'Fifty Shades Darker II' Parody Street Date Set by Smash Pictures

LOS ANGELES—Smash Pictures has announced a street date of January 10, 2013 for part two of its parody of Fifty Shades of Grey, titled This Isn’t Fifty Shades Darker II. The video stars Allie Haze, Ryan Driller, Teal Conrad, Richie Calhoun, Elexis Monroe, Evan Stone, Kimmy Olsen and Danny Wylde. Smash Pictures rented yachts and helicopters to make Fifty Shades Darker II as authentic as possible, and even licensed exclusive dark, gothic music to set the tone. Describing the new release, Stuart Wall, VP of Smash Pictures said, "We look at our parody version as making a new wine that tastes like the old, but has a slightly lethal effect. When we did the casting for this film we met with over fifty female and male actors to play the lead roles. Choosing Allie Haze and Ryan Driller for the two leads was a magical chemistry. Even during shooting part II, the sparks were still there — and it comes across in the film." Dan Quinn, President of Smash Pictures commented, "This next parody is a blend of our first parody, This isn’t Fifty Shades Grey XXX. This porn parody is not a run-of-the-mill porno — its core is bondage. We had to add an extra sex scene, just as the first movie, or it would have been boring. This is an alternative to the mainstream movie. It's sure to live up to the first part with the imaginative work created by Jim Powers to imitate the Fifty Shades trilogy." Wall added, "Before filming part II, we had our entire cast of porn stars read the books so they could get a feel for their characters. We also added our own twist to this parody."
