Pelvis
A naive country boy moves to NYC chasing music stardom but gets ruthlessly chewed up, heavily medicated, and spit out by a sleazy corporate machine. To strike it rich, his exploitative handlers rebrand him as a shock-gimmick act named "Pelvis," forcing him to perform highly offensive novelty songs. The pressure drives him into a coked-out, zombie-like haze where he performs on stage covered head-to-toe in silver face paint. Ultimately, it takes his sex-obsessed country girlfriend chasing him to Manhattan to rip up his contracts and rescue him from the industry's clutches
