Synopsis

Jack Johnson's the typical 'loser' marked early on in his childhood by the pangs of the female anatomy. After seeing his step-mother naked at age eleven, and later permanantly scarring his lower lip (on his own braces!) during what would have been his first and only kiss, he haphazardly discovers the joys of cunnilingus as an alternative to kissing lips. Now in his thirties, Jack is working as an inventory clerk at a stock room for the biology department at N.E. Given University where he encounters Dr. Lydia Majora, who uses Jack as a guinea pig to test the Som-Patch, an experimental sleep-inducing drug that puts a person to sleep within ten seconds and keeps them asleep for eight full hours, a sleep from which one cannot awaken until the dose is completely utilized by the body. Thus, Jack's mind conjures up a plan to finally get what he most desires in life, and sees no way of being stopped. With a fresh new outlook on life, Lydia finally notices Jack as more than just a clerk, and discloses to him a little 'fetish' of her own. But when she confesses that she doesn't enjoy cunnilingus, a disheartened Jack vows to have her by using the Som-Patch on the one girl whom he may actually be in love with. But can love save the day, or will Jack's obsession with the Som-Patch push him over the edge of reason and sanity, sacrificing true happiness for momentary pleasure? Find out!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION: WAS "CUNNIGULA" A ROMAN EMPEROR?

Okay, I'm here to set the record straight once and for all. The title of my greatest work is, in fact, a fusion of one beautiful activity and one not-so-beautiful Roman emperor. When you combine "cunnilingus" and "Caligula" you get "CUNNIGULA" the off-beat story about a loser named Jack Johnson (no relation to the "Curious George" guy, mind you) who is addicted to "eating out," so to speak.

And the question may be asked: Can someone actually make a feature-length film about this particular subject AND weave into it psychological, philosophical, and sociological importance relevant to the cosmic conundrum of, "why are we here?"

The answer is YES. Trigonis can. Trigonis did. And Trigonis is in the process of making it even bigger and wetter--er, better-- than before.

In the mean time, you can check out the ORIGINAL TRAILER while awaiting a brand new one, which should be coming around in September. Until then. . . Happy dining!
