Ever wondered what a kappa’s cock looks like? Seattle’s favorite drag queen UH OH wants to show you!
Uh Oh joins us on Saturday, July 26 to perform and host a special screening of UNDERWATER LOVE, a pornographic musical romance about the mythical Japanese water-creature from pink film legend Shinji Imaoka, shot by Wong Kar-wai’s cinematographer Christopher Doyle(!) and featuring the infectious pop music of Stereo Total.
In his former life, Aoki was a normal guy. Now, unfortunately, he is a kappa. But he’s still in love with his highschool sweetheart Asuka, who’s become engaged to her factory boss. Setting out both to win Asuka back and to save her from a deadly fate that only he’s aware of, Aoki dons a disguise to take a job at her factory and leads her on an odyssey of death, resurrection, and huge, pus-like “anal pearls.” But first there are musical numbers and sex scenes!
“UNDERWATER LOVE is a celebration both of making the ultimate sacrifice for one’s sexual partner and of a touching youthful naïveté. The romantic side of Imaoka’s film gives definitive shape to all the irrepressible looniness. Along the way there’ll be sumo wrestling, necrophilia, and the stuffing of the anal pearl in…well, you know where.” - Andrew Schenker, Slant
“I love their gay little dances.” - sailorr, Letteboxd
