Then Otto or, Up with Dead People (2008) chronicles with a gory finesse the plight of a carnivorous, neo-Goth gay zombie. Gerontophilia (2013) focuses on a young man discovering he has the hots for the male geriatric clientele of a nursing home. Think of Trader Joe’s on a Sunday afternoon. male prostitution that includes a white, very blond boytoy being consensually gangbanged by a very long line of African American hunks. Hustler White (1996) stars an ex-beau of Madonna’s in an ode to L.A.

Being a soldier in the Female Liberation Army can be bloody tiring.
