I have all of Radley Metzger's films on one format or another. I've yet to see the porn films he did under the name Henry Paris, "The Opening of Misty Beethoven" being one of them. I see it was at the top of the list in your link. Heck, I've done research on this and have a list, albeit very short, of what are considered some of the best from a film-making point of view. I don't discriminate against genres, just bad movies. I plan to get the following:
The Opening of Misty Beethoven
The Devil in Miss Jones
Behind the Green Door
something by Joe Sarno - not sure what though and it might not be porn, but "erotica"

Also, I have quite a few Jess Franco and Jean Rollin titles and other "Eurotrash" films. That's not meant as a slight against Europe. It's just what we called them back in the 90s when a buddy of mine and I used books and underground magazines to find trashy movies from around the world. We ordered from mail order catalogs from places like Trash Palace, Video Search of Miami, Midnite Video and others. All were "import video" companies. Most of the prints were horrible. Some were recorded from European television. Some didn't even have English subtitles, but there was no other way to see these films in the States.

Then, I got married. Not long ago, however, I watched an old "trailer" tape from Video Search of Miami with clips from many trashy films from Europe, Asia and South America. Fun stuff!
