Synopsis

Hornbill Films presents a story which brings to light the darkest aspects of human sexual psychology. Rocco, a retired pornographer, runs a sex club which acts as a second home to married men, closet-cases, male hustlers, and the lonely johns who cruise them. His right hand man, a washed up former porn star named Vincent, manages Rocco’s stable of hustlers and glory hole palaces while straining to put direction into his own broken life.

Meanwhile, two of Rocco’s hustlers become each other's "Tenderloin-Brothers," looking for a way out of this sewer but finding that there aren't any easy ways out as they try to understand their own feelings toward one another.

Take a journey into the forbidden world of the married men, closet cases, teenage cruisers, and all the other people who make life worth leaving. A journey on a train that will take you to the end of the line where no one’s getting off.

Directors Ross and Rubin draw heavily from the imagery of '70s exploitation films, underground '80s porn, and surreal video art to create a haunting milieu depicting the desperate lives of sexual outlaws trying to hold it all together in a hellhole not meant for the timid.

Hornbill Films has releases of “ Live for Sex, Die for Love” with a cast of some of the hottest men to ever appear on a movie screen together. Directed by Toby Ross and Joe Rubin, “Live for Sex, Die for Love” is the story of an evil white slave trader, Rocco and his sidekick, Vincent. They run a sex den where they exploit their clients so that they can have a high standard of living.
In the basement of the building of the sex den is the place where hustlers are kept in cages. These young men are a source of profit and are used for that purpose. In the evenings, they are taken out of their cages to the nearby alley where they are forced to sell their bodies and turn over the profits. The alley is known as “The Walk of Shame” and it is used by the men who, for whatever reason, cannot get in upstairs.
The building is designed to satisfy every sexual need. On the first floor is a “bookstore” where one can chose his pleasure. The second floor is for married and closeted men who want no more than anonymous sexual pleasure. It is a forbidden world and the people who live in it look at it as a home away from home for those who cannot afford to be seen in the company of gay men. In the film, a straight man exposed himself before the group of guys looking for a quickie and the resulting action is not for the weak of heart. The third floor houses men who stay high on drugs.
This is a dark film as it reflects the darker side of life. The only light we see is with the “Tenderloin Brothers”, John and Throne, who try to find their way out of the horrible conditions and as they do, they also find that they have feelings for each other.
