Morgan Spurlock Showtime Special To Feature Dennis Hof Brothel

LAS VEGAS—7 Deadly Sins, a Showtime (SHO) documentary from Oscar-nominated director Morgan Spurlock, will feature Dennis Hof’s Sagebrush Ranch Brothel when it airs at 11 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 21. The Sagebrush Ranch brothel, one of the seven Nevada legal houses of prostitution owned by Dennis Hof (the most famous of which is the Moonlite Bunny Ranch—www.BunnyRanch.com), will be featured in the 7 Deadly Sins episode on lust. 7 Deadly Sins will be presented as a seven-part series that explores modern-day interpretations of the so-called “seven deadly sins” of ancient religious lore.  The late-night half-hour program is the brainchild of Spurlock, best known for his hit film Supersize Me, and he narrates throughout the production, introducing and closing each episode, and commenting along the way. The SHO film crew spent several days at the Sagebrush Ranch brothel in the state capitol of Carson City, shooting the working girls—known as the “Sagebrush Starlets”—recording interviews with prostitutes and customers alike, and documenting the daily behind-the-scenes life inside a busy all-American brothel.   Hollywood (Hollywood@SagebrushRanch.com), a top $$$ earner at the Sagebrush, was interviewed with James, her “significant other” of more than six years. They discussed how they kept their relationship healthy and stable in spite of Hollywood having sex with other men on a daily basis. “We found the Showtime people to be very professional and comprehensive in their approach—I think they shot some amazing footage of what life in a brothel is really like, stuff that no one has ever seen before!” Hollywood said of her cinematic experience.  Indeed, everything from seeing the Sagebrush girls displaying themselves in a customer “line-up,” booking a client, dancing sexy on a stripper pole, and even how to perform oral sex correctly, is shown. And the working girls themselves reveal-all about their personal lives, such as prostitute Kristi Kiss, who although a grandmother of nine, is still going strong at the brothel. Reviewers have already proclaimed a mixture of shock and awe for 7 Deadly Sins: the critiques have ranged from “A show you are supposed to gawk at!” and “Dark, twisted and wildly entertaining!” to “Purposefully carnival-esque” and “Proves that truth really is stranger than fiction!”
