Trivia
This was the fifth appearance of cynical tabloid reported "Worm" Jenkins in a Cash Markman written script, most of which were directed by Scotty Fox. Buck O'Rogers played him first in 1987's "A Little Dove Tail." Jon Martin took over the role later that year for "The Main Attraction." Randy Spears came next, for 1990's "Anal Addictions." T.T. Boy stepped into Jenkin's cheap rubber souled shoes for 1991's "A Pussy to Die For." Of all these actors, Markman and Fox liked Spears' take on the character best, and brought him back for this movie.

Alternate versions
The version of this movie published on DVD is only 66 minutes long.

Intentionally poor

Taking a page out of the Troma Team playbook, "Elvis Slept Here" has the always-awful porn team of Scotty Fox and Cash Markman perpetrating a terrible movie on purpose. Note that Troma's owners started out as pornographers (their couple of XXX movies were far better than their subsequent mainstream-ish trash), before successfully exploiting the "so bad it's good" myth for fun and profit.

"Elvis" is an hour long, plus a 4-minute padded and fake end credits sequence: the names are silly and the professions have nothing to do with the movie, e.g., Animal Trainer and Helicopter Pilot. It's not even original: I had just seen the identical fake end credits on the video "L. A. Rear" made the same year and even crummier than this one.

The actors recite their lines in a monotone, dumb filler with Elvis song titles moronically integrated -how stupid can you get? The five sex scenes are mechanical and boring, mostly ending with a cum shot on the ass. Randy Spears plays the bored (and boring) tabloid reporter who adopts sort of a Jack Nicholson imitation vocal cadence. It's spoofing the National Enquirer/Star empire recently in the headlines thanks to the Trump Trial in NYC.

Jonathan Morgan is the only cast member who tries to imitate Elvis, wearing a lousy black wig and adopting a lousy Southern accent. Meekah co-stars as a fellow reporter competing with Spears to get a scoop or lose her job. -she has two sex scenes yet she's omitted from the screen credits.
