CGiii Comment

You will always find me bashing one out in the toilet at parties...will young filmmakers ever get over their dreary fascination with masturbation?

Statutory rape, blackmail and a gobby little queen...it all amounts to being an unpleasant, unpalatable, immature work of predictable inconsequence.
