King Cobra

2016 · 93 min

A grimy, seductive true-crime plunge into ambition and obsession that leaves a sour taste long after it ends.

Tagline: Sex is not a game, it's business.
Overview: It’s 2006, YouTube is in its infancy, and internet porn is still behind a paywall. Taking the stage name Brent Corrigan, a fresh-faced, wannabe adult video performer is molded into a star by Stephen, a closeted gay porn mogul who runs the skin flick empire Cobra Video from his seemingly ordinary suburban home.
How it feels: Dark, cynical, tense and melancholic. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Obsession, ambition, betrayal, crime
Content: Strong violence, sexual content and language. Mild gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
