutely need this law

and it's important for them

and then the other
side of my workers

it just doesn't make sense for.

And so, from that point, it's going to the cam companies.

It's talking to them
about these tip levels.

Because the other reality is this law right now

basically means that every single cam performer

in the state of
California can sue

every single webcam company that they've worked for

for backpay and tips and lost revenue since April of 2018.

That's a lotta money.

And it gives us bargaining power

to have discussions about cutting those tips,

giving girls more of the money

that they're actually
earning for themselves.

Because as it is, they still only see 32% of that

you know, per-minute fee that they're getting anyway.

So camming has been a
very crazy world for me.

I got into it because it was fun and I enjoyed it.

I play video games
while I webcam.

That's a big part of what I do.

So for me, it's all about the entertainment side of it

as well.

But I certainly never thought that I would find myself

in a position here where
I'm fighting legislation

for my job, to save our jobs

and to try to bring
the work back.

Because I'm pretty sure
that when you know,

Lorena Gonzalez
offered this bill,

she didn't expect that people would get fired over it.

I think it's really important for the fans to speak out,

get involved, ask questions of the companies

that you're giving
your money to.

If you start putting pressure on them about how we get paid,

you can actually help
make the changes for us.

You know, we're a
solid voice together.

We're the workers, but it'syour money that they're earning

and so are we. [chuckles]

I always encourage
everyone to vote.

I think it's the
most important thing,

especially the girls
in the industry.

If you don't pay
attention to the way

that things are changing
around the industry

that you work in, you totally will miss the boat.

And I think that's
the biggest thing,

that is the biggest lesson here

because the cam
companies had no idea

that this was happening.

They had no idea that
this was affecting them

in the way that it has.

They didn't understand
until December.

I mean let's be real,

I worked on the
legislation in a sense.

I helped, I marched, I spoke out

and even I didn't understand that it would affect

our jobs in the way that it did.

And I think it's
really important

for people to just be involved and pay attention.

A lotta girls talked about

how they had no
idea what AB 5 was,

but we've been talking about it since March. [laughs]

We've been talking about
it for what is that?

Seven, eight months before the hammer even came down

and I think that's the biggest lesson that girls learn.

You know, you can pay
attention to technology.

We all know the latest cameras that are coming out,

which one's gonna make
our skin look the best,

which light is gonna take away the most shadows.

We know every detail about that.

I could tell you exactly how to make all the programs work.

I'm a blonde.

People would assume that I'mnot that intelligent, you know?

I get it all the time.

It's totally okay. [laughs]

I think it's less
intimidating to people.

But we are our own boss.

We create the entire facade that you see as a viewer.

We put so much of our sweatand literal tears into our jobs

and I think that we
definitely deserve

the compensation for it.

We deserve the
appreciation for it.

But like I said
in the beginning:

we get it at the end
of every single show.

We know how happy they are

or if it didn't go
that well. [laughs]

Let's be real, it happens.

You don't always know.

People have odd
usernames, you know?

If you come into my room and your name is Mr. Small,

I might think that you're into small penis humiliation.

I might start
talking shit to you.

It's not my fault. [laughs]

It's happened. [chuckles]

But camming is amazing.

Unless technology changes and gives us the next new thing,

in-room VR with body
sensory technology,

then this is where
I'll be in my bedroom

on my webcam. [chuckles]

- [Dark Infinity] Next, we caught up with monster actor

Alan Maxson, who provided us with a little insight

on what it's like portraying

some of Hollywood's most
memorable creatures.

- I am a huge fan
of monster movies,

even to the point
where when I was a kid,

I wouldn't buy a VHS or a DVD

unless it had an alien or creature or monster in it.

You know, it's like movies with humans only are boring.

You know, if you're
gonna waste two hours

to escape from the
world to watch a movie,

why would you watch something that you can see in real life?

I wanna see something that I cannot see in real life

and that's where you
have monsters and aliens

and creatures and
things that are awesome

and visually
beautiful to look at.

That's what I think is cool about monster movies.

When you watch movies,

the most memorable
character to me at least

is always the
non-human character

and that's also the characters

that I wanted to have
the action figures of,

you want the poster
on your wall of.

You don't want the
human, it's boring.

And so I sought out
being a creature actor

and I do not regret it

because it is the most fun thing in the entire world

and I'm gonna keep
going until I can't.

Because man, it's awesome looking in the mirror

and seein' yourself
as a monster.

And when you're acting,

to me, it's much more fun than acting as a human

because you are otherworldly.

There's no rules to it.

You get to just let out the animal instinct in you

to bring that character to life.

It's so much fun.

I love it.

I've had a lotta very memorable roles that I love.

One of 'em is I got to playthe right head of King Ghidorah

in "Godzilla: King of the Monsters" for 2019's movie

and we did that
with motion capture.

And that one will
always stand out to me

as special in my heart

because it really
changed the game for me

and it really got a lot of attention and eyes on me

and helped me to
book future roles

because of what we
did in that film.

That one is particularly
special because

most creatures you
play by yourself,

just like any other actor.

