Beginning with softcore features in the mid-'60s and eventually moving to hardcore adult films using the alias Henry Paris, writer/director Radley Metzger courted the mainstream when he directed a distinguished, largely British cast in the 1978 PG-rated adaptation of "The Cat and the Canary."

"More" (1969) Prior to achieving mainstream recognition with a series of high-profile films featuring A-level Hollywood talent in the early-to-mid '90s, director Barbet Schroeder made his big screen bow with this X-rated study of two heroin addicts which features a soundtrack by Pink Floyd.

Performing in virtually every genre of film and television during a career which spanned over five decades, actor Cameron Mitchell (1918-1994) added adult films to his lengthy resume in 1983 when he appeared in the hard-X feature "Dixie, Ray, Hollywood Star."

"Linda Lovelace for President" (1975) Released in both soft-X and R-rated versions, Miss Lovelace's failed attempt at mainstream comedy is notable mostly for a supporting cast of familiar faces, including Scatman Crothers, Val Bisoglio, Micky Dolenz, Danny Goldman, Art Metrano, and more.

"The Evil Dead" (1981) Unwilling to fight the promotional and screening limitations imposed by an X-rating, New Line Cinema went the 'text X' route, employing written/spoken age admonitions in lieu of a rating, as heard in this television spot.

"Vixen" (1968) Knowingly inane trailer for Russ Meyer's first film to carry an X-rating on its initial release, this somehow references rape, bromance, lesbianism, racism, free love, the teeterboard of life(?), life's merry chase(??), and communism (among other things), all in a tidy 90 seconds.

"The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover" (1989) Denied an R by the CARA and unwilling to self-apply the X, Miramax instead went the unrated route with an 'adults only' warning. This film was part of the late-'80s surge of serious, harder-than-R movies which led to the creation of the NC-17.

"A Clockwork Orange" (1971) Five U.S. radio spots for Warner Bros. landmark X-rated release; truly one of the most influential and enduring films in cinematic history, thanks to timeless themes, iconic imagery, and talent both before and behind the camera working at their absolute zenith.

"Bolero" (1984) TV spot for director John Derek's harder-than-R attempt at harnessing his wife Bo's sexual zeitgeist following her "10" (1979) breakthrough; one of four almost universally derided films released between 1979-1989 that featured both John as director and Bo as star.

Skip ahead to the 7:50 mark to check out Dennis Parker's October 30, 1979 debut appearance as Police Chief Derek Mallory on the long-running soap opera "The Edge of Night." Parker would appear in over 500 episodes before AIDS-related complications rendered him too sick to work.

"Glen and Randa" (1971) An early casting credit for future Academy Award-winning producer Fred Roos, this X-rated sci-fi adventure was co-written by Rudy Wurlitzer and released the same year as his far-better known, existential road-race cult classic "Two-Lane Blacktop."
