Review:
I saw Exhausted in the movie theater when it was released in the 1980's. The video really hadn't made the inroads that came later. I remember reading about John C. Holmes being on the run. In fact, there was a large poster with an enlarged newspaper article that had people of all walks of life stopping and reading the article. So John C. Holmes was definitely mainstream already. Who was to know that two different mainstream Hollywood movies would come out based on his life.

Anyway, the documentary still holds up all these years later the director of Boogie Nights definitely studied this film. I agree with another reviewer about the superior quality of the explicit sex shown in this film and others of the era. That is to say, it was and is far superior to anything put out today. I don't even bother with the new releases because the sex scenes are so absolutely boring, and by the numbers.

Exhausted is an excellent expose of the legendary John C. Holmes. Definitely worth a look for John C. Holmes fans!

Exhausted is a self-serving softball “documentary” about John C. Holmes, who was the biggest star in the adult film industry in two ways. He was the most famous, and he was just the biggest where it really counts in that business, about 13 inches worth. The film combines footage from actual porn films, “Man on the Street” interviews, and interviews with industry insiders: director Bob Chinn, actress Seka, and John Holmes himself. While this film is not a bona fide documentary detailing the life of John Holmes (before his notorious murder trial), it is still a very erotic and very arousing sex film. It is an attempt to dig into the career of John Holmes, one of the best-known male stars of hard-core pornography, most noted for his big gun. This excellent production was billed as the “true life story of the unchallenged King of Porn himself.” If you watch it, it's difficult to argue – It's packed with the most luscious, explosive women in adult entertainment from the early 80s.
