More often than not erotic films are relegated to certain theaters, but that certainly isn’t the case for 3D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy, released in Hong Kong. The first-day gross of the film beat the debut of… Avatar?!
Yes, you read correctly. NPR reports that the 3D film made an equivalent of $360,000 in its first day of release in Hong Konw, beating the James Cameron-helmed sci-fi flick, which pulled in $340,000 in that country on opening day.
The film derives from a 1991 film called Sex and Zen; that film’s executive producer, Stephen Shiu Sr., had this to say:
"We met people's expectations. People have always thought that you need 3-D technology for this kind of content. So people were very curious.”
Does this mean that more films of a similar nature will get made in the future?
