I've never heard of him. How about a brief synopsis of the the highlights that got him convicted.
Seriously, though, how much "uglier' or more "offensive" (or what ever?!?) could it be than what much of the rest of the porn industry distributes.
... or did he pay off the members of the court to convict him as a promotional ploy?
That's odd. He's very well known in Europe, but not in America.
Short description from his own website: Who the Hell is Max Hardcore?
"Max Hardcore entered the porn scene in 1990. As a photographer in Key West, Florida, Max enjoyed tricking tourist girls into posing for him on the beach, his goal was to get them naked for his camera, and making private fuck videos with him. Max was a porn fan then, but was unsatisfied with what he saw in adult movies of the time. So Max moved to Los Angeles to make his style of hard-core fuck films, nastier and more vulgar than ever before seen!
Starting with making loops for Bobby Hollander's famous Mr. Peepers series in 1991, Max soon established a unique identity. He then created his own series, the award winning AnalVision line, and went on to produce 28 volumes, and launch the career of many well know starlets including Vixxxen and Tammi Ann. Max also did the only anal scene with superstar Tammi Monroe.
Max’s next big break came early in 1992, when he created The Anal Adventures of Max Hardcore. When it was first released, even industry veterans were shocked, and several distributors refused to carry the line. Max would pick sluts young and old, and use their fuck-holes for his own pleasure, while degrading and humiliating them.
The next milestone for Max came in early 1994 when Max shocked the establishment again with his Cherry Poppers series. Breaking new ground, and old rules, portraying innocent young girls with pig-tails and hairless pussies submitting to disgustingly vile treatment!
In 1995 Max created of Hardcore Schoolgirls, with even stronger and more unmerciful treatment of the young things Max would pick up and sexually degrade! The series was so harsh that it was banned in the U.S. and Sweden in 1997!
As Max’s began to travel to find new girls, he launched Max World, which took Max and his crew to Paris, Germany, Amsterdam, the Cannes Film Festival, the Monaco Grand Prix, Rio de Janeiro, and Sao Paulo Brazil.
During these years Max also developed new and unique methods of sexual mistreatment. Among other things, Max pioneered Throat Fucking, Splatter Cam, the Pile Diver, Anal Gaping, and the misuse of medical speculums!
Max releases two new movies each month, and is the only US director to make a 'Euro' version of his movies, where the girls get fist-fucked and guzzle his piss! His current lines include Planet Max, Extreme Schoolgirls, Pure Max, Universal Max, and The Max Faktor.
It just keeps on getting better for the loyal fans of this most unique performer and director. As Max says, ‘The best is yet to come!’
Max has a huge website, and releases dozens of new movies each year, with gorgeous girls getting anally & throat-drilled, fist-fucked, and guzzling his piss. Max has clearly changed the way porn is made, and re-written the rules in over 300 movies since 1990.
Max is the award winning creator of Cherry Poppers, Max Extreme, Hardcore Schoolgirls, Max World, Anal Auditions, Planet Max, Golden Guzzlers, Pure Max, The Max Faktor, Extreme Schoolgirls, and Fists of Fury.
Max’s girls are like no others. Adorable dolls with shaved slits and slim bodies. They wear cute outfits, ponytails, high heels, and talk right to you as they get savagely sodomized - often for the first time. It’s hard to believe that such innocent looking girls will submit to these vile perversions.
Max also shoots classy broads who think they know what's going on - until they get their throats and asses reamed by Max!
Max fucks chicks he finds the way you like to - getting cute cunts on his couch. Using their tight holes to pleasure his stiff cock. Max turns ordinary teens and mother's alike into
piss and cum-splattered sluts before your eyes.
Max wastes no time, gagging girls on his cock and
pissing down their throats before he even learns their email addresses! Max is the originator of rectal-boring action - gaping assholes, and fisting cunts.
Max also uses speculums to pry-open their fuck-holes so you can look deep inside.
He’ll spray his cum and piss into the gaping tunnels, even making them drink it out of their ass! Whether its naïve teen or classy broad, Max delivers the same ruthless treatment.

He's been charged and on trials many times before but always been freed. This time, however, it seems like the moralists, that he has provoked for so long, have finally gotten him.
