The Genesis Children was a 1972 film produced by Billy Byars, Jr. owner of Lyric International, and features many of the young actors who appeared in Lyric's short naturist features and many magazines.
The movie premiered at the Encore movie theater in Los Angeles on August 4, 1972. The Los Angeles Times summarizes its review, "'The Genesis Children' a Gambol on the Beach" by Kevin Thomas as, "There's enough earnestness to "The Genesis Children' (at the Encore) to allow for the possibility that its makers had something more in mind than an adolescent male nudie."[Los Angeles Times,Aug 5, 1972 p B5]
The film received an X rating from the MPAA.
- "' The Genesis Children is really a very benign film. It was only the cumulative amount of nudity and the closeup shots of the pelvic area that brought about the X decision. Even the violence of the scene in which the boys attack the bus is well within the R category,' said Dr. Aaron Stern, director of MPAA's code and rating administration." [Viola Hegyi Swisher, "Generating The Genesis Children", After Dark, September 1972, p. 18].
Display ads ran through Sept 6, so presumably the film had at least that long a run.
The film was directed by Anthony Aikman.
