5 MORE Queer Musical Films
Posted on 1 August, 2025I first wrote about queer musical films when I posted my 5 Queer Musical Films posts three years ago. Hard to believe that it’s been that long for one of my favorite genres. Which means that it’s time to revisit the genre again! Despite the fascination that many of us queers have with musicals, not all musicals are actually queer. And even fewer musicals have received film adaptations. Thankfully, there are still plenty of queer…

Are We Lost Forever
Posted on 3 November, 2020“Are We Lost Forever”, the feature debut film by writer/director David Färdmar, is still new on the scene in this very weird year of 2020 – but it’s already gaining attention. Starting off at the end of a relationship, we follow our leads, Adrian & Hampus, as they navigate the messy world of the post-breakup with all of it’s ups, downs, arguments, makeups, et al. (It actually started off as the Queer short film, “No…

Deadly Skies
Posted on 17 November, 2020From reading reviews of “Deadly Skies” online, it’s clear that people watch this film because of A) Antonio Sabato Jr’s sexy butt or B) Rae Dawn Chong – and that’s about all. This Canadian made for TV film is just another B-grade disaster flick where armageddon is coming, the government ignores the scientists who discover the danger, and in the end the scientists save the day. But is it actually a Queer film? Let’s dig…

Go
Posted on 22 December, 2020This Queer film review is part of my “Queer Holiday Film Reviews for 2020” post. “Go” was quite game-changing when it was released in 1999. Yet some mock it as a lesser attempt at the cinematic storytelling style of Pulp fiction, or even just a copycat. But there’s something fresh about how director Doug Liman twists around character cliches, always leaving the viewer surprised. But there’s another key reason “Go” was groundbreaking – it was…

Red Lodge
Posted on 24 December, 2020This Queer film review is part of my “Queer Holiday Film Reviews for 2020” post. A tad short on the feature film length, “Red Lodge” is a welcome entry to the Queer Christmas Film canon. The first film by director Dan Steadman, this film shows us the trouble that ensues when a marriage proposal does not get the expected enthusiastic “Yes”. Told primarily through Jordan’s viewpoint, and interjecting a recap that breaks the fourth wall,…

Score
Posted on 24 February, 2021This week’s queer film review is quite a shocker – it’s one of few films that fall into IMDb’s “Adult” genre. But what is this titillating explosion of swinging and bisexuality? It’s Radley Metzger‘s 1974 film, “Score”. When it was released in theatres, it was both shocking and quite divisive; it’s also one of a very small niche of films from the 1970’s “Golden Age of Porn”. But perhaps more surprising is that it’s actually…

Sexual Tension: Volatile
Posted on 15 January, 2020The Good This is a really good compilation of shorts! With one exception, each one focus on the exoticness of non-sexual situations between guys – or how those rather innocent situations can quickly lead to a sexual, taunting flirtation and tease. A lot of thought went into the script; it is not merely a cheesy porno “story,” but realistic dialogue for each situation. The “Tension” is not just on screen between the actors, but we…

Tonight It’s You
Posted on 31 October, 2020[“Tonight It’s You” is just one of the horror shorts from my “7 Halloween Shorts for 2020” post. To view the other shorts, head over to THIS post!] Wow! You go to watch a horror short film and expect something horrific. But the “twist” in “Tonight It’s You” was NOT at all what I expected – I was pleasantly surprised !(And equally caught off guard – which is even better with horror films!) Let’s dive…

Your Eyes On Me
Posted on 20 October, 2020It can’t be easy to release a film when half the world is in various forms of lockdown, cinemas are closed, film festivals have gone online or postponed, and no one has worked on projects for half the year. It’s even more challenging when you’re an independent film trying to make your debut like Sergei Alexander. However, despite these extra hurdles, I feel like “Your Eyes On Me” will quickly gain traction – because it…
