Porno (2020) review

There is a certain risk titling a film Porno, one of those being the perception of exactly what the movie is about and how to find information about that film online. However, it is one certain way to ensure that horror fans with a love for anything schlocky, sleazy and somewhat silly will flock to see what could be an x-rated cult classic. Director Keola Racela and writers Laurence Vannicelli and Matt Black, have taken the comedy horror genre and added their own pornographic stamp to it, but does the film ever really live up to its title?

Porno is set inside a movie theatre in the 90s, which is run by the exceptionally religious Mr. Pike (played by William Phillips). One evening he entrusts the running of the place to Assistant Manager Chaz (played by Jillian Mueller) and the rest of the team, leaving them to screen the rest of the movies and then be responsible enough to screen a movie for themselves. After much debate about what film they should watch, the group of religiously-repressed teens stumble upon a goldmine of x-rated exploitation films. They seal their fate by choosing one to watch, and soon they realise they have unleashed a succubus that is hellbent on taking their virginity, their dignity and most importantly, their souls.
