| Bakjwi (Thirst) - R |
An interesting spin on vampire lore.
While it starts out a little on the slow side, the last 45 minutes are quite enjoyable and worth the wait. Almost a sort of (slightly more subtle) vampiric version of a Tarantino film, without having to deal with Tarantino's penchant for excessive dialog and self indulgent cameos. |

| The Broken Hearts Club - R |
A very interesting cast for a mostly average film.
Nothing ground breaking here, but it was an enjoyable little journey. Seemed to enforce stereotypes (there is always at least a little truth in them) while giving a fairly realistic look at some of the (internal) issues that the gay community has to deal with. A bit like a gay version of one of those "Lifetime" movies. |

| Zombieland - R |
Great fun for fans of horror/zombie films.
Though I have to say that while both Harrelson & Eisenberg are great and the film was pretty consistantly ammusing...Bill Murray's 10 minutes of screen time was by far the high point of the film. |

| Psycho Beach Party - Unrated |
An amusing little homage to 50's/60's beach party/surfing & horror b-movies.
Lauren Ambrose is great (as usual) and the rest of the cast seems to be having a lot of fun with all of the silliness and sexual undertones. Nothing ground breaking, but it was enjoyable. |

| Small Town Gay Bar - Unrated |
While very thoughtfully made, this has to be one of the most depressing films that I've seen in a long time.
As if the blatant homophobia and prejudice were not depressing enough...the fact that the "bars" that these folks relish and take refuge in are often little more then rundown houses or shacks with a strobe light, beer cooler and a CD player was just heartbreaking. So desperate for a place to "fit in" and make some sort of honest connection with like minded people, these folks were just happy to be anywhere where they could be themselves. But I was more then a little amazed that in such a repressed part of the country that nearly every gay or lesbian shown in this film was "off the charts" on the gay meter. We are talking Flaming Boys/Men, Raging Drag Queens, and some pretty Butch Lesbians. Not that I'm advocating hiding who you are. I just feel that if I were living in an area where my life could be at stake for "being who I am" I think I would make more of an effort to "blend in" or move to somewhere more civilized. Let the bigots and the Jesus freaks have the backwoods! My main problem with the film is that I didn't feel that the point came across as clearly as it needed to, about how all of the negative aspects of "gay lifestyle" that the bigots and hypocrites always seem to focus on (promiscuity, infidelity, drugs, etc.) are for the most part just a prevalent in "hetero lifetyles" as well. I guess as documentaries go...it does it's job for the most part. It makes you think. |
