Innocent face, dirty mind — this 'clean-cut kid' didn't stumble, he sauntered.
Resurrection follows an all-American, clean-cut kid (Trent Atkins) as he explores the underground world of a sex club in Los Angeles for the very first time. Seconds after passing through the sex club doors, Atkins is cruised by the hot, horny men lurking in the club's shadows. Deceived by Atkins' youth and innocent appearance, many of the men assume that he must not be aware of what he's stumbled into; but moments into Resurrection it becomes quite evident to them that looks can be deceiving.
