Go to Hell!
Not to be confused with an all-sexer starring Lynn LeMay & Flame titled "Bubbles" released the same year, this "Bubbles" is the meaningless title for an especially pretentious Anthony Spinelli movie set in Purgatory. Resembling an "Outer Limits" episode (but in color), it stars Buck Adams as a guy who finds himself on an abstract studio set, soon to find he's not in Heaven but not in Hell either -hence Purgatory.
Joey Silvera is already there, looking silly as he "pretends" to be f*cking someone but is alone. He is impossible to talk to, delivering non sequitur lines in goofball fashion most memorably his tag line: "Heaven's in Wyoming".
Random folks appear, have sex, and are taken away, presumably to ascend to Heaven. But Buck is overlooked, and the sorrowful ending has him crying at being left out, and still bewildered by this surreal, seemingly doomed experience.
With Joey clowning around as usual this is not as downbeat or serious a movie as one might expect, and of course the explicit sex take up the lion's share of the running time. Unfortunately, most notable is Buck's exaggerated overacting, just terrible and embarrassing. He seems like a porno performer trapped in imitating and extending Brando's tormented "Hey, Stella!" in "A Streetcar Named Desire".
Spinelli, a legendary pornographer, clearly had much higher aspirations in his career than just grinding out Adult content. For "Bubbles" (that dumb title is truly annoying), he pretends like he's directing a Beckett piece or some Theater of the Absurd. But the movie goes nowhere, an in-joke at best. The cast's beauties, led by K. C. Williams, who the filmmakers have left entirely off the screen credits, and including Nina Hartley looking quite sexy, are all that matters.
