    Grindhouse lovingly traces the sordid history of the "adults only" film, from Poverty Row productions of the 1930s to the swinging '70s and the days of free love. In truth, the movies themselves were extremely tame by today's standards--replaced by hardcore pornography and the advent of VCRs. Grindhouse brims with rare posters and lobby cards for these outrageous subculture masterpieces. color photos. 180 b&w illustrations.
