The Jade Pussycat, a cat figurine with mysterious powers and worth half
a million dollars, has been stolen. But have no fear as Johnny Wadd
(the legendary John Holmes) is on the case and he's willing to go to
any lengths find Pual, his friend's brother, and get the pussycat get
back (and with Holmes that a LOT of length). But the bad guys are after
the figurine as well after realizing the one they have is a
counterfeit. Written and directed by porn revolutionary, Bob Chinn,
this film takes you back to a day when you had a compelling story with
your hot sex. Word of warning tho, there IS a rape scene, so beware of
that. Also be aware that it ends on somewhat of a cliffhanger, so it's
advised that you watch "the China Cat" soon after you finish this film.

A classic golden age Johnny Wadd film from the good ole year of 1977. This
one involves Mr.Wadd (..call me Johnny) involved in investigating a
dissapearance that involves him in the search of the sought after Jade
Pussycat worth half a million dollars. This was when porno producers
actually cared about the movie rather than "wham bam thank you ma'am" sex
every second. Linda Wong looks lovely as does Georgina Spelvin who has
never
looked lovier (cause in DMJ she was quite the..woof woof)..definitly check
it out..one of the best
10/10

As far as I'm concerned, Johnny Wadd will always be the definitive
recurring
film character. Practically overflowing with charisma, John C Holmes seems
apt at sticking his personality in all the right places.
This Holmes classic finds Johnny Wadd on the trail of A fabled Jade
Pussycat, which is very valuable and in danger of coming into the possesion
of an evil gangster. It's up to Johnny and his 13 inch partner to fight
and charm his way through femme fatals, sleazy lowlives, and coming face to
face with the jade pussycat before it's to late.
If John Holmes credibility as an actor, and not just a phallic symbol were
ever doubted, The Jade Pussycat, singlehandedly dispells any such
thoughts.
One of the big man's best.

While most of the acting is subpar (excluding Georgina Spelvin), this
is perhaps one of the better-made films of the "Johnny Wadd" detective
series. The exterior shots in San Francisco lend to the overall feel of
this film. Remember, during the Golden Age of Porn, there were only two
locales where one could shoot: San Francisco (not The Valley) and New
York City. In an age where today's run of the mill porn is filled with
silicon, bad tattoos, bikini lines & gonzo camera-work, "The Jade
Pussycat" comes as a breath of fresh air. Sidenote: look for a cameo by
director Bob Chinn. -D, NYC "You think it's easy? I'd like to see Sir

The Jade Pussycat (1977) was one of the most popular porn films from the
70's. The legendary John Holmes plays the
sleazy Private Eye, Johnny Wadd. He's been hired to find the mysterious
"Jade pussycat". This idol has a great powers,
sexual powers. It can increase a person's sex drive into hyper-speed. Many
people are looking for this statue. Who needs
viagra when you have the "jade Pussycat"? Bob Chinn directed and shot this
movie on 16mm, grainy film stock. He
also appears uncredited as the leader of a chinese syndicate looking for the
idol. As usual "Johnny Wadd"
puts in some work, hitting it from all sides. Throw in a couple of
girl-on-girl scenes, gratuitous "shots" of John Holmes
"stout fellow" and viola! Instant cult status. Unlike most porno
productions the direction is good and it has a decent
storyline.
