…and so does James Franco. Or so it seems from his choice to make King Cobra, about the rise of porn ingénue Brent Corrigan and the murder that resulted after two wannabe producers tried to get in on the action. The film was bold and graphic, creepy and haunting. Similar to the way Boogie Nights painted a picture of a family cobbled together from different walks of life, King Cobra depicts characters seeking to re-create relationships from their past. In this way it becomes a story of how we are all looking for that perfect relationship, that easy road to stardom, that one true love. It just happens to be set against the backdrop of the titillating world of pornography and topped off with a gruesome murder. Ultimately there are things more important than sex. You just have to cum and get them.
