AVN Awards 2021 Winners
Last night, January 23, 2021 was the annual adult industry gala that is the AVN Awards. Though, due to the global pandemic, for the first time in its history, was an all virtual event. Hosted by the lovely duo of Kira Noir and Skylar Lo, the event which was presented by MyFreeCams, was a fast paced and entertaining show, even with a few technical glitches here and there. It was sexy, fun, and had some playfully and tantalizing comedy skits featuring a group of beautiful adult performers.

February 1
AUDREY ROSE (Director: Robert Wise)

Starring Marsha Mason, Anthony Hopkins, John Beck, Susan Swift. (Also available on Shudder Canada)
THE QUEEN OF BLACK MAGIC (1981) (Director: Liliek Sudjio)

After a night of passionate lovemaking in which he is bitten on the neck, a troubled literary editor becomes convinced that he is a vampire and begins to live the role.
