This is getting weird. An attorney and occasional actor volunteered to appear for a few seconds as one of the people who talk about Wolf's background in a TV ad.

The Republican Governors Ass. (which is Corbett's main source of money) then starts to spread an attack that the actor had once appeared in a "porn" movie. A little bit of blowback occurs when it turns out that the current Republican candidate for the 46th district Senate seat, Camera Bartolotta, was the producer of that supposed porn movie, and the director twice ran as a Republican for a State House seat.

Now, it turns out it wasn't a porn movie at all. Instead, it was a low-budget gross horror film.

Update: The guy in the ad is Alan Benyak, an attorney in western PA. He is a one-time special assistant U.S. Attorney, and was an army lawyer who served in the Kuwait/Iraq War.
