LOS ANGELES—Writer, activist and adult performer Siouxsie Q, who took a hiatus from performing to focus on the #NoProp60 campaign in California, makes her return with a scene for Kink.com sub-site HardcoreGangBang.com titled "The Red Bride."
Written by Q and directed by Madeline Marlowe, "The Red Bride" incorporates many aspects of the writer/star's personal life, including even using her own wedding dress in the scene. It is also the first scene shot by Marlowe beyond the walls of the Armory, marking a significant new chapter for both women.
“My team and I are film nerds at heart; anytime I am able to collaborate with performers on a narrative, the films that I make are more fun to create, and we always have lots of laughs and genuine passion on set. It all makes for a better film,” Marlowe said. “In the end, we all feel like we really accomplished an amazing feat. And we did! People say folks fast-forward through the story, yet I get so much fan mail from those who are interested in the narratives I present. To be honest, I wouldn't know how to make a sex film without detail, nuance, narrative and hoopla!”
Offered Q, “This is my first big shoot back after slaying the Prop. 60 dragon. I love making porn, but I chose to focus all my attention towards politics for most of last year to ensure that we all could continue making it in the future without fear of state incentivized harassment.”
Co-starring Will Havoc, Tommy Pistol, Jon Jon, Small Hands and Mark Wood, "The Red Bride" draws on its two creators' shared values of “whore power and femme supremacy.”
Marlowe continued, “I make it a point to reach out to the women who will be enduring this whirlwind of controlled sexual chaos. Many of them have fantasies of takedowns, abductions, rough sex with multiple men, and being destroyed. They come to me because of my approach to this very brutal hardcore sex scene. After all, it is very hard to put together a gangbang in the real world that is safe and with people who know what they are doing; my sets allow this luxury. The women can feel safe to let go and know I am here in the end to catch them and bask in all their post-gangbang glory.”
Given her responsibilities since last May as Director of Policy and Industry Relations for the Free Speech Coaltion, Q said she chose her return to the screen with great care. “Now that I am doing policy and advocacy 40+ hours a week with the Free Speech Coalition, I only have time and bandwidth to make a certain number of movies a year, so choosing projects where I get to have more creative involvement as I did with 'The Red Bride' are very interesting to me,” she explained. “I had a great time working on the script for Grooby’s Real Fucking Girls directed by Mona Wales, and I've already begun work on the sequel.”
Added Marlowe, “Siouxsie came to me with an idea that was not only totally original, intriguing, taboo and sexy, but she also wanted to bring a part of her personal life into the story as a way to heal. I was immediately on board. I don't think the public often sees or hears about the way porn can heal a person. Sometimes it heals the sex workers doing the work and sometimes it heals the observers. We are all human, and sex—yes, sometimes very intense hardcore sex—can heal a broken heart, or serve as a symbol, a piece of art, a spell breaker or a reminder that we are all sexual beings and there is no shame in that.
“In Siouxsie's case, it was her identity as a whore and almost losing that identity," Marlowe concluded, "but together through creating this art piece, we were able to bring her to a space that was not only sexy to watch, and definitely A+ jerk off material, but you watched a woman rise from the ashes more beautiful than ever before, and that last orgasm of her writhing on the floor in her red-dyed wedding dress, disheveled and unabashedly taking what she wanted, well I can't think of anything more beautiful to witness.”
