Wasteland and Urgent Haircut Productions has announced the release of Gone Viral, a full feature season 1 finale’ to their dystopian thriller series, Sex in the Time of Pandemic Isolation.
Once again, Wasteland Director Colin Rowntree has cast Sicillia Ricci (who also wrote and co-produced the film) in the lead to reprise her role as Dr. Sarah Connors, a sex-addicted viral immunologist working on a COVID-19 vaccine at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta. Throughout Wasteland’s Sex in the Time of Pandemic Isolation series, Sarah takes her voracious sex life online to cope with her job-mandated isolation with suprising developments.
Writer, co-director and the film’s star Sicilia Ricci states “As a working viral immunologist and also an adult film performer, I found this film to be an ironic response to the sexual isolation and technological dependence much of society is facing right now. When writing the script, a machinized sex scene was the perfect way to round out this film series and everything the world needs right now to forget about the politicization of this pandemic.”
As the story unfolds, Sarah begins a perverse, long-distance entanglement with Dr. Jack Moriarty, a program coordinator for the Surgeon General in Washington, D.C. (voiced by Colin Rowntree), and finds her trust mysteriously challenged — and perhaps even violated.
Sarah’s erotic submission goes even further though. Gone Viral also sees Sarah interact with a cast of kinky and murky actors, who continually manipulate her remotely via the popular AI-enhanced home device, “Malexa.”
Several notable adult industry heavy-hitters all help to push Sarah over the edge this time, including Lance Hart as “It puts the lotion on its skin” sociopath Jamie Gumb; and Ashley Fires and Vicki Vette who make guest appearances as a CDC scientist and a military general from the Mt. Weather Government Emergency Operations Bunker.
Gone Viral sees Sarah’s descent into paranoia, confusion, and sexual recklessness culminate in a taboo, but humorous domination scenario wherein she becomes the pleasure puppet of a New World Order conspiracy that reaches to the highest echelons of power.
As with all previous installments in this series, Rowntree shot and directed the entire film from his studio in New Hampshire using only Skype and POV cams on location. “Besides being practical, this technique helps to convey the sense of surveillance and control imposed on Sarah,” said Rowntree. ”Porn in the time of Corona definitely demands innovation, but utilizing remote technologies to actually film, as well as to have Sicilia’s character engage in BDSM play, truly makes this series a mind-control fantasy unlike any other.”
