Very Dark
I ordered this on a lark. It was cheap, and completed an order, to put it over the $35 threshold. So, I was surprised to find it much more sophisticated than I had expected.
There are no good guys in the movie. The main character is psychologically flawed. He has a mesmerizing effect on other people, and gets off on getting them, whether male or female, to fall in love with him. As soon as they do, he moves on. He finally meets a guy, goes through his routine, but them finds that the guy is as obsessive about keeping him as he is to leave. As can be anticipated, violence is the result. I won't ruin it by telling the end of the story. However, I will warn you that there are no happy endings in this movie. It is emotionally dark, right through the end. The only variation is the level of revulsion I felt for each of the characters.
There is one violent scene and some brief sexual content, both same-sex and opposite-sex, with male nudity, mostly from behind and in the dark. This movie isn't pornographic, but it also isn't appropriate for children.
