Run, don't walk to the nearest video store and get Sodomized. That's an order. With the subtitle The Rectum Never Forgets, you know you are in for some fun. Director Michael Zen has outdone himself once again with a video that has it all. His progressive directing skills have made him a legend on the straight side of the business, and we are fortunate to have his talent shared with us. The wild script by Dan Thomas is filled with off-the-wall characters,and the cast magnificently brings them to life.
If he had ever left, this could be considered Kurt Young's "big" comeback performance. He is simply brilliant as a young military veteran we meet at a cruisy park in Washington D.C. He has a sign that says he will work for food. Off-duty District Attorney Eric Evans has a different take on what he should do. After a strange conversation, Young agrees to get paid for sex. In a shabby shack, Evans goes down on the ex-soldier's big boner. To preserve wear on your remote button, the video fast forwards through the taking off of their clothes. How inventive! They trade nice suck action. Evan's ass is fingered, but it's Young who gets fucked as the customer call the shots. They later flip-flop, delivering even more hot pump action. The scene's end, though sort of expected, is well done.
I am leaving out some of the surprises in the plot so as not to diminish your enjoyment. Suffice it say that Young lands in trouble and ends up in a conference room with a judge and his attorney to prove his sanity. Right there, he gets the uncontrollable urge to jerk off. The action is crazy yet sexy as Young whips his dick out and starts beating off on the table, sending the judge fleeing out of the room in disgust.
After such a performance, it is no surprise that Young's troubles get even worse. He is reprimanded to the State Psychiatric Hospital, otherwise known as Sodom, where the staff is more insane than the patients. There is a wild scene in the examination room as sadistic nurse Will Clark rapes Young with a dildo until the star cums. Then he and twisted head doctor Derek Bishop turn their attention to intake patient Emilio Sands. Clark is sucked before he buries his bone into the brunet's tight hole. The hot fuck action continues when doctor Bishop takes a crack at that ass. Later, Clark takes a ride on the doctor's wand.
You feel reminiscent of the movie One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest as we meet more of the patients in what's called the Lunatic Room. Director Zen employs gritty dialogue and special effects to expand the insanity. Deranged ex-soldiers Doug Jeffries and Dino DiMarco enjoy their daily "sex-thirty" drill. The video fast forwards through the removing of the clothes. As his prick is sucked, Jeffries never lets up on the trash talk. DiMarco isn't having an "up" day, so they abort a brief attempt at sucking his meat.
I was thinking, jokingly, that this would be a good time for DiMarco to make his debut on the bottom. Then, surprisingly, he does. If this is not his first time on bottom, I haven't seen him do it in quite a while, if ever. Jeffries gives DiMarco a run for his money, riding that ass nice and hard. DiMarco takes it like a man and finally gets it up for their cum shots.
Of the hospital's colorful cast of residents, Jack Simmons stands out as the most dynamic. As Maxine, he plays a gender-confused neurotic, who manages to steal every scene that he's in. In elaborate drag, Simmons can pass for a diva. Simmons has a patio scene with Emilio Sands. With him wearing only makeup, they swap decent sucking. Then they have a long mutual J/O session as several fantasy scenarios are shown in black-and-white.
I can't begin to fully describe the next series of outlandish events - nor should I. In the video's climax, everything spins out of control. The psychiatric staff use the facility to pursue their hedonistic ends. Dr. Bishop later turns into the Marquis De Sade. A dream machine is introduced to usher in more topnotch special effects. Other themes include forced sex, torture and mind control. The over-the-top proceedings reach a head when a colonic is used as a murder weapon. Who'da thunk it?
Believe it or not, in the midst of the insanity, there is a bittersweet love story as Young searches for his long-lost army pal, Steve Cannon. The final sex scene is a flashback to the two of them having a furtive romp on the battlefield. They swap nicely hard oral action, then Young pounds a well-captured fuck into the tattooed, brunet Cannon. A very satisfying scene.
Don't watch this flick without a sense of humor - the more twisted, so much the better. Kurt Young is an early front runner in this year's race for Best Actor. I wouldn't be surprised to see several of the supporting actors also get the nod (Simmons, Clark and Bishop). The video should also be recognized for its direction, great screenplay and topnotch music score. Suffice it to say that One Flew Over the Cuckcoo's Nest is benign kids' play compared to this. You will want to get Sodomized again and again.
