A swarthy entity with ram's horns sprouting from his head goes mincing through Brazil inciting fits of homosex among the male population. He's first seen messing around at a campsite, wearing only a gold-lamé G-string and a demented leer. Is he the Great God Pan, or an escapee from one of Rio's tackier booby hatches? He makes a decidedly ungodlike impression in the first sex scene by bottoming sans erection for one of the campers. Later, after he sneaks into a villa and meets a young man snoozing in his underpants, the creature fares somewhat better-- though his best work is buried in a DVD bonus loop where he isn't cursed with those stupid horns. None of the seven men embedded in these five dicey episodes is ever connected to a name. Old Sheeptop is probably portrayed by Marcelo Lagoas, who's billed first. Director Léo Botelho seems to be consciously aiming for something spoofy, but the lack of subtitles insures that only viewers who speak Portuguese will make sense of this subequatorial beastliness.
