  2. OMG! Anthony Perkins was HOT! I don't remember him looking so delicious in Psycho, but I haven't seen that movie in 35 years. So I take it in this scene, he is changing into basket ball shorts and tank top in front of everybody? That's hot indeed.

    You know that movie Lawn Dogs...starring our favorite full frontal nudity actor Sam Rockwell in which Lawn Dogs was no exception in him being naked and showing all in the movie; Well, when the movie made it to the Starz movie channel, who proclaim to be a family movie channel displaying no movies with nudity, broadcast an alternative version of Lawn Dogs where all of Sam's naked scene's, including the one of him jumping off the bridge, were replaced with the exact same scene except Sam was in tighty whities. I guess Starz figured it was a good movie but couldn't broadcast it with naked Sam. I don't know if the Starz version ever made it DVD or not but I do have it recorded on VHS. I also have obtained a VHS copy of No Secrets. I'll try to digitize them for you in the near future and send the underwear scenes to you like I did with Prison for Children. AND...for the love of Pete if you ever retire this blog could you give us like a month's warning so I can have the time to download all these wonderful screen caps before they go away.

    1. Yeah, he was pretty much changing out in the open ... it was a good scene. I knew that about Lawn dogs but never saw the scene. They also did that with "Porkys" (where the kids were naked to have sex with Cherry Forever). In the movie they were naked, in the other version they had on briefs/boxers. I found a few pics from it but they suck. Anyone have these pics? And yeah Tony, that would be great if you have any pics to send. Finally, if/when blog stops I will definitely give heads-up.

    1. Yeah, they just filmed the scenes twice knowing the nude scenes would never be able to be shown on TV. In the case of "lawn dogs" and "Porkys" it was full frontal male nudity. Nowadays they just computer generate underwear/bras on people as needed (see "Showgirls" for the most blatant example of this).
