Eric (Anthony Meindl) and Phil (Cameron Watson) are a gay couple looking to adopt a baby. Then a social worker cons them into taking two troublesome boys for just one (more) day. Then the boy’s drunken mother shows up on the doorstep. Soft touch Phil (a family therapist by trade) tries to form one big happy family only to drive a wedge between himself and Eric.
Were the World Mine
Timothy (Tanner Cohen) is a student in a private school who’s cast as Puck in A Midsummer Night’s Dream by his eccentric drama teacher. Studying his lines, he discovers a recipe for a secret love potion hidden in the book. Soon, in Were the World Mine, Timothy creates a magical pansy for spritzing his potion and first accidentally makes his best friend (Ricky Goldman) fall in love with him. He then proceeds to bespell the rugby player he’s got a crush on (Nathaniel David Becker), then goes on to make the entire rugby team gay. Then as the chaos mounts, he spritzes most of his small town.
Hate Crime
This movie ended up being a pleasant surprise. Hate Crime was in the bargain bin and it had a first time director, so I wasn’t expecting much, but it turned out to be very well done with an interesting story.
Robbie (Seth Peterson) and Trey (Brian J. Smith) have a good life planning a commitment ceremony and thinking about adopting. That’s until the son (Chad Donella) of a fundementalist preacher (Bruce Davison) moves in next door. Trey is found beaten and dying after walking their dog in the park and Robbie soon finds the legal system isn’t on his side. He teams up with Trey’s grieving mother to find out who done it and get justice on his own.
Playroom
Playroom (aka Consequences) – a group of mostly jock buddies (Chris Cannon, Nicholas Kattar, Paul Marron, Adam Ratcliffe & Michael Tranzilli) from high school reunite for their annual “football weekend” away from thier wives and families. This time, two of them are out looking to get laid and find themselves seduced by a couple of hookers and then chained up in the “playroom” of a mad porno producer out to use them in his films. Their buddies try to rescue them while keeping things a secret from the wives back home. As an attempt at a horror movie, it had it’s moments, but was basically just an excuse to get hot guys stripped and tied up. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. . . .
Gay Bed and Breakfast of Terror
Gay Bed and Breakfast of Terror takes us to a run down, way out of the way, gay bed and breakfast run by a demented woman and her daughter. This is where you end up on the big party weekend if your other half forgets to make the reservations far enough in advance. There’s gore (and laughs) galore as the guests learn just what goes on at The Sahara Salvation Inn. “Watch out for the straights.”
And a few more caps after the jump: warning for possible spoilers and possible NSFW!
Mulligans
In Mulligans, Tyler (Derek Baynham) brings his best friend Chase (Charlie David) home from college for the summer. When Chase gets tired of Tyler trying to fix him up with the local bimbos, he finally lets his buddy know that he’s gay. But Chase isn’t the only one as we learn that Nathan (Dan Payne), Tyler’s dad, also has feelings he’s kept hidden during his marriage to Stacy (Thea Gill). The two aren’t as discreet as they should be and the family has to come to grips with the fallout.
Prom Queen
Aaron Ashmore (Sean’s twin) is Marc Hall in Prom Queen. Based on a true story of a Canadian high school student who wants to take his boyfriend Jason, (Mac Fyfe) to the prom at his Catholic school. His quest escalates once a gay rights lawyer (played by Scott Thompson) gets involved, much to the dismay of his boyfriend.
Ben and Arthur
Ben and Arthur are planning to get married in Hawaii, only to learn at the last minute, that Hawaii won’t allow it. So off they go to Vermont. Then Arthur’s (Sam Mraovich) psycho killer religious freak brother Victor (Michael Haboush) gets involved and goes on a psycho killer rampage to try to put an end to gay marriage. And maybe Arthur has some of the family psycho genes too. I hate to say it, but this was a pretty bad movie. It actually sounded like it might be a good story in there somewhere, but it just couldn’t quite claw it’s way out. Ben (Jamie Brett Gabel) was really cute though.
