Animal House: Celeb Nudes on DVD 7-26-11

You’ll be doing a kegstand in your pants this week as the Mr. Skin-approved comedy classic Animal House (1978) finally hits Blu-ray. We’ve also got a ass-tounding eyeful of Italian beauties Nela Lucic and Anna Jimskaia as Euro-erotica director (and confirmed ass man) Tinto Brass ‘ Monamour (2005) gets the deluxe DVD treatment, and you’ll be mangling your machete as the dairylicious doc Machete Maidens Unleashed slices its way onto DVD. In other DVD and Blu-ray nudes, you’ll be revving your engine when biker babe Kristin Herold flashes her headlights in Born to Ride (2011): It’s the three R’s of collegiate life: raunch, retching, and ‘rections. They’re all present and accounted for in this uproarious T&A masterpiece that made all the world a wild toga party. The drunken perverts of Animal House (1978) put high, hard fun in higher education as they wage war on so-called decency, repressed homoerotic frat houses, and a disciplinarian dean. Among the road trips and six-packs are lots of fleshy two-packs, a nice fanny flash from Karen Allen , and more gross-out good humor than you can shake your meat to. Directed by Italian erotic film maestro Tinto Brass , Monamour (2005) stars Anna Jimskaia as Marta, a woman who accompanies her husband to a book fair and strikes up an affair with a French man ( Riccardo Marino ) she meets under a painting of Jupiter’s erect penis. Be sure to check out the scene where Anna and her galpal Nela Lucic hit the spa completely nude. Anna spends so much of this movie completely naked that they should have called it BONE-amour! In the 1970s and ’80s, the place to be for making sleazy drive-in fare wasn’t Hollywood back lots- it was the lush jungles of the Phillippines. Drawn to the island nation by the plentiful, cheap labor and lack of safety standards, American B-movie producers ground out grindhouse pics by the hundreds set in women’s prisons, cannibal camps, fascist dictatorships and jungle hellholes of all types, all slated for drive-in double features back in the USA. Now the nude documentary Machete Maidens Unleashed! reveals the titillating true stories behind wild flicks like The Big Doll House , Black Mama White Mama , Cover Girl Models , Firecracker , and The Mad Doctor of Blood Island that lived by a different, but still pretty cool, type of three Bs- boobs, blood and beasts. Two buddies on a motorcycle trip get caught up in a deadly game of political intrigue in Born to Ride (2011). Mike ( Casper Van Dien ) and Alex ( Patrick Muldoon ) take to the open road for an epic highway adventure. Motorcycle mamas are an essential part of any biker flick, and Theresa Russell of Wild Things fame will rev your motor as a sexy biker babe. But hot Harley honey Kristin Herold will really get your engine running as Nikki, who we see from behind as she strips to a thong for her outlaw biker guy. Kristin’s got a body that was Born to Ride ! C U Next Tuesday, Skin fans, for all the breast nude releases on DVD and Blu-Ray right here on the Mr. Skin blog !

Happy 53rd Birthday, Kevin Bacon! What’s His Finest Onscreen Moment?

On this day in 1958, a baby boy named Kevin Norwood Bacon was born in Philadelphia. Seventeen years later, he would leave home to pursue a career in theater, only to find his way onto the big screen via a role in Animal House . Over thirty years after making that film debut, Bacon has established himself as one of America’s most beloved actors (and the subject of one of our favorite parlor games). Now let’s celebrate Bacon’s birthday the only way we know how — by pinpointing his finest onscreen moment.

‘American Idol’ Exec Producer ‘Pleased’ With 15-Year-Old Contestants

‘They were mature, sang brilliantly and were just grateful for the opportunity of being allowed in the room,’ Nigel Lythgoe tells MTV News. By James Montgomery, with reporting by Matt Elias Nigel Lythgoe Photo: MTV News On Wednesday night’s premiere of “American Idol” ‘s , 10th — and, some say, most important — season, viewers not only got their first glimpse of new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez , but also some of the show’s much-discussed new rules too. Like, for example, the newly lowered age requirement, which, for the first time, allows 15-year-olds to audition. And on last night’s show, it gave us hopefuls like the perky Kenzie Palmer, who made it through to Hollywood (thanks in no small part to Lopez). Of course, Palmer’s success was what the “Idol” team probably had in mind when they instigated the change — but, as executive producer Nigel Lythgoe told MTV News, things haven’t necessarily worked out according to plan. “I think that the one change that I’m most excited about is opening it up to 15-year-olds. And when I heard about it, I wasn’t too happy about it, because I thought, ‘We’re going to get a bunch of immature kids come in and cry their eyes out when they’re kicked out,’ ” he said. “And whereas I was partly right, the majority of the kids were absolutely fabulous, and you’d never guess they were 15. They were mature, sang brilliantly and were just grateful for the opportunity of being allowed in the room.” And, much like Palmer, there’s still plenty of those 15-year-olds who are making noise on the show. “[I’m] very pleased with them,” he said, “and quite a few of them are still there.” Are you excited or wary of the lowered age requirement?

Jake Johnson Raves About ‘No Strings Attached’ Director Ivan Reitman

‘I couldn’t debate him on stuff,’ actor says of legendary director/producer. By Kara Warner Jake Johnson Photo: MTV News For rising comedic star Jake Johnson, who appears alongside Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman in the new romantic comedy “No Strings Attached,” his personal highlight from working on the film (in addition to having the best lines in the trailer and many of the killer one-liners in the film as well) was working with legendary director/producer Ivan Reitman. “For me, working with Ivan Reitman was crazy because of ‘Ghostbusters,’ ” Johnson recently told MTV News of the man responsible for helping bring comedic classics like “Animal House,” “Ghostbusters” and “Meatballs” to the screen. “We did a whole scene where, this was one of the coolest moments of the movie for me, the scene where we’re in a fraternity house, partying and, you know, Ivan produced ‘Animal House,’ ” Johnson added. “And we’re all hanging out, setting up, and he goes to somebody he was standing next to, we were standing in a little circle, and he goes, ‘Man, I’m having flashbacks of “Animal House” in here.’ And he looked around and goes, ‘This is exactly how it felt, but in a different era.’ And I thought, ‘That’s awesome!’ Like, this is actually that man. [He] was there and [John] Belushi and [Bill] Murray and all those guys were such inspirations for our kind of generation. So to see a man who was there, it made it very real.” The actor, who you may recognize from his roles in “Get Him to the Greek” and “Paper Heart,” said Reitman’s legacy and r
