William Higgins Has Died


Steve

Recommended Posts

Director William Higgins' XXX hit Pizza Boy: He Delivers (1985) remains one of the most iconic porn movies ever made. Today that phrase has become ingrained in pop culture as a reference to gay sex and adult films. That film and other standout hits like These Bases are Loaded, Cousins, and Sailor In The Wild from his catalog over 3,000 gay films in his 40-year career, has cemented Higgins' legacy as one of the most influential and beloved Gay Porn Directors of all time.

Sadly, back2stonewall.com reports today that Higgins, age 77, died from a heart attack in Amsterdam yesterday morning, December 21, 2019.

Higgins career began in the 70s when producers of adult content were pushing the envelope with regard to the 1st Amendment and other constitutional protections. Leading producers like Falcon Studios, headquartered in San Francisco, refused to ship movies to the bible belt so Higgins decided to make his own.

He founded Catalina Video and immediately established a reputation for casting young, fresh, handsome, hung models in full-length features with relatable story-lines. He directed gay porn superstars Jack Wrangler, Kip Noll, Rick Donovan, and John King, to name a few, and launched the careers of other industry giants like Chi Chi LaRue who shared sadness at the news on Twitter this morning.

Always a trailblazer and rebel, Higgins  was arrested and raided many times in the U.S. in Europe before he finally landed in Amsterdam and Prague where he found a plethora of exceptionally hot, handsome, well endowed European men to cast in his movies.

Higgins recently traveled to Los Angeles where was honored to be inducted into the GayVN Hall of Fame. He says in an interview with avn.com that he was astounded at how huge the industry has become. We owe a lot of it to you Mr. Higgins... RIP.

These Bases are Loaded was my first video. He made real movies about Real men doing what real men do. What true giant he was.
