The valley of the Fallen, an immense monument built by the dictator Francisco Franco as a mausoleum for himself and tens of thousands of the war dead, has long stoked passionate debate in Spain. The artificial granite ridge outside Madrid was carved by political prisoners on the losing side of the Spanish Civil War. For many Spaniards today, the surging 500ft cross which tops it is the most flagrant symbol of Franco-era repression.

But now this sombre site has aroused controversy for an unlikely reason: its use as a location in the filming of a satirical pornographic movie, Antonio Ramirez, the Fascist, set in 1960s Spain.

The plot revolves around a visit by the protagonist Antonio, his wife, his daughter, a maid and their “red” neighbour, to Franco's mausoleum, where thousands of Civil War victims are buried – often, in the case of the losing Republicans, against their families' will.

In a 2001 episode of Friends, Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) complains to a hotel clerk that she’s not to blame for some of the charges on her bill. “Sir, for the last time, I don’t care what the computer says. We did not take a bag of Mashuga Nuts from the minibar, and we did not watch Doctor Do-Me-a-Little.” This July, Friends got a porn parody of its own (see above), one of the many sitcom-based porn movies that have popped up in the past few years, some obvious (Three’s Company practically writes itself), others less so (Seinfeld? Honestly?). This recent spate of parody porn stems from the success of 2007’s Not the Bradys XXX. Jeff Mullen, who writes and directs under the name Will Ryder, helmed the Brady spoof and has since directed a sequel, as well as parodies of Bewitched, The Cosby Show, and most recently, Married With Children. He spoke to NEWSWEEK’s Joshua Alston.

What’s been up?

I’m feeling good. Just wrapped eight days of shooting the next episode of The Brady Bunch spoof. Incredible grueling hours. Whipping the cast into shape. Locking the doors, not letting them leave, that kind of thing.

So there’s a third one coming down the pike?

The third one is coming out at the end of October, and it’s the best one so far. We completely revamped and built all the sets from scratch rather than shoot in a house. And so we built the living room, everything. The set looks exactly like The Brady Bunch. It’s pretty impressive.

And the trailer is really funny but isn t that always the way. New Sensations 30 Rock A XXX Parody seems to get the comedy of our favorite sitcom and the chick playing Tina Fey is pretty hot too Her name is Lisa Ann who also played Sarah Palin and she leads a bunch of adult actors doing very good impersonations of Tracy Morgan Alec Baldwin Jane Krakowski and the rest of the gang. While we haven t seen any of the naked action what comes between the scenes is dead-on. If the actors can get that right than delivering a relentless rogering should be easy. Oh and wait for “I m a black robot motherfucker ” to be on a T-shirt in Times Square by the end of next week. If you want to buy the movie click here NSFW unless you work in a strip club . This new movie is the latest in a long line of smutty features based on beloved TV shows. How did this happen Well porn producers figured out that people like prepackaged commodities and that if they made these parodies then people like us would write about them and give them free advertising. Damn trapped again But this one appears really worth it. We re not falling into this trap again for The Fucks of Life.
