The Passing is a little-seen film shot in Baltimore, where Wiley slouched from, and features credits thanking the UMBC Police Department (for which Wiley "worked") and thanking "Officer Frank Wiley." That's kind of amazing, and were he not a man who facilitates rape, gang rape, retaliation for reporting sexual assault, etc. might be a mark vaguely in his favor (the film isn't pro-rape or pro-lynching), at least for those who might favor some kind of underground/forgotten low-low budget film cred.
One of the funny(?) things about J. "Frank" Wiley's horror/sci-fi/head film-movie background is that, according to John Monfasani, UAlbany's crack team tried to make something out of my horror and/or Hitchcock film scholarship. Here Wiley is with a credit in a film in which a man is strung up to die by a rope with his penis in full view, an object rape involving one man shoving a wrench up another man's rectum, and the soundtrack features an early jazz standard with the derogatory name for African-American neighborhoods in the title and which had decidedly racist sheet music artwork. Mind kinda blown!
Lynching...
A wrench...
A wrench about to be used for an object rape as a man's junk dangles, you know, like in most movies that have credits for university police?!
From the tripping balls scene, something else common in movies made with the help of university police?
