XRCO
.

Origin

PornParody.com, a website dedicated to reviewing porn parodies, cites the

Snow White and the Seven Perverts.[2] The subgenre began taking off in the 1990s,[3] experiencing a surge in popularity during the 2000s and 2010s.[4] William Shakespeare's works have been used as inspiration, titles include Hamlet: For the Love of Ophelia and Othello: Dangerous Desire.[5]

Types

In 2002, Shaving Ryan's Privates, a movie starring actor-turned-infosec analyst Jeff Bardin, was released. The movie documented porn films that parody classic Hollywood movies. There have been porn parodies produced of

reality television series Duck Dynasty. Parodies also include non-story or event specific productions such as the porn parody film Who's Nailin' Paylin? that features characters impersonating the real life politicians Sarah Palin, Hillary Clinton, and Condoleezza Rice as well as media figure Bill O'Reilly.[6][7][8]

Production

Some parodies use techniques such as CGI.[9] One movie reviewer commented that the costume of a particular comic book character in a porn parody was a "better version" of the one used in the mainstream movie.[10]

Reception and review

Journalist and author Charlie Jane Anders wrote, before blogging on the subject, "I didn't realize just how many porn parodies there are — and how terrible most of them actually are."[8]

Industry acceptance

Acknowledging its origins and public appeal,[12] several industry publications and trade groups have created award categories for the genre. Two of the industry's major award programs offer recognition for this category of adult film.

The

AVN Award added the categories of "Best Parody - Comedy" and "Best Parody - Drama" in 2009.[12] In 2013, the Star Wars parody Star Wars XXX: A Porn Parody was that year's most nominated production as well as the winner of the Comedy category.[13] In 2012, the category of "Best Director" for a "Parody and Best Celebrity Sex Tape" was added.[14]

The

Jonathan Morgan-directed film Space Nuts, a parody of the Mel Brooks film Spaceballs - itself a parody of Star Wars. Space Nuts also won the 2004 AVN award for Best Parody - Comedy.[15]

Mainstream media

The genre has gained the attention of the

mainstream press. In 2009 director Jeff Mullen (a.k.a. Will Ryder) was interviewed by Newsweek writer Joshua Alston about his leading role in the resurgence of porn parodies.[16][17]

In 2009,

Adult Video News writer Tom Hymes observed, "I have come to the realization that a very real expectation is being created among the celebrity elite: Will my show be the next XXX parody... please?" "What is kind of brilliant about the whole thing is the fact that these mainstream shows and the actors on them now get to rub shoulders with the porn industry without any actual rubbing. That's why I call them the new celebrity-safe sex tapes for safe-sex celebrities."[18] Alan Ball, creator of the HBO series True Blood stated in 2010 that "We just found out that they're doing a porn parody of True Blood. That's certainly a moment of going 'Wow, we've arrived.'"[19][20]

In 2010, actress
