Film fans across the world have, of course, been saddened by the passing of film director Wes Craven. But this fascinating little article by AVN talks about a side of his work that is little seen.

I certainly was completely unaware that he directed several porn movies in the 1970s prior to making his breakthrough movie The Last House On The Left and that he apparently edited “tens” of others.

Indeed, Angela The Fireworks Woman is something of a ‘Golden Era’ porn classic, and I had no idea he was ‘Abe Snake’! The article does say that Craven worked under many pseudonyms so the actual scale of his porn editing work may never be known.

Even so, it’s an interesting footnote to the large numbers of articles being written about him this week.
