Overview

The Ribald Tales of Canterbury / Tasty (1985)

Hyapatia Lee was one of the biggest names during the twilight years of theatrical hardcore. As she began to take more creative control over her film appearances, including helping to author their screenplays, she also brought her husband, Bud, into the mix to serve as her director; a decision which would help launch his own lengthy filmmaking career.

Tasty
  • Interview (10:39, HD) is a video conference discussion with director Bud Lee, who recalls a 1978 trip to a strip club to watch a good friend's little sister on the stage. That woman turned out to be Hyapatia Lee, who embarked on a career in adult movies to help boost her income as an exotic dancer, making her debut with 1983's "The Young Like it Hot." Bud and Hyapatia elected to take care of their own scripts, including work on "The Ribald Tales of Canterbury" and "Tasty," while Bud launched a directorial career, eventually claiming credits on hundreds of projects. "Tasty" is examined, tracking the development of the idea and management of the actors, with some unable to spit out their lines. The genesis of the song, "Hit Me With Your Wet Shot," is shared as well. "The Ribald Tales of Canterbury" is briefly covered, with the period sets quickly changed into a radio station for "Tasty." Bud shares his fondness for San Francisco as well, happy to make movies there during the 1980s.
  • And a Theatrical Trailer (4:02, HD) is included.
