“Sexcastle”

“This is a great sendup up 80’s action flicks and doesn’t feature a strip club or bdsm dungeon or anything like that, which the title seems to suggest. I read Stark’s other book Old Head, which is ALSO not about a sex act. Apparently “old head” is a sports term, so that explains why I don’t know it right there. Sexcastle is the character’s last name because stupid names were a staple of action movies. John Matrix was always my favorite. Does anyone have Matrix as a last name? Okay I just looked it up, and like 1 in 30 million people do, apparently 90% in Africa, and I have to assume it’s pronounced differently or has a different meaning or something. According to one web site (that’s a pretty decent amount of research for this silliness) there isn’t anyone with that last name in The States. It just sounds like a name someone would come up with, thinking like it sounded like a cool American name.

If you love 80’s action nonsense, this’ll work. It makes a little fun of the stupid shit from those movies, but it’s very loving. Just a good time. “
