Porn Meets Video Game

It’s time to get your joysticks out! Man’s Ruin is an adult DVD that plays like a video game with multi-players and multi-levels. Starring alt porn star Melodie Gore who plays a superhero on a mission filled with sexual obstacles of fetishism, bondage, medical play, all-girl threesomes, submission and domination.

The DVD is packaged impressively, to say the least, containing a temporary tattoo of the DVD’s logo and two DVDs, one of the film and another of extras. What I found ironic is that an extra on the second disc is of an anti-porn propaganda documentary from the 60’s that paints pornography to be dangerous and vile. Winkytiki, alt pin-up photographer and Man’s Ruin’s creator, is surely a man on a mission to destroy the social stigma that is still preserved in the United States by many people who still believe that pornography is obscene.

Although Man’s Ruin may put a few people off by its description, this film is done artistically and embraces kink on all of its levels. While I can appreciate the way, as well as the reason why this film was made, I found myself utterly confused while watching it. The whole video game meets porn concept is interesting and made me very eager to see the film, the main character plays several personas, some even introduced for no reason such as a cartoon-like squid. There are various different scenes in this film, also some bordering on being introduced for no reason just like it’s personas, such as Japanese Manga and a scene involving an insane Nazi scientist.

While Man’s Ruin is interesting in theory and by the description, greatly interested me in seeing the film, it was too confusing for me to follow. I would love to see a film like Man’s Ruin that was executed correctly, but Man’s Ruin should have went through a few more drafts before releasing it.
