NC Film Incentives--Report from the Civitas Institute

NC  Taxpayer Dollars Finance “A Good Old Fashioned Orgy”

Debate over expanding North Carolina’s film incentive program prompted the Civitas Institute to investigate the types of movies produced here. Roughly $700,000 taxpayer dollars went to subsidize the production of a raunchy R-rated film entitled, “A Good Old Fashioned Orgy” in 2008. According to Internet previews of the film, the plot centers around a group of 30-somethings still living at home who decide to throw an end of summer party that turns into an orgy. The film’s parent company, GOF Productions, applied for and received film incentive credits from the North Carolina Department of Revenue totaling $713,104. The film has not yet been released in theaters.
