John Holmes: The Man The Myth The Legend review summaries:
fu_q's
"John Holmes: The Man, the Myth, the Legend" (Uncensored) is a fascinating documentary from Pleasure Productions and David Wald that focuses upon the legendary cock-slinger of the 70's and 80's, Mr. Johnny Wadd himself, John Holmes. Presented in an intercut interview format with former friends, directors, fellow performers, etc., this film gives insights into not only his career but also his elusive personality and notorious fibbing, bits and pieces about his childhood, and both his drug use and ultimate, untimely passing from AIDS-related complications.

WADD: The Life And Times Of John C. Holmes review summaries:
Flash's
If you are contemplating whether to buy the limited edition Lion's Gate release of Wonderland for Wadd or the VCA release of Wadd, despite the fact that the VCA version was apparently changed without the director's permission, this is the superior edition. The movie itself is very close to the version that still bears Cass Paley's name, the extras are excellent and this is the best disc from VCA that I have ever seen. If you are looking for masturbation material, this film isn't a great choice. But if you are looking for a film about one of the most legendary adult stars of all time, John C. Holmes that doesn't hold back this is definitely worth picking up. [read the full review]

It's all about running and raunch (...and not necessarily in that order...) when two insurance investigators, Jamie Gillis and Robert Bullock, discover that the subject of their recent inquiry is a low-level mob boss, Frank Hollowell, in "Girls on Fire", an overall-good, mid-80s release from VCX and Jack Remy. (**Don't miss the Ginger Lynn / John Holmes coupling here. It's something special.**) [read the full review]

Due to the video problems if you are a fan of the film or it sounds like a good movie to you, you probably want to wait and hope that a better version of it gets released in the future. As this is a limited edition release it will eventually leave the market and anther company may re-release a better print of it. If you are still considering purchasing it, I suggest that you rent it first so you can see how bad the video problems are before you purchase so you don't end up disappointed. [read the full review]
