Dwoskin Rising (when we met...)

Great annoyance. Pain. Pain is. You want to know what pain is? Then you definitely need to take a look at this movie. Watching the nonsense on your screen in that case would most surely assure you what the meaning of pain should be, at least according to the director. Dwoskin makes movies like Wathol sits on the toolet; only in that case it would be at least interesting to watch; here we face difficulty hanging on to the screen long enough to witness the local BDSM club fanatic pass the hospital revue with his black leather boots in electric shock therapy bondage slippers: all in all, this crazy occurrence should only lead to you turning the switch of your old 50s television set.
