This February, hook up with your Deuce-Paramours for an early Valentine’s rendezvous and Bud Townsend’s ‘X-rated’ musical comedy ALICE IN WONDERLAND! Produced by Bill Osco and written by Bucky Searles… with a little help from Lewis Carroll!

Virginal librarian Alice (Playboy cover-girl Kristine De Bell) nods off during her afternoon read and stumbles down more than a rabbit hole, embarking on some seriously psychedelically-sexual encounters… with Knights, Queens, Mad Hatters… to songs like “If You Haven’t Got Dreams, You Ain’t Got Nothing (19 Going on 90),” “His Ding-A-Ling Is Up,” and “What’s a Nice Girl Like You Doing on a Knight Like This?”… and soft-shoes choreographed by Broadway’s Buddy Schwab (The Boyfriend, Mack and Mabel, and Camelot)!!

Shot on 35mm in 10 days on a slim $100k – plus an additional $250,000 for post-production – Osco and producer Jason Williams released the flick via their newly formed ‘General National’ distro company (yes, to be confused with the giant National General company) after every other studio passed. But joke’s on them: after premiering at the National in Times Square (with Andy Warhol in the crowd!), ALICE IN WONDERLAND went on to make $90 million globally (with nary a cent going back to any of the cast or crew)…

Fresh off his success with FLESH GORDON, legendary producer Bill Osco, who’s first uncredited producing role was 1970’s MONA: THE VIRGIN NYMPH – now considered a watershed title that helped inaugurate the ‘Golden Age of Porn’ – would then expand his career, making “straight” films like Walter R. Cichy’s COP KILLERS, and Jackie Kong’s THE BEING and NIGHT PATROL… all in a style that Vincent Canby described as “consistent vulgarity”…  Kinda like your lovers on The Deuce!!
