He looked innocent enough.
Fair-haired. Young. Sweet-faced.
But, once the lights went down – and his four short films (FOURPLAY) splashed across the screen at the DGA – it struck me that the director (Kyle Henry) was twisted!
The films started off okay!
But, shortly after the characters were professionally introduced, Henry suddenly hurled a curve ball or two the audiences way.
In one short, when a young male trots into a mensroom in search of anonymous sex, he stumbles upon Christ crouched on the floor under three (!) urinals.
Symbolic?
Sick?
Or, just a Catholic feeling pangs of guilt?
In the stall, as the lad waits for a “sign” from a gent in the next stall, a dude suddenly drops a sloppy load (yuck!) which stinks to high hell.
The audience groans in disgust.
Juvenile!
In a second flick, a quirky middle-aged gal is asked to house-sit a young couple’s pouch. A short while later, as a series of bizarre events unfold, the homely woman ends up engaging in hot ‘n heavy sex with the family pet. A touch of comedy added to mix makes for a scenario that is – not only totally outrageous – but enough to demand censorship action from the morality squad.
Uh-huh!
Totally debauched!
But, it is the final segment that totally turns-the-stomach.
A transsexual prostitute is hired by a woman in an upscale enclave to service her husband surviving on a life-support system. Before the lady-of-the-night embarks on the tease, she establishes a code with the "John", so she can hit all the right passionate buttons. Since he can’t talk, it's established that he blinks twice when the answer to a question is “yes” and blinks once when the response is “no”. In this way, the sex worker is able to please his fantasy and whim during the course of their paid date.
The image of a transsexual in sheer panties and bra, with a dick hanging out, is just too kinky (and sick) for most to endure. But, when she actually starts fucking his toe, well – Henry has really crossed the line – hasn’t he?
As she drives off in a limo smoking a cigarette, she gives the impression that she thinks of herself as a some kind of Mother Theresa!
In my humble the opinion?
"Fourplay" should be banned.
It’s sick, crosses the line, and degrades the human body and spirit.
It gets an “F” for “Fucked up”.