But this one since
it had three heads,

they wanted a different personality for each head.

And so they took
three different actors

and they tied us together

and threw us in a
motion capture volume

and that's how we played it.

It was great.

It was a ton of fun and it was an experience of a lifetime.

I hope Legendary calls
us back for more.

That'd be a ton of
fun to do another one.

That one stands out to me as a very memorable experience.

And another one is actually I got to play Blade

in the "Puppet Master" film "Blade: The Iron Cross."

What they did was Tom Devlin had the regular-sized puppets

that he would puppeteer.

But then during
heavier stunt scenes

or running scenes
or full body shots,

Tom built a full suit to fit me

and they filmed me
on a green screen.

And then John
Lechago, the director,

he just composites
it into this shot

that they filmed on
set and shrank me down.

So that was awesome

'cause I've been a huge "PuppetMaster" fan my whole life.

It's just super cool to
get to play a character

that you literally had action figures of as a kid

and you watch the
movies growing up

in your living room, you know?

So that was a great
experience for me.

If anybody is interested in being a creature actor,

all I can say is just
train as an actor.

I mean it's no different.

You have to have the motivation,

you have to have the character,

you have to have a background

and you just have to
think about those things

and the script and perform it.

It has to be real and
it has to feel real.

You can't just snarl
and bite somebody.

That's not acting.

You have to have actual
thought and intentions

as your character.

So I suggest if you wanna be a creature actor,

study real acting.

Just be an actor

and train physically

because it takes a lot of endurance and strength

and just concentration
and patience

really to do creature acting.

You gotta be under a lot of heavy prosthetics and suits.

So it can be claustrophobic sometimes,

it can be hot sometimes, very uncomfortable sometimes.

So you know, just train and be physically fit and in-shape.

As an actor, I've played over I think 60 or more creatures

all under prosthetics
or makeup or suits.

That's for TV, film, commercials, music videos.

The whole kit and caboodle.

But along with being a creatureactor, I'm also a filmmaker.

I made two movies in the past.

One of them is called
"Christmas with Cookie"

and the other one
is called "Patina."

Both are available on Amazon, on streaming and Blu-ray.

So if you want to make a film,

don't be afraid to start
embarrassingly low.

Just make stuff, just do it.

Get out there.

Alan Maxson signing off.

- [Dark Infinity] In early 2018,

California legalized
recreational marijuana

in most of the state.

In a matter of days,

there were new shops
around every corner;

some even offering their
own delivery services.

Deep in Hollywood Hills
rests the High Church.

No only can you score

some of the highest-qualitymarijuana on this side of SoCal,

but they offer
spiritual awakenings

in the form of a dab
hit with any donation.

Let's take a peek inside.

Cameras, while not illegal, are forbidden by shop owners,

so we were forced
to go undercover

to bring you the insight needed

on this rapidly-growing
new industry.

Here, you could find nearly any strain you are after,

whether it's Indica for a more energetic and clear high

or Sativa for more
relaxed and calm high.

Different strains have different effects on the body.

There are many strains recommended by professionals

in this industry said to have the ability to fight anything

from minor depression, insomnia and eating disorders

to even some forms of cancer.

With new research findings being released every day,

we continue to learn more about

the many benefits of the plant

as well as the economic growth the state receives

from taxing the product.

With many other states following California's lead,

soon the days of reefer
madness should be over.

And countrywide,

it will become available to practically anyone in need.

[dark foreboding music]

After getting stoned
at the High Church,

we made one final stop
at the nursing home

of drag queen the Goddess Bunny,

a model with a very disfiguring form of polio.

She was all the rage in the late 80s and early 90s

in the Hollywood
underground scene.

Her distinct odd body structure,

combined with her sassy
wit and fun personality

made her irresistible
to fellow celebrities.

Even 90's shock
rocker Marilyn Manson

befriended the goddess,
even giving her a role

in his award-winning "The Dope Show" music video in 1998.

Today, she goes by
the name Sandie Crisp

and resides at a nursing
home in West Hollywood.

We were able to catch up with her for a few moments

and she was kind
enough to reflect

on some of her most
memorable experiences

as the reigning underground queen of entertainment.

- Well back in the early 80s,

I came to Hollywood
basically to be,

I'm out now, just a gay boy.

I was living at a home by the name of Michael Venegas.

Then a person by the
name of Jackie Sekiro,

who gave me a chair wench.

They were having a contest for Miss Gay Universe

and I started

making a dress,

trying on makeup,
learning how to do wigs.

Lo and behold, Bunny Victoria Venice was born.

- [Dark Infinity] Amazing.

- I was the first runner-up of Miss Gay Universe,

opposite Heather Fontaine

and this was back in 1981.

- [Dark Infinity] And since1981, you had quite the career.

You've done a lotta things with a lotta people.

Do you wanna tell us
about some of that?

- Well I worked

with Michael Jackson
on "Thriller."

I worked with

Marilyn Manson,

Dr. Dre,

Gloria Estefan.

I was in a play
called "Boogieman"

which was at the
LA Theater Center

and I've done odd
jobs here and there.

