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…

Eating Out
Posted on 6 May 2020[“Eating Out” is the first entry of the “Eating Out” Saga. To read my review for the next film, “Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds”, click HERE. To recap the entire saga, head over to THIS post!] This first entry in the “Eating Out” saga is shocking, comical, and enjoyable – but it’s also my least favourite film of the series. The concept for the script is great and rather new at the time – the…

Eating Out: The Open Weekend
Posted on 6 May 2020[“Eating Out: The Open Weekend” is part of the “Eating Out” Saga. To recap the entire saga, head over to THIS post!] “Eating Out: The Open Weekend” is perhaps the most heartfelt of the entries. If it weren’t for quick cameos of two hysterical characters from the earlier entries, this film acts more like the capstone of the trilogy with this cast. But it also works as a good ending for the entire series. And…

Fire Island
Posted on 10 November 2020If you belong to or can blend in with this special gaggle of gays, then you’ll love “Fire Island” – if you don’t, you’ll view the show as trashy and demeaning to the LGBTQ community. For some, the show might take you back to your younger, club scene and partying days. To me, reality-tv shows like this are simply trash and a waste of my time. So why did I watch it? Well, there was…

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…

Queer Horror Films
Posted on 1 October 2021Murders, and Demons, and Clowns – Oh MY! It’s time to get spooky! Just in time for October and Halloween, these five Queer Horror Films are sure to get your heart-racing! Well – that’s what a GOOD queer horror film should do. While all five of the films this month definitely fall within the horror genre, they aren’t all good – Sorry! The trouble is that true queer representation within horror is still a rather…

Queer Kinda Christmas Films
Posted on 1 December 2021AKA: Queer films set at Christmas, but aren’t actually Christmas films. Confused? That’s OK! So was I while watching a few of these films. When searching for queer Christmas films to review this year, these five films showed up within the results. But most of their posters don’t scream out “Christmas” so I was left rather puzzled. It was only upon further examination within their synopsis that you learn that all of these films are…

Shared Rooms
Posted on 24 December 2019Note: This movie review is one of the films in my Top 5 Queer Holiday Film 2019 “Shared Rooms” is another queer holiday film from director/writer Rob Williams, the first being #2 on my list, “Make the Yuletide Gay”. While it might seem odd that I would place this film at my #1 spot, despite having a lower ranking and a few more flaws, the reality is that they both are at the top of my queer…

Tomorrow
Posted on 27 December 2020Ah – that high school crush on your best friend, questioning whether you are just close buddies – or perhaps something more. Add in the uncertainty of the future when you’re both seniors about to head off to college and a New Year’s Eve party to welcome in the new millennium, you’ve got the gist of “Tomorrow”! This coming of age queer short film is rather stunning to watch, a simple story that’s actually full…
