(Hollywood, CA) Multi-award-winning, prolific director Jim Powers’ campy sci-fi horror adventure-filled feature, “Transpirella,” inspired by the comic book Vampirella, has been a massive hit with the members watching each episode on Gender X Films’ site. Now the fifth and final episode is available today, and it all ends with a takedown and an unforgettable orgy.
Episode 5 of “Transpirella” opens with the lead character (played by Ariel Demure) being ambushed in the hallway, knocked out by cloaked cultists, chained up to be sacrificed to Satan, and surrounded by chanting weirdos and trans demons Avery Lust and Andylynn Payne. Satan and his huge dick join the party, and a wild orgy breaks out. Using this as her chance to break free, Transpirella grabs demon cocks, and turns the tables, screwing both demons. She spots her dildo, dives for it, and shoves it up Satan’s ass, causing an explosion that sends him packing. Transpirella, Femdragon (Kasey Kei), Dr. Van Helsing (Joel Someone), and his daughter Eve (Gracie Jane) celebrate at home their takedown of Dracula and Satan.
“Transpirella” also stars Dom Cruise, Jade Venus, Gal Ritchie, and Haven Rose. Jim wrote, directed, and produced the feature.
“This feature is epic. If you missed any of it, you can now watch ‘Transpirella’ from start to finish. The last episode ends with a takedown and orgy, and good wins over evil, with Satan and Dracula both going down, but not before they both get fucked. This truly is the feel-good movie of the year,”
says Jim Powers.
Watch the trailer and all five episodes on the Gender X website genderxfilms.com/en/movie/Transpirella/141349. The feature will be released on DVD and VOD later this month in time for awards season.

ABOUT JIM POWERS
Jim Powers is one of the most prolific directors of our time who’s always been known for being controversial and once told Forbes he wants to be the Warren Buffett of porno. Growing up in the Valley in the 1970s, Jim was influenced by comic books, horror movies, fan magazines, and skateboarding, and in the 1980s, all he wanted to do was be a punk rocker and skateboarder. After graduating from Cal State Northridge, he became a stockbroker, a DVD distributor, and a part-time pornographer.
In 1992, while gambling in Bally’s in Vegas, Jim wandered into the AVN Awards and decided he could make a better movie than most people there for $5k—he and his friend put up $2500 each to make “The Hills Have Thighs.” Kevin Beachum of Midnight Pictures encouraged him to shoot amateurs on the beach, even though he had never even picked up a camera. While shooting on the beach in Malibu, his set was shut down, and he was hit with felony charges of pandering and conspiracy. He continued to shoot at private houses and swinger parties for Beachum and other companies to cover his legal bills.
In 1993, a chance meeting with Jeff Mike of JM Productions led to history when the two joined forces, regularly pushing the limits of sex while still staying out of prison. Jim helped them roll out their bukkake line and invented American Bukkake—Downtown Larry Melrose from the Howard Stern Show was frequently on his sets. Jim had his own company, Powersville, and directed for legendary adult studios Heatwave, Mayhem, Sin City, Notorious, Immoral Productions, and Smash Pictures. Currently, he directs for Gender X, Devil’s Film, BiPhoria, Dogfart, Zero Tolerance, Adult Time, Transfixed, Fantasy Massage, and Addicted to Girls, and averages over 300 scenes per year. In 2023, ASN Lifestyle Magazine profiled him with a 10-page feature.
With 50 performer credits and thousands of scenes as a director, Jim won Director of the Year (Body of Work) and Best Director – Non-Feature from the AVN Awards and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 2005. He’s also scored countless AVN Awards nominations for Best Director, Best Director – Feature, Director of the Year: Individual Project, Best Directing Portfolio – Specialty, Best Director – Parody, Director of the Year (Body of Work), Director – Non-Feature, and Best Videography, as well as Gonzo Director of the Year from the XBIZ Awards, Best Producer Nominee from the TEAs, Best Director – Parody from XRCOs, and Top BDSM Release from AEBN’s VOD Awards.
During the Black Flag era, Jim sported a mohawk and toured in punk rock bands. He still plays bass in the punk rock band Killroy at high-end venues like Roxy, Viper Room, and Knitting Factory.
