CGiii Comment

The premise kind of stinks...

A plump, aging gay man rescues a 16 year old girl from being raped...and then, from her locked bedroom.....they embark on a sexual relationship while he still fucks older men...awful.

An ill-conceived, clumsily directed, pointless piece of nonsense.


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...
