Legendary actor Christopher Lee's sordid movie past is coming back to haunt him - with the DVD release of a 1970 hardcore porn film he appeared in.
Despite a long and distinguished career in the big screen industry, Lee naively agreed to a small role in EUGENIE: THE STORY OF HER JOURNEY INTO PERVERSION - not realising the finished product would be an explicit adult film featuring anal sex scenes.
And Lee was horrified when a pal informed him the saucy movie was being screened in XXX cinemas throughout the Soho area of London.
He says, "Oh Eugenie. I was the narrator of a (MARQUIS) DE SADE story, PHILOSOPHY OF THE BOUDOIR. I went down for a couple of days with my red smoking jacket, delivered my stuff and everybody was very pleased.
"What I didn't know was that when I left, they took their clothes off. Then a friend said, 'Oh, I see you're starring in a film showing in Soho.'"
