5 Foreign Queer Christmas Films
Posted on 1 November, 2024In 2020, Korean director Bong Joon Ho said something important during his speech after winning the Golden Glober award for the best foreign-language film: “Once you overcome the one-inch tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films.” I FULLY agree! There are so many amazing foreign queer films out there that often don’t see much attention from US and even Western audiences. Although it is worth noting that many of…

5 MORE Queer Action Films
Posted on 1 April, 2024Three years ago, I first tackled the Action film genre and compiled the best 5 Queer Action Films.

If you recall those first five queer action films (or if you’ve just come back after taking a peak at them!), they may not have…

5 MORE Trans Films
Posted on 1 April, 2025It’s been nearly four years since I shared 5 Trans Films for Transgender Awareness Week. So I felt it’s high time that I revist this specific part of the LGBTQ spectrum. Especially because current events and politics have brought the topic into everyday conversation – although not always in the most positive light. So let’s try to change that! As I noted before, I do not consider myself an expert on transgender films. BUT I…

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…

Queer Action Films
Posted on 1 July, 2021When you think of what defines an Action film, certain images or scenes come to mind. Car chases, gun fights, battle scenes, and more. In fact, in order to claim the “Action” genre tag from IMDb, a film must contain “numerous scenes where action is spectacular and usually destructive. Often includes non-stop motion, high energy physical stunts, chases, battles, and destructive crises (floods, explosions, natural disasters, fires, etc.)” Oh, and there has to be more…

Queer Crime Films
Posted on 1 October, 2022Crime films are usually not the kind of films you watch to feel good. Queer crime films are no different, although when adding a queer element, the crime film generally takes an even darker turn as elements of homophobia/transphobia, cliche prison stereotypes, and included. They unfortunately are also often based on true stories; actual crimes that have been committed and are being brought to life on screen to either better explain or to perhaps clear…

Rain Beau’s End
Posted on 21 February, 2023Back in 2021 when “Rain Beau’s End” had its premiere on Lesflicks, they asked me to write a review. Even though I watched and made my notes, life intervened. As a result, this review has been on the back burner since. However, I must confess that part of the reason for the delay is that I dislike writing a review for films I didn’t actually enjoy. Writer/Producer Jennifer Cooney tackled a very specific and unique…
