'Death in Xanadu' is a savage indictment against the movie
industry, and in this world of celluloid fantasy, the ultimate
power belongs to the studio mogul Carlton Hislop, who can either
destroy careers or create them - on the condition that they submit
themselves to him. Author Aaron J Clarke turns a jaundiced eye on
Xanadu, and the result is a depiction of a chain-smoking, heavy
drinking, coke snorting, megalomaniac - not to mention perverse -
movie mogul, who will stop at nothing to get what he wants and
likewise, prevent his abhorrent desires from being publicized.
Drawn into this scandal are the producers Tiffany, Lisa and Tony,
in addition to the casting director, Kathy, who nominates child
actors Frank and Freddie for roles in an upcoming film. Carlton
becomes fixated on the young actors the moment he sees their
audition. And so the malevolent man descends down a path of
depravity, which ultimately leads to his humiliating escape from
America and subsequent punishment in tropical Brazil.
