In addition, the company also earned six additional award nominations including contract stars Hillary Scott and Paulina James for Female Performer of the Year and Best New Starlet, respectively.
Major award winners for last year’s politically inspired "Corruption," SexZ Pictures has quickly risen from a producer of teen-influenced movies to major player in the feature movie category, a representative said. With "Upload" at a reported $375,000 cost, the company said it is committed to entertaining its audience in a blockbuster type of way.
“Upload is really a masterpiece in every way possible and we’re very happy that we’ve received this much attention from the nominations committee,” SexZ Pictures CEO Bo Kenney said. “This will help spread the word that 'Upload' is really an epic adult movie that everyone should see much like what happened with 'Corruption' last year.”
Starring Best Actress nominee Eva Angelina and Best Supporting Actress nominee and reigning 2007 Female Performer of the Year Hillary Scott, the talented duo provides a powerful one-two punch that showcases their many special gifts in a way not normally associated with an adult movie, the company said.
“These girls can really act quite well,” Kenney said. “We’ve always known that both of them can perform amazing sex scenes but what we learned from Hillary this past year with respect to acting chops, we’re now seeing with Eva.”
"I’m thankful Eli and Bo had such faith in me in being able to carry a role this big," Angelina said. "I had never been given the opportunity to act with so many emotions so for me to have been able to pull it off really is an accomplishment and I hope there will be more big roles like this in the future."
For SexZ Pictures contract superstar Hillary Scott, she said, “'Upload' was completely different from any movie I’ve ever done and to play an interesting supporting character like Tesla was intense."
"Upload," with a cast of 40, is the boldest movie of the year and is available in stores and also at SexZ.com, where the four-disc directors cut is raising eyebrows coast to coast, according to a representative.
