John Waters’ Favorite Porn: Bobby Garcia

I got an email the other day from a guy who wondered whatever happened to legendary pornographer Bobby Garcia — the low-budget master of straight marine films. Luckily, I’d just read an interview with Garcia in pervert-auteur John Waters’ excellent new book, Role Models. Waters has long been a fan of Garcia and, given that in all my years of porn I’ve never seen anything as remotely as scandalous as what Waters did in Pink Flamingos or Desperate Living, that’s saying something.

Waters tracked Garcia down in a desert hovel near Twentynine Palms, CA where the baby-oil chugging director lives with pigs, rats, dogs, but no electricity. Waters calls him “the Buñuel of Blowjobs,” for his skill at luring straight marines into his digs (beer, poppers and porn, are his trade secret). Bobby films very little and never got rich (“What I do, I do for love.”), but luckily for us his decades of weird, crass sexcapades are still online at AWOL Marines.

Those of you in the gay-for-pay hate camp will erupt in a wad of panties, I’m sure; those of you in the trade-closets camp will rest your case as well. I say — in the words of an old mentor of mine — save the speeches for Malcolm X. I just want to get laid.

The shameless, cock-hungry Garcia gets me there every time. Go get ’em, Bobby.
