The Grindhouse Film Festival and Something Weird Video present the World Premiere of cult director Frank Henenlotter’s new documentary That’s Sexploitation! at the Cinefamily in Los Angeles on June 25.

On Tuesday, June 25, the Grindhouse Film Festival and Something Weird Video will be joining forces with the Cinefamily to present the world premiere of Frank Henenlotter’s new documentary That’s Sexploitation!, a visual history of over 40 years of sex in the cinema (1930 – 1970)!

See rare and lost clips from vintage “adults only” feature films, shocking short subjects, quaint coin drop arcade loops, naughty stags and smokers, and graphic sex educationals from days gone by. Archival footage shows the many genres that developed over the years: starting with the early sex hygiene and drug scare films, glamour, panties and pasties, pretty pin-ups, goona-goona exotica, nudist camp classics, striptease and burlesque, art house cinema, nudie cuties, roughies, sexy psychedelia and tying it all up with the pre-hardcore white coaters.

Your guides through this seldom-seen side of American film history are the “Mighty Monarch of Exploitation Film” David F. Friedman and cult movie director Frank Henenlotter. They’ll accompany you on a fun and informative ride through the wild and wonderful world of sexploitation cinema. Hold onto your seats and let the show begin!
