Of Flesh and Blood 1990 Directed by Jeff Mentges

A black-and-white noir retelling of porn star John Holmes' sordid descent into drugs, mayhem and murder.

In the late '80s, Jeff Mentges stopped fronting infamous DC band No Trend and went to film school. Instead of making the requesite short film to graduate, he ended up with Of Flesh and Blood, a black-and-white noir retelling of porn star John Holmes' sordid descent into drugs, mayhem and murder. Shot for just $15K, Of Flesh and Blood featured his former co-workers and denizens from Joe's Record Paradise, as well as beloved school janitor Al Breon in the starring role.
