ABOUT THE FILM*
“There’s only one way to overcome temptation – by giving into it!”

Acclaimed ’70s avant-garde erotic filmmaker Peter de Rome and narrative porn masters Hand in Hand Films bring a balanced measure of storyline, emotion, and steamy sex to this classic gay horror/porn hybrid, which is simultaneously artful, campy, and haunting.

Loosely based on a Poe story, the film focuses on Caswell Campbell, a priest in training on sabbatical, torn between the call of the cloth and his pent-up lust. Religious repression leads to internal – and physical – fragmentation as Caswell repeatedly glimpses his sexually ravenous doppelgänger and is drawn into a bizarre underworld of psychedelic supernatural sex, with rough and kinky action and surreal, stylized sex scenes abounding!
