I can understand 3D porn movies at home, but IMAX 3D porn? Who wants to sit through two hours of explicit 60-foot tall 3D sex scenes, no matter how engrossing the plot could be? With other people around, I mean.

But that’s exactly what Stephen Shiu is proposing for his 3-D Sex & Zen: Extreme Ecstasy, which is “being touted the first IMAX 3D pornographic film,” according to Reuters. An erotic fantasia set in a subterranean sex lair from ancient china. It’s based on a classic Chinese erotic story called The Carnal Prayer Mat, the tale of a man who meets a duke that introduces him to a world of luxurious orgies.
The director says that the $3 million film, which is being produced in Hong Kong using IMAX cameras, will be explicit:
The sex scenes are explicit and sometimes violent, but the main theme of the story is love. There will be many close-ups. It will look as if the actors are only a few centimeters from the audience.
He claims that people don’t want “just erotica, they want some wow factor!” I think he may be right, but I don’t know how many people would like to watch a gigantic penis waving in 3D a few centimeters from their faces. Anyway, at least the 3D glasses will also serve as protection.
Whatever happens with this, I really want him to set cameras in the IMAX theater, just to see the reactions of crowd. [Reuters]
