The Fluffer - Fluff This,
Baby!
by Tallulah Givehead
The
Fluffer is a gripping and sexy fictional drama that
manages to expose the nasty underbelly of the gay
porn business while illustrating its allure. Ta
thought that she'd certainly be titillated bah the
purported underbelly of porn. Hah!
The Fluffer is
Wash West's first non-adult film and a tale of
obsession. Sean McGinnis (Michael
Cunio) has been renting the classics and by
error gets Citizen Cum instead of Citizen Kane. So
starts a tale of sexual obsession that changes the
course of Sean's life and brings great drama to the
screen. The star of Citizen Cum is Johnny Rebel (Scott
Gurney) a hot "gay for pay" porn star with drug,
relationship and stability problems. Sean becomes so
smitten with Johnny that he applies for work at "Men
of Janus" - the studio that produces the source of
Sean's bliss. Sean gets a job on the set of Johnny's
next film and goes beyond camerawork to perform a
job that most gay men would pay to do. He becomes a
fluffer who performs oral sex so that the porn
performer is hard on camera. After servicing him,
Sean becomes even more enamored with Johnny whose
life is spiraling out of control. Johnny's
girlfriend Babylon (Roxanne
Day) locks him out of the house and his drug use
is grows exponentially. There is some nasty violence
and the two guys go on a journey that will change
the course of their lives.
No. No. No. Wrong ending. C'mon folks. You spend the
whole movie having Sean seem to get it together,
making it in LA and he's even kinda smart .. then he
totally loses his mind and throws it all away only
to become some homo drifter in Mexico. Sheesh. Ta
just wanted to kick Sean’s ass! Maybe it’s the
muther in me but Ta’s wig was frazzled watchin
this boy get used. Tie up those loose ends next
time!
