All Julie (Samantha Keller), a little known actress, wanted to do was
audition for a role in an indie zombie flick, but things get out of hands
almost immediately when the only two persons in the room with, the
director Joe (Jason Impey) and the male lead Maximilian (Wade Radford)
can't decide which scene she ought to perform in the audition, and when
she is asked to suck a banana as if it was zombie cock and gets constantly
insulted by Maximilian while doing so, she just gets up and wants to leave
... which is when Maximilian knocks her out. When Julie comes to, she
finds herself tied to a chair, and to her horror, Joe and Maximilian
discussing making a snuff movie with her as the victim - and they're not
discussing whether or not to do it, but how to do it - and in the course
of this discussion Maximilian humiliates her more and more, even to the
point of literally shitting on her. And while Joe is disgusted by all of
this and seems to be a reasonable man by and large, he still wants to make
a movie, and he does everything to get what he has hoped for ... Sure,
in writing Fluid Boy sounds like a very blunt piece of misogyny,
showing stuff to appeal to the basest instincts of a hardened male horror
audience - and that's not getting the point of the film at all: Sure, the
male characters of the movie have misogynist traits, but they're also
cold-blooded killers and (especially Maximilian) all-out assholes, so
hardly someone to identify with. And what's really interesting about Fluid
Boy is not seeing a girl manhandled and being shat on in the first
place, but the interaction of the characters, their perverted powerplay,
and of course the suspense as to what will happen and when - and in that
respect, the film works very well, in pushing things onwards and giving
the audience scarcely a moment to breath. That said, the movie is
definitely not for everyone, there are self-consciously offensive and mean
bits in there, that might turn off some audience members - but they miss a
pretty cool flick!
