Preaching To The Perverted

Who ever said Love wasn't Painful??
Preaching To The Perverted is a visually stunning foray into the bondage nightclub scene, with a surprisingly gentle and heart-warming love story behind it.

The photography, costumes, cast, settings, effect, and music all combine into an exquisitely beautiful and erotic film. If you want dirty "spank me till I bleed" cinema, this is *not* your film. PTTP is a gorgeous visual delight with an industrial/club soundtrack and a lot of eye candy.

There is beauty, love, humor, and yes...a bit of "strapped down" stimulation. Rather like a more risque Exit To Eden, with the stage beauty of All That Jazz.

The Story? Young Peter, played by Christien Anholt (Marcellus in Mel Gibson's Hamlet and a bit part in Power of One) is recruited by Henry Harding (Tom Bell), member of Parliament who heads the United Front Opposing Filth.

Hilarious, sexy, exciting. I hope they make a sequel with the same cast.

Amazingly fun movie...
If you have any interest in BDSM at all, this movie will be a lot of fun for you. It's not a pillar of the genre that all members of the community should see at all costs, but it is certainly vastly entertaining.
