A Coming of Angels (opens in a new tab), released in select US cinemas in 1977, is an X-rated homage to the original Charlie’s Angels TV show and proves that pornographic spoofs of popular films and TV series is not a recent phenomenon. This is the only film that Joel Scott (opens in a new tab) ever directed but he managed to assemble a cast of now legendary adult stars, including the late Jamie Gillis (opens in a new tab) who starred in over 400 adult pictures as well as John Leslie (opens in a new tab) and Eric Edwards (opens in a new tab) who were actors in over 300 titles each. There are only 6 reviews for the title on IMDb (opens in a new tab), but there’s a lengthy one by someone called Dries Vermeulen who goes into detail about the background of the film and the action it contains.

The artwork features the signature ‘August’ but I’ve been unable to determine who this belongs to and Robin Bougie, the author of the excellent Graphic Thrills (opens in a new tab) (a book about adult movie posters) was also unable to track the artist down. If anyone has any ideas please get in touch.