Last year I did a
movie called "Scumbag."

- [Dark Infinity] Wanna tell us

a little bit about that movie?

- "Scumbag" is about south central Los Angeles.

Well if you watched it,

you have to be smoking
weed to watch it

because that's the only
way it makes sense.

Basically it's about

phone callers,

people that call you
to sell you something

and what goes on in the offices

of those phone
company sorta things

and what they get away with.

- [Dark Infinity] What was your part in the film?

- Well I go to this nightclub

and the man who
I'm drinking with

gets jumped in an alley.

And I pull outta can of
hairspray and a lighter

and I end up chasing
the bad guys away

with my hairspray and lighter.

Using my hairspray
as a flamethrower,

I become the hero of the film.

- [Dark Infinity]
Sounds like a lotta fun.

- Yeah, it was interesting.

- [Dark Infinity] Do you
wanna talk a little bit

about your experiences
that you remember

working with Marilyn Manson?

- Well Brian, as I know him as.

Great guy.

Great sense of humor.

Very intelligent.

I wish these women
would stop thinking

that he's this
macho straight guy

'cause we all know he's not.

I mean any man who wears
more blush than I do,

honey, tellin' people, "He's a drag queen," all right?

Get over it, girls.

So he's got a big
schlong, get over it.

Most drag queens do.

Hello.

[Dark Infinity chuckling]

Brian called me one day

and I was out in Echo Park.

And he goes, "I want
you to be in a video."

I said, "Okay.

"Who's it with?"

"Marilyn Manson."

"Well who is she?"

[Dark Infinity chuckling]

He goes, "Well it's me."

"Marilyn Manson?"

He goes, "Yeah, Marilyn Monroe and Charlie Manson."

I go, "Okay."

Interesting concept, all right?

So show up.

We're in back of the
Superior Court building.

Of course they have this great big old stage that's like

13 feet in the air.

There's no way I can jump my wheelchair up this thing.

All right?

I can't climb the ladder.

That's out.

So basically the first day I got paid for nothin'.

Second day we went
over to Simi Valley

and we used a museum
that was shut down

and this museum
was a giant donut.

And they put a Plaster
of Paris over my boobs

to make boobs on his chest.

So you're lookin' at my tits, boys, on Brian's chest.

Brian was such a sweetheart.

During the 1998 MTV Awards,

the costumer, hairstylist and makeup artist didn't show up.

And the girls that
were back-up singers,

their dresses were still
on the bolt of material.

I had to act swift and quick.

I called the supplier here of the Universal Amphitheater.

Said, "I need a can
of gold spray paint

"and I need a can of
pink spray paint."

They sent it over.

I put all the boots upside down on the parking pillars

and me and my assistant spray painted all the pairs of boots

pink and then the gold.

The girls got the gold ones, the boys got the pink ones.

They got all their
uniforms on 'em.

I had to sit there and make a dress over the girls

while them laying
down on the ground

and we hot glued 'em
into the dresses.

And that's how the dresses were put on them girls.

- [Dark Infinity] Wow,
way for you to jump in.

- And Brian goes, "I owe ya."

"I'll say you owe me.

[Dark Infinity chuckling]

"Saved your bacon."

- [Dark Infinity] Is there anything you wanna say

to your fans then,

that you'd like to say to 'em?

- Well I wanna thank you for all your years of dedication

on this old queen and thank you for all your warm messages

I get on Facebook and
Instagram and Twitter.

Yeah.

You ever try fighting
with the president

of the United States on Twitter?

It's a lot of fun,

[Dark Infinity chuckling]

especially since he comes ill-equipped with brains.

- [Dark Infinity] Exactly.

Well thank you so much

for taking the time
to talk to us today.

We really appreciate it.

- You got it.

- [Dark Infinity] This country

is filled with
all walks of life:

the rich, the famous,
the beautiful,

the poor, the ugly and the weird

and Hollywood is no exception.

For in reality, there's
beauty in everything,

especially the
strange and weird.

We can learn from what
we don't understand.

And once we all understand each other better,

we can grow together and take humanity to a higher place.

This has been Dark Infinity.

And until next time, stay weird.

- 10 to is where I
start to get hoarse.

My voice is kinda hoarse.

- [Dark Infinity]
Oh, no worries.

[soft foreboding music]

Okay, so let's start with--

- I'm looking, looking?

- [Dark Infinity] You can look into the camera.

Yup, talk right to the camera.

Okay, are you?

- I had my dress
picked. [chuckles]

- [Dark Infinity]
Looks beautiful.

- [sighs] Anything that gives me the slim right now.

- [Dark Infinity] Okay, so we're gonna start out.

We'll have you talk
a little bit about

why you decided to step
back from the film work

and get into camming and
more mainstream films.

- Okay.
- Whenever you're ready.

- How's my language, clean?

Does it matter?

- Oh no, you can cuss.

It's all right.
- Talking about camming.

- Yeah, make it as
raunchy as you want.

It's fine.
- Okay.

- Go for it.
