Through these films Marko finds an outlet for the anger he feels towards society, as well as a new group of friends in the porn industry. Marko eventually has a falling out with Cane and starts his own porn cabaret club. An initially positive beginning turns sour when Cane's brother interrupts a film premiere, resulting in the press destroying Marko and his club. Marko debates leaving the city, but is approached by a German journalist who suggests that Marko begin making snuff films.

Reception
Critical reception for The Life and Death of a Porno Gang was mixed to positive. DVD Talk recommended the movie overall, but warned that viewers that some of the imagery was "repulsive and horrifying" while also stating that it "never threatens to overwhelm the intelligence, artistry, or humanity at the film's core." Film School Rejects panned The Life and Death of a Porno Gang, commenting that the director "made a scatter-brained film that fails to string together any coherent narrative outside of getting the audience from one distressing image to the next. For a movie so high on its own substance, it is shockingly lacking in any substance whatsoever."
