10 Drag Films to Watch for International Drag Day
Posted on 16 July, 2025RuPaul might have brought drag more into mainstream media, but drag has been around since at least the Elizabethan era when women were not allowed on the stage. To get around this, young men dressed in women’s clothing instead. For the longest time, this was relegated to the theater. It wasn’t until the eras of music halls and the vaudeville when performing in drag became an art form in itself, rather than part of a…

The 10 Year Plan
Posted on 8 March, 2020Whenever I want to watch a cute rom-com film, “The 10 Year Plan” is one of my regular choices! Given that this time of year is when everyone from Hallmark to Netflix are pushing out Rom-Com’s due to a specific commercial “holiday” [Valentine’s Day], a review of this film is quite fitting. A true Rom-Com requires three key things: 1 – Person A; 2 – Person B; Shenanigan that’s keeping the two lovers apart. All…

3 NEW Queer Christmas Films for 2022
Posted on 26 November, 2022I’m not a huge fan of analogies, but there’s one that comes to mind while I searched for all of the new queer Christmas films premiering this holiday season. It involves a river, a dam, and climate change. For decades, the unique Christmas film niche greatly lacked any queerness; like a river that was damned, letting a small trickle through with the occasional independent queer Christmas film making its way through. In 2020, the dam…

5 Even MORE Queer Drama Films
Posted on 1 March, 2025When I shared my first selection of 5 Queer Drama Films back in 2022, I noted that it was quite difficult to choose how to pare it down to JUST 5. After all, there are TONS of amazing queer drama films. This task is made trickier because most drama films are not JUST a drama film. Rather, they often go hand-in-hand with other genres. While these combinations don’t have their own fancy nickname like romcoms…

5 MORE Queer Romcoms for Valentine’s Day
Posted on 1 January, 2025Back when I started Queer Film Reviews, my “5 Queer RomComs For Valentine’s Day” was the first non-holiday post on the site. I felt that it was the best post theme, because everyone loves romcoms. And Valentine’s Day simply calls for both romance and a dash of comedy. So as Queer Film Reviews goes into it’s SIXTH year, I felt it fitting to revisit Queer RomComs, especially since they’re PERFECT for Valentine’s Day. Which is…

5 Queer “Adult” Films
Posted on 1 June, 2025A few years ago, I discussed the very subtle difference between Queer Adult Films, and Queer “Adult” Films. Feel free to check it out HERE real quick if you missed that breakdown. Back already? Or perhaps you didn’t check it out because you knew I’d recap it for you anyways. Well, you’re right – I will! But that’s not because I didn’t trust you to check out the other post. You see, the difference is…

9 Dead Gay Guys
Posted on 11 April, 2020Warning: This film is full of British slang, crude jokes, and crass language. If you find that offensive, this might not be a film for you. You WERE warned! “9 Dead Gay Guys” is probably the most offensive and stereotypical queer film I have seen – and it’s also one of the funniest! This black comical farce does not attempt to hide what it is, and even embraces all of its political incorrectness as it…

Agender Films to Watch for Agender Pride Day
Posted on 19 May, 2023May 19 is Agender Pride Day, so you know what that means? Happy Agender Pride Day! For anyone who isn’t familiar with Latin, the prefix “a-” means “without”. Thus, agender means one who is without gender. Folks who identify themselves as agender do not associate with one particular gender. Other terms used include genderblank, genderfree, genderless, gendervoid, non-gendered, ungendered, and null gender. Many use the pronouns “they/them”, however people choose whatever they feel comfortable using….

Another Gay Movie
Posted on 1 April, 2020What does Quiche Lorraine, high school seniors, and a quest to lose their anal virginity have in common – they’re all included in this spoof of comedy classic “American Pie”, albeit with quite a queer twist! But is this just another parody or does “Another Gay Movie” strong enough to stand up on its own? Let’s dig into this hysterical comedic romp! The Quest for Anal … I mean, the Plot! “We dunno shit about…

Dark Queer Christmas Films
Posted on 1 November, 2023For the last four years each holiday season, I’ve shared a Christmas-themed highlighting five queer Christmas films. I’ve done the “kinda” queer Christmas films (see HERE and HERE) as well as the Queer Kinda “Christmas” Films (see HERE and HERE). While it’s been interesting to note films with those subtle differences, this year I’ve decided to steer away from that and head into brand NEW territory! DARK Queer Christmas Films! When most folks think of…

Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds
Posted on 6 May, 2020[“Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds” is part of the “Eating Out” Saga. To read my review for the next film, “Eating Out: All You Can Eat”, click HERE. To recap the entire saga, head over to THIS post!] Normally, sequels don’t fare as great as the first film – especially when you recast one of the leads! However, there’s something about “Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds” that actually makes it a better and more enjoyable…

Friendsgiving
Posted on 24 November, 2020From reading the synopsis, I was not that intrigued by “Friendsgiving”, the latest film to kick off the 2020 holiday season. I felt like I would either love it – or hate it; there simply is no middle ground for ensemble films like these that posit multiple character storylines against each other to unfold comically. It works – or it doesn’t. While there were a couple of heartfelt moments in “Friendsgiving”, I was bored most…

I Hate New Year’s
Posted on 29 December, 2020Well this is awkward… when I created the initial draft for my review of “I Hate New Year’s”, the film had an IMDb rating of 5.1. – it’s now 4.3. Oops! However, the drop is a tad understandable because while there are some good moments of this new queer film – overall, it’s not that great. Sure, we have a lesbian holiday romance to watch this year, and it IS a rather cute story. But…

Posted on 1 August, 2023Last year, I shared my list of five Queer Drama Films. But if you recall, I had a difficult time picking only five dramas to make the cut. To be fair, there are TONS of amazing and worthy queer dramas to choose from. So this month we’re going to revisit the drama genre with five MORE Queer Drama Films that are worth watching! If you missed that post, I highly encourage you to go check…

Queer Comedy Films
Posted on 1 April, 2022Last year I reviewed Queer RomComs. Back in February I split the genre in half and gave you five Queer Romances. Now it’s time for the other half: Queer Comedy Films! However like the trouble I had with isolating romances, I had a tricky time determining solely queer comedy films for this month’s post. After all, comedy and romance often go hand in hand together – and for good reason! But I think these five…
