Avis en vedette
Some gonzo pornographers are not satisfied with the lucrative result of the public having gone over to all-sex porn at the expense of traditional Adult Cinema features. They presume to be artistes, avant-garde pioneers in search of praise and recognition. One such fellow hid behind the dumb pseudonym Visual Blurr to perpetrate "The Whore Within Me", a tedious 3-hour exercise with nothing to offer.
Max Hardcore began the race to the bottom nearly two decades earlier, but that doesn't stop other pretenders to his dubious (maximum) crown. Mr. Blurr has hired some talented folk like Bobbi Starr and Madison Young, both uninhibited in their porn aspirations, as well as journeyman hacks like Alex Gonz, and delivers five lengthy gross-out episodes.
One is supposed to be impressed with "pushing the boundaries" or some other cliché pornographers are wont to express when pretending to be "visionaries" (the No. 1 cliché of all). So these femmes, including Adrianna Nicole and Lorelei Lee, get physically abused in pursuit of sexual explicitness, staged in intentionally ugly settings to underscore the nihilistic atmosphere. Far from entertainment, the content is not edifying either, ugliness for ugliness sake.
Typical tropes include Adrianna as a bored housewife who feels she's in a rut; why not try debasement and humiliation instead? That will certainly perk up a humdrum existence. She confesses her wishes to the off-screen director (whose voice we hear) and soon enough there's d.p. action and other fun to watch.
Bobbi Starr is a schoolteacher who likewise descends to various forms of BDSM. Madison Young pretends she's a real-life streetwalker, and her utterly phony final segment is an insult to the viewer in the context of her imaginative other work as an actress and director.
Though it all adds up to one big goose egg, surprise, surprise; the industry award body nominated Mr. Blurr for a Best Director award some eight years ago. Thank God he hasn't been heard of since (though I assume he merely grabbed a new pseudonym and is out making gonzo crap under that handle).
