AVN Zero Tolerance
VENICE, CA  – It was the biggest movie of the year for Mike Quasar and Zero Tolerance and last weekend all the hard work and talent paid off! Shades of Scarlet 2: Higher Power took home the trophy for both BDSM Release of the Year and Best Scene for a Feature Movie for the sizzling tryst featuring A.J. Applegate & Mr. Pete.

“This is my one pet project that I really obsessed over and I’m ecstatic with the results,” explains Quasar. “Everyone brought their best to the set and it shows and I thank them all very much. I’m honored my baby won. I feel really lucky right now.”

Hopefully that luck will hold this week in Vegas at the AVN Awards, where the movie is up for both a Best Director nomination as well as Best BDSM. As for Quasar, he’s just proud to see his company’s hard work recognized.

“We’re honored to have scored so many nominations,” the Hall of Fame director continued. “It is gratifying to be recognized for all of the hard work we do at Zero Tolerance and its sister companies all year.
