mini girls on film






looks like a 35mm film canister.... but... it is also a camera. hidden inside this oversized film canister is a 35mm camera, not a digital camera. the camera is a mini (i love mini things!) point and shoot that pops open to reveal the lens, flash and film holder inside.

AMAZING!

Edgar Hoover was revealed. Following that film, Williams moved on to a run of pornographic horror films before his quiet exile to Switzerland.
