Movies About Bent People

I just watched Quid Pro Quo last night. The movie explores the world of facticious disability disorder which includes people who are compulsively sexually attracted to disabled people, pretend to be disabled and/or want to be disabled. They are called devotees, pretenders and wannabes. I never knew those types of people existed.
