Fiction keywords and phrases: gay hustler, runaway, abuse, slumming regional dialogue written by an outsider, Dennis Cooper, drug abuse, horrible childhood, .

Cable Report:
Showdown on a Max. Billy Blanks’ high school bully adventure made in 1993, unwillingly set in the mid-80′s. Students in their mid-30′s. Blanks as the hermit janitor savior. Stars an unsuccessful Christine Taylor. Unfortunately entertaining.
