10. Wes Craven Produced A Marilyn Chambers Movie

Billed as €œa different kind of love story€ and dismissed by the New York Times as €œa load of drivel, slapped together as a movie€, Together (aka Sensual Paradise) purports to be an investigation into €œthe mystery of man and woman€ by a goateed, wide-eyed doctor who drones on as a young woman goes diving (and later discovers an alternative use for a dandelion), but is best known as the first pairing of two future horror directors. Directed by Sean S Cunningham (Friday The 13th) and co-produced by Wes Craven (A Nightmare On Elm Street, Scream), Together was distributed by Hallmark Releasing, who funded the duo€™s next collaboration, The Last House On The Left. It was also the movie that introduced the general public to €œMarilyn Briggs€, who subsequently changed her name to Marilyn Chambers and became one of the most famous porn stars of the 1970s.
