Actor Nicholas Campbell created this gritty Canadian film that contains some real interesting scenes and plot, and also filled it with some real shocking scene like the scene of a young man getting branded in his behind viciously by a group of guys wearing a jockstrap, which was something right out of William Friedkin's CRUSING. And also the relationship between Eugene Lipinski as a possessive cop who holds a young gay mans letter from his mother "hostage" and makes him do his dirty deeds was very powerful! And great supporting turn by Jan Rubes, Kenneth Welsh, Leslie Hope, Lenore Zann and David Cronenberg as a famous actor visiting the nightclub! It's a must see to any tour de force film lovers. I am surprised Blockbuster Video would get exclusive rights to a non-commerical film like this. They are very brave.
