Synopsis
Artist Carter (David Phillip Carollo) wants desperately to lose his virginity, but only to the right person. He thinks that he's found the right person in Riley (Melissa O'Brien), a call girl with a strange birthmark on her rear end. Carter's dreams of romance are soon ruined, as several Cthulhu-worshiping cultists see this birthmark as a sign that Riley is destined to become the bride of Cthulhu and bear his child. It's up to Carter, aided by Edna Curwen (Helenmary Ball) and Squid (Sabrina Taylor-Smith), to find a way to stop the cult from fulfilling their plans.
