BOUGHT ON BLU: it happened in 1971
This is an influential but forgotten trio of flicks I bought on Blu-ray that ironically all came from 1971, and one of them has some homoerotic content, landing it on the does the gay guy die? page. FRIGHT (1971) I … Continue reading

It’s slasher and infected chaos with gay and trans characters as I take a look at two indie flicks by queer filmmakers. INHERITANCE (2021) Michael Kenneth Fahr, director/writer/star of the gay film Victimized, is back with a second film, and … Continue reading

Things that spread like a plague
Parasites, spores, mold…it all leads to infected freaks in my latest movie marathon, which includes one flick with a gay main character. DARK PARASITE (2023) There are absolutely no new ideas in this film, and it fluffs its runtime with … Continue reading
