Having helmed over 200 films, Steel’s latest offering is a sex fantasy with sparse dialogue.
“But don’t mistake it for a home movie gonzo flick,” a Hustler publicist said. “Steel has made a sensually evocative film that is his most innovative work to date.”
Set in a steam bath, a pool hall and in club settings, “Hard Up” depicts different aspects of gay life.
Steel chose a surreal, futuristic club setting for the opening scene, in which Crew and Mark Hansford wear high-tech goggles while pursuing each other.
“Hard Up” also features Jean Val John, Josh Carter, John Marcus and Justin Wells. It is the second original release by the HIS brand, following “Devil Inside.”
The film is available in stores now.
