OPINION: The “porn parody” industry has become so wilfully unimaginative these days it makes its mid-’90s forerunners seem like sublime works of satire: Tits A Wonderful Life, Buffy The Vampire Layer, Pulp Friction, and the immortal classic Ass Ventura: Crack Detective, seem like relics of a simpler, sillier time. Now, it’s sufficient to simply whack “this ain’t” or “a XXX parody” fore or after the original inspiration’s title, cast some porn stars who look vaguely like their non-porn equivalents, and Bob’s your uncle’s pool maintenance man’s lonely MILF wife with a pearl necklace fetish.
