Indeed, Holmes knew he had the HIV during this video. His idea was that everyone in porn was going to die of it. Cicciolina did eventually contract HIV, but not in this video. She got it from another pron star. I believe she is still alive and went on to become some high muckety-muck in Italy.
When John Holmes went to Italy to film with Cicciolina, he had already been diagnosed with AIDS. She never knew at the time. Fortunately, no one over there was infected from him. I'm wondering if this film was one of them done at th at time in Italy.
Cicciolina never grunted or groaned in her films or seemed to show any emotion. This was part of her bizarre behaviour, but technically she was a completely professional actress. Had she been less bizarre she could have ranked alongside her contemporaries Teresa Orlowsky and Dolly Buster in popularity.
Holmes was a limp dick, not worth anything. Amber Lynn was very hot and sexy, poor her to fuck with Mr. No Brain. Cicciolina was strange, but in my oppinion not really sexy.
