The Skills To Pay The Bills: "MANHUNTERS" JESSICA, CARMEN, KIRSTEN, & EXOTICA Are Lovely & Lethal!
LOS ANGELES, CA -- (June 9th, 2006 DMPR) -- Since the success of such films as THE MATRIX and CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON, highly choreographed, fight-intensive films have been more popular than ever in Hollywood. But as anyone who's watched Steven Seagal huff-and-puff his way unconvincingly through even the simplest fight scenes knows, most American action flicks pull their stunt sequences together through the use of doubles and skillful post-production magic. So when award-winning adult filmmaker BRAD ARMSTRONG (Eternity, Sold, The Collector), began pre-production on his new WICKED PICTURES shot-on-film action spectacular Manhunters, stars jessica drake, Carmen Hart, Kirsten Price, and EXOTICA underwent extensive physical training, spending weeks learning how to perfect the jumps, kicks, low stances, hard and soft punching styles, and many types of weapons training needed to bring this wild look at professional bounty hunting to life.
To prepare for their demanding roles, the ladies participated in a grueling daily regimen of cardio and heavy weightlifting, and received extensive training in such areas as the legal aspects of bounty hunting, the proper use of handcuffs and restraints, how to conduct a search on a building, how to apprehend a fugitive, how to conduct a search with weapons, and how to fire a variety of weapons with maximum accuracy. Ever the perfectionist, AVN Best Actress drake even sought certification through online bounty hunting classes, pursuing studies in such areas as Fugitive Recovery.
To hone their abilities with firearms, the team spent numerous additional days on a shooting range with professional gun handlers from the movie industry. These seasoned pros taught the ladies the intricacies of handgun and rifle safety, and helped the courageous girls develop their sharpshooting abilities. Visit Wicked Pictures
With filming now underway, the girls have been happy to reveal in their own words how the arduous transformation from glamorous superstars to lean, mean fighting machines has helped prepare them for this most demanding production:
jessica drake: “Never have I put so much extra time and effort into preparing for a movie. We all gave 110%, and I can't wait to see all of our training pay off. This is yet one more reason I'm glad to be a Wicked Girl!”
Carmen Hart: “If I had to pick one word to describe this experience, it would be challenging!”
Kirsten Price: “My favorite part was the karate choreography. As a student of martial arts, it was fun to be able to incorporate some of my "other" talents into this movie!”
Exotica: “While I am very disiplined in regards to weight lifting and working out, during our training for this movie I've developed a newfound respect for weapons and ammunition handling. I'm so excited to have been chosen to join the team!”
With just two days of principal photography completed, Manhunters already promises to be an entertaining mix of gritty action, searing sex, and Armstrong's slick trademark visuals. Inspired by the lives of real-life bounty hunters, the innovative filmmaker is sparing no expense to bring this explosive melange of girls and guns to the screen with maximum verisimilitude.
