promo for the 1984 Roger Earl movie – Fade In – looks like I posted the full film a coupla years back.
I had forgotten about the mustached balding guy, Scott Clark ! (Just the 2 films, FADE IN / FADE OUT) Hope he didn’t get any of Chris Allen David Ashfield’s feathers in his mouth.
As much as I like Jon’s outfit, it doesn’t do any justice to his crotch! what the…??!!

The feather guy, meant to be an angelic being, is David Ashfield.
yes yes! I had to go back and look – I thought the scene was ONLY Chris and Scott, but then David appears….
Great promo! (except maybe for the stulted V/O)
The fantastical costumes and imagery always seemed a little over the top for me, especially on video tape. But there are some truly wild images, like Michael Christopher as the black bird (angel?) jerking off. I love Jon King’s web costume. Don’t buy for a second that he’s a spider. But with his fat dick poking out, I think his crotch looks great. Even on the cover, with the pouch, he looks sexy I think. I could see somebody wearing that whole getup to a street fair or a bar on Halloween. The head gear is the part that doesn’t work for me. I would have just gone with an eye mask.
Also, I love Dwan’s appearance, although he seems to be only in the mundane segments. The promo makes it look like he’s in two scenes.
Overall, definitely worth watching if I remember correctly. Sex in a web is not practical and doesn’t look comfortable. Absolute respect to Roger Earl! I was just checking out ‘Naked Lunch’ the other day.
I also like Scott Clark, when he’s not in the Grim Reaper costume. Would’ve enjoyed seeing more of him.
That white bird (sorry, angel) costume was too much for me. Great stuff though. Love Jon King so much.
Thanks BJ!
