A nude chapter is unfolding in the saga of Kim Kardashian ‘s sex tape. A few weeks ago, an unknown buyer (most likely a member of the Kardashian kamp) sent a letter to Vivid Entertainment offering to buy all the rights to the 2007 sex tape that launched Kim to stardom. Whether this was a strategic move or the buyer underestimated porn’s ability to jump on publicity and ride it raw (pun, as always, intended), this has turned out to be the perfect PR storm. First Vivid president Steve Hirsch told the anonymous buyer via a not-so-anonymous TMZ interview that he’d be willing to sell the rights- for $30 million. Now the website PornHub is also throwing its hat (not its jimi hat , thankfully) into the ring. PornHub is known for amateur porn of all-and we do mean all- stripes, so having the rights to Kim K’s multimillion dollar ass would be a major coup for the site. However, they’re only willing to pay $5 million for the privilege. Via TMZ: In a letter to Vivid head man Steven Hirsch, the site says they are willing to offer $5 million for the tape … considerably less than the $30 million Hirsch is asking for. The site — which is 100% free — says they “respectfully disagree” with Hirsch’s value of the tape, stating they feel the DVD market is “dying” and online is where it’s at.

In every person’s film catalog, aka the dusty shelf of movies you have in your home, there are some deep dramas, some classic comedies and some thrilling action movies. Usually hidden in the back of that same shelf though are at least one or two movies that are extremely ratchet. The kinds that cause you to have to explain to nosey guests not only why you have them but why you love them. But there’s no shame in loving a ratchet movie or two, and everyone has their faves. We’ve come up with a list of 10 films that are questionable in taste but get the most play in DVD players, or dare I say, old VHS players, time and time again. They’re all known for some crazy, stereotypical or random behavior from their characters, yet they manage to have us rollin’! And don’t front! I’m sure you’ve seen at least a handful of the ones on this list. Feel free to shout out your faves! Continued at MadameNoire.com
In skinticipation of our skinterview with Synapse Films ‘ own Jerry Chandler , we’re rubbing down two of the DVD label’s newest releases, college slasher flicks Frat House Massacre (2008) and The Dorm That Dripped Blood (1982). See Skin Central’s review after the jump!
Jerry Chandler (seen at left being choked by Christina Lindberg – there are people who would pay good money for that, ya know!) KNOWS his cult movies. As one of the twisted minds behind Detroit-based DVD distributor Synapse Films , he’s been working for over five years to give horror, sci-fi, exploitation and erotic films the red-carpet treatment that’s usually reserved for “important” cinema (whatever that means). Mr. Skin partnered with Synapse to release the Women in Prison Triple Feature DVD earlier this year (you can read our review here ), and we FIRM-ly agree with their mission of bringing the world’s weirdest cinema to the masses, so we asked Jerry a few questions about his life in the skinema trenches.

When I saw Hong Kong producer-director Tsui Hark’s Detective Dee and the Mystery of Phantom Flame at the Venice Film Festival last year, I lamented that although American viewers would probably be able to track the movie down on DVD or online, the picture wasn’t likely to get a U.S. theatrical release. Happily, I was wrong, and if you’re lucky enough to live in one of the cities where Detective Dee is playing, you too will now have a chance to witness Tsui’s glorious and somewhat unhinged vision as he tackles an episode in the real-life history of China — the ascent of the first female emperor to the throne — adding fanciful touches like spontaneous human combustion and mysterious creepy-crawlies with dangerous powers. It’s the kind of ambitious, loopy spectacle that begs to be seen on the big screen if at all possible.

My name is Seante. On Justin’s birthday, rumors surfaced that Justin is actually a really rude person. Well, I personally couldn’t believe it. So I decided to do research. I came across this podcast where Justin was promoting his Never Say Never DVD . It seemed as if Justin’s remarks to the interviewer were very snappy and sharp. There was a point that the interviewer said, “I’ve never seen the movie” and Justin commented back was, “How are you going to do an interview with me about my movie and you’ve never seen it? It’s not even that expensive, you can catch a matinee it’s cheaper.” Immediately stopping the video there, I was very upset that the down to earth guy I saw in Never Say Never, wasn’t really down to earth. Taking my anger to Twitter, I tweeted how I feel like I’ve been duped. Saying things like, “I’m done. I’m deleting my Twitter. I no longer Justin Bieber, but I LOVE his music, so I will support his MUSIC only.” Right before I went to delete my Twitter, I sent a tweet to Justin Bieber saying “@justinbieber wow. i guess you’re movie was a lie. you’re not that sweet down to earth person. you’re RUDE.” (I was on Twitter for iPhone, so I couldn’t deactivate right then) I was really hurt, and it wasn’t hard to tell by my tweets. Minutes later, my DM light came on. I don’t know, but I took a while to finally look at it because I kinda had a feeling it was Justin and there it was. A DM from Justin himself saying, “i was not rude…was joking around with them and they took it the wrong way. Their was a delay…i could barely hear them. IM NOT A BAD GUY!” Beliebers knew that he had DMd me because after hours of not following anyone, he followed me. It was 12:07am ON A SCHOOL NIGHT. I really needed to go to bed, but after that, I couldn’t. Anyways, being as stubborn as I am, I immediately tweeted how I got it wrong, but I’m not sorry for anything I said. My mentions were blowing up! A few minutes after Justin DMd me, he tweeted “having mixed feelings on my birthday”. That’s when I started to feel really bad. I know I wasn’t the only one tweeting Justin about being rude, but when I mentioned how Never Say Never was phony, it stuck a cord in him. I started to feel terrible. I just decided to go to bed. When I woke up the next day, I immediately checked my Twitter. The DM light was on again. I was scared to open it, but I did. Being the creeper Justin is, he had been creeping. And four hours later at 4:21am, Justin had creeped my tweets, and DMd me again. It said “u dont need to be sorry. just no im not bsing you. im not changing. i care and im not rude to my fans or others. i try and will always try”. Justin had stopped me from deleting my Twitter. I felt on top of the world. The person that I spent my days supporting, notice ME. Out of 9 million people! I felt important. I felt that Justin cares so much about his fans that he wouldn’t want to lose a single one! I really respected him for that. There’s so many celebrities who say how they care about their fans. But the difference between Justin and them, is that he doesn’t only say that he cares about his fans, he shows it. -@iBieberCheer Here is the original post: My name is Seante.
