(2003, 65 min)
Country: Canada
Director: Gregory Duke
Studio: Iron Rod Motion Pictures
SYNOPSIS:
Cute boys literally take matters into their own hands when they decide to make an "artful" porn film in this wicked satire of sex, theater and cinema.REVIEW:
When their performance of "Greek Love," featuring actors in jockstraps and nametags, garners uniformly negative reviews, and their all-midget all-drag production of "Little Women" and an S/M adaptation of "Crime and Punishment" are both monumental flops, an avant-garde gay theatre troupe must resort to drastic fundraising efforts to pay their mortgage.
Their solution? Make a porn film entitled "Greek Love 2". Sure, the idea has its problems – too many of the guys auditioning are bottoms – but the company’s straight guy gets a copy of "Gay Sex for Imbeciles" and believes he can perform anal intercourse (as it is storyboarded using stick figures) for the sake of the film. Now, if someone could only answer the question – "Did the ancient Greeks shave their assholes?" – production could begin!
An uproarious comedy and an equal opportunity offender – the end credits offer "apologies" to Louisa May Alcott and "our parents," among others. Fluff features hilariously bad acting, (fake) cum shots, spanking, lots of boys in jockstraps and an unforgettable porn shoot complete with an oom-pah band and chorus singing to Beethoven's 9th Symphony. You will never look at the ancient Greeks the same way again!
