Baby Plans Go Awry For Two Criminals In The New Webseries, TAINTED LOVE
It’s probably a good thing that Orlando Jones wasn’t too serious about taking over Tyler Perry’s original character, Madea in any upcoming films, otherwise he and director Avi Youbian wouldn’t have had the time to bring us his latest role in Tainted Love, a bold, new graphic novel, stylized action comedy webseries from Machinima Prime. The new series has already premiered its first season episode on Sunday May 5, with its second, airing on Thursday, May 9, and you can definitely tell that its not for the faint of heart.
TAINTED LOVE is laced with raw, mature humor, brutal action violence and vulgarity–all the juicy things you would see in an R-rated movie (or Adult Swim…or Max After Dark. Whatevs.)
Black Barry (Orlando Jones) is a binary man: one part criminal, one part new father. He is a grossly underpaid bag man for Fred Lucas (Eric Roberts), the baddest gangster in town. The love of his life, Jezebel Jackson (Deanna Russo), is his perfect match: one part thief, one part new mom. Jezebel has a two step plan to establish their new family. Step one: rob Fred Lucas. Step two: marry Barry. Her plan goes horribly wrong and puts Barry at odds with Detective Jamshid (Maz Jobrani) and Lucas’s goons. Barry will stop at nothing to ensure his family’s safety.
