“The one who lies to himself and believes his own lies comes to a point where he can distinguish no truth either within himself or around him and thus enters a state of disrespect towards himself and others. Respecting no one, he loves no one, and to amuse and divert himself in the absence of love he gives himself up to his passions and to vulgar delights and becomes a complete animal in his vices, and all of it from perpetual lying to other people and himself.”

gregg: my Popcorn Classic today is "Bondage Ecstasy" (1989). This is... when it comes down to it, this is a movie about a man who turns into a fly and gets into some more uh- risque situations. i would say this is a movie you'd watch alone, or maybe with a fellow movie buff who appreciates uh- a more experimental kind of movie.

tim: is this porn?

gregg: no, its uh- its a horror movie, with more erotic scenes and uh- scenarios. in league with movies like "Eyes Wide Shut" (1999), with Tom Cruise your favorite, and "The Fly" (1986).

[tim takes the tape and looks at it]

tim: what is this- this is just se- uh- smut! or sleev- uh- sleaze.

gregg: no, its not. it has a story. do you- is "Eyes Wide Shut" just smut? its a movie, tim.

tim: that's- whatever.
