"FAME WHORE cuts between three interwoven stories examining our culture's lust for that elusive state when everybody knows your name. The triptych includes an all-american tennis star hounded by rumors that he’s gay, a trust fund brat on a demonic quest for celebrity and an idealized innocent so isolated he’s created a six-foot Saint Bernard as an imaginary friend.” – FILMMAKER

“WITH ALL ITS RAW ENERGY AND SAVAGERY – as much the result of Moritsugu’s direction as the brilliantly outrageous performances of Friedrich and Davis – Fame Whore targets not famous people but, more sharply, fame itself.” – LA WEEKLY

“FAME WHORE IS CRUDE, EDGY AND ENERGETIC, and its stars throw themselves into their roles with welcome gusto.” – LOS ANGELES TIMES

“Filmmaker Jon Moritsugu is known best for his teen-angsty punk’n’roll pics MOD F*** EXPLOSION and TERMINAL USA. With his latest Fame Whore, (he) graduates from adolescent hell… THIS FILM IS EVEN FUNNIER AND JUST AS CRAZY AS HIS PREVIOUS ONES.
