Arrow Productions, the company that owns the copyright of 'Deep Throat', is suing the producers of the new movie 'Lovelace' in a bid to block its release.

According to the lawsuit, Arrow originally allowed producers of a similar film called 'Inferno' to use scenes from the porn flick, but it didn't give permission to the producers of 'Lovelace', TMZ reported.

Arrow Productions is crying foul play because 'Lovelace' includes three scenes from 'Deep Throat'.

Arrow has demanded at least 10 million dollars and an order blocking release of the movie.

Sources revealed that as funds for 'Inferno' ran out, they planned to make 'Lovelace' instead.
