How to order
In the 1989 movie Heathers, Winona Ryder is at the mercy of a mean, elitist high school clique dominated by girls named Heather. Then she meets Christian Slater, a charming sociopath
who starts murdering her enemies and then involving her in efforts to make the killings look like suicide. In the 1999 porn video
Peters, Brandon Lee is at the mercy of a mean, elitist gay
clique dominated by men named Peter. Then he meets Gage Michaels, a charming sociopath who does for him what Christian Slater did for Winona Ryder.
Now available on DVD six years after its first
release, this is writer/director Dino Phillips's follow-up to his successful debut feature,
a Weird Science parody called Nude
Science. (For forays into directing, smart '90s porn model Phillips adopted the pseudonym "Dane Preston.")
Peters extracts lines ("Fuck me gently with a chainsaw," etc.) and situations from
Heathers, and gives them a rude, sometimes spot-on gay spin. This is one of the rare porn productions with a body count; characters are poisoned, shot, blown up. But Phillips and his crackerjack
18-man cast have a field day with both black humor and sex, especially during an extended, lust-crazed wallow at an L.A. sex club. The
Heathers in-jokes may now be lost on many viewers
under 30, but Gage Michaels's exit as a suicide bomber resonates more deeply in 2006 than anyone could have foreseen when
Peters was made.
