Masturbation: Putting the Fun Into Self-Loving

About This Movie

You know, 'Masturbation: Putting the Fun Into Self-Loving' is one of those oddities that really captures a specific era's take on intimacy and humor. It's got this campy 1950s vibe, and Dr. Sigmund Wiston is just absurdly over-the-top with his methods. The pacing is a bit uneven, bouncing from instructional moments to hilarious, almost surreal comedic bits with Billy that make it feel like a strange blend of educational film and sketch comedy. The performances are delightfully earnest, which adds to the overall charm. Plus, the practical effects used for some of the gags really stand out, giving it a tactile, old-school feel that you don’t see much these days.
