Lust Never Lasts (Filipino Mini-Series)

WTF is this show? Like seriously.. It is like written by a 10 year old, directed by a 13  year old and is full of absolutely ridiculous stuff. 5 minutes into the show, and you should be quick to realize what you have signed up for. With 6 episodes of 10 minutes each, this show has got to be the WORST BL I have seen from Philippines and thats country has produced some other really awful shows. It is so badly produced in every way that any meanings or messages are mute

The show is about 4 friends and tries to deal with sexuality (bisexuality, trans etc). Alden, the main character just finds out his boyfriend and true love in itersex (in a worst handled sensitive topic).  He also cheated on Johnny with Kim, and at this point I have completely lost interest in what is this show actually trying to say. Screenplay had numerous senseless lines. Aside from incest, problematic stereotypes, not only of bisexuals and intersexuals but other queers, dominated its nauseating screenplay. It's highly regressive. After some rather ridiculous drama, one of the guy comes out as woman. Whaaaat !!

This nonsense is beyond any doubt the worst cringe worthy stuff out there anywhere. The handling of sensitive and serious topics like bisexuality and intersexuality was dreadful. The creators of this series should educate themselves about these topics to avoid propagating problematic stereotypes. Script had so many misinformed lines. Acting is terrible, worst and MOST awful. The actors need to undergo acting workshops! Production technicals were very poor. DO NOT watch this show even if someone pays you for it. Run! Run! Run! (0/10)

Sei no Gekiyaku (Japanese) [Dangerous Drugs of Sex]

Every person has their own unique way of dealing with loss. This film is as much a psychological thriller as it is a soft porn BDSM portrayal of two young men that makes the film overall horrifying as well as humane. It is really hard to describe the genre of this film in one word. Its important not that the film has some really disturbing scenes so if you go into seeing this film, please proceed with caution. Although any sexual non-consensual activity is not ok, this film has its won strange way of showing that suicide is not the only solution to all life's problems. Makoto is a regular office goer, who just finds out that his girlfriend is probably cheating on him. ON top of it, his parents sudden death coming back from a trip that he forced them to take, he gets completely dejected and decides to commit suicide. Unknown to him, he is saved by mysterious man Yoda Ryoji, and he wakes up finding himself tied up in leather and belts in a very BDSM setting. This mysterious saver soo...

Drug Shore (Chinese)

Apparently tis film was adapted by a true story Well, true or not, movies/series about drugs are not easy to watch. I have always said that drugs is like the end of life for anyone. For those who sink into this sea of addiction, some manage to swim upstream to recovery, while others cannot make it to the shore. The film may not be the best, but it does have a noble intention to remind everyone of the evil affects of drugs and combining that with sex. Ah Zhe is in a happy relationship with his influencer boyfriend. On his partner's birthday, they end up going to a party, which interestingly is being hosted at a drug dealer's house and this is where for the first time he is exposed to the world of drugs. The duo somehow do it just enough and come back home but next day Ah She gets invited by the dealer Xiao Fei for a meal. The dealer has a soft corner for Ah Zhe, but before anyone realizes, Ah Zhe's life spirals out of control when slowly he starts doing more and more drugs, ...

The Shortest Distance is Round 3: Fallen Flowers

Continuing with the weird trilogy of "The Shortest Distance", I am so glad that finally I am done with part 3 and won't have to deal with this again in future. Thankfully, as of now the makers have not announced any further parts; which will save all of us on this earth from the embarrassment of watching this in near future. After the first 10 minutes are used in sort of recapping bits of first two parts, the story moves forward. Haruto is now starting to have feelings for Ruka, the mysterious pole dancer from second part. In a fit of rage, Ruka ends up killing the goat man and to save him and Haruto, Shibahara asks them to go underground. Meanwhile Shibahara continues the search for Seiya (the guy who had cut off Haruto's penis). It turns out Seiya is now also taking care of the original club owner from part 1. Both of them were released after they had informed Shibahara of Aoyama's secret location. Shibahara tortures Seiya's boyfriend leading to Seiya killin...
