Talk Dirty to Me Part III is a 1984 pornographic film and a spoof on the mainstream film Splash [1] and is the second sequel to the original 1980 film Talk Dirty to Me . John Leslie had the lead role, playing "Jack", a character he had played in the first two installments of the Talk Dirty to Me series.

Leslie would continue to play Jack in two more installments of the series, after which the films became less relevant to the original film. At least a dozen Talk Dirty to Me films would ultimately be produced into the early 2000s.[ citation needed ]

Controversy

The original film is controversial for having Traci Lords in the cast (she was in fact featured in the original poster for the film and plays a key role). Following the May 1986 revelations that she was underage under U.S. law during filming, the movie was re-edited with Lisa De Leeuw replacing her in re-shot scenes. However, the re-shot footage was done on NTSC videotape, which did not match well with the remaining original 35mm film footage.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Traci Lords</span> American actress (born 1968)

Nora Louise Kuzma, known professionally as Traci Lords, is an American actress, singer, and former pornographic actress. She entered the adult film industry using a fake birth certificate to conceal that she was two years under the legal age of 18. Lords starred in adult films and was one of the most sought-after actresses in that industry during her career. When the FBI acted on an anonymous tip that Lords was a minor during her time in the industry, and that pornographers were distributing and selling these illegal images and videotapes, the resulting fallout led to prosecution of those responsible for creating and distributing the tapes, but the prosecutions fell through when it was revealed she was using a real federal passport as her proof of age along with a fake birth certificate and fake California drivers license. In addition, all of her adult films, and the September 1984 edition of Penthouse were banned as child pornography. Her last adult movie was filmed two days after her 18th birthday, by her own company, in what many claim was a way to profit from her notoriety when the truth was finally revealed.

<i>Scream 3</i> 2000 American slasher film

It stars David Arquette, Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox Arquette, Parker Posey, Patrick Dempsey, Scott Foley, Lance Henriksen, Matt Keeslar, Jenny McCarthy, Emily Mortimer, Deon Richmond, and Patrick Warburton. It is a sequel to Scream 2 (1997) and the third installment in the Scream film series. The film's story takes place one year after the previous film's events and follows Sidney Prescott (Campbell), who has gone into self-imposed isolation following the events of the previous two films but is drawn to Hollywood after a new Ghostface begins killing the cast of the film within a film Stab 3. Scream 3 combines the violence of the slasher genre with comedy and "whodunit" mystery, while satirizing the cliché of film trilogies. Unlike the previous Scream films, there was an increased emphasis on comedic elements in this installment; the violence and horror were reduced in response to increased public scrutiny about violence in media, following the Columbine High School massacre.
