Kissing Darkness

I somehow found kissing darkness in a hmv in Manchester uk, As soon as I saw the cover I knew I had to buy it. Basically it's loveable and well made trash. This was clearly made with love and passion, yup the sound is awful, acting awful and plot absolute nonsense but that's why it's so entertaining. It's well edited, at times the Actors pull of long takes which is genuinely impressive! Basically we all had a blast watching it, it's so stupid and daft it will entertain anyone! 7/10

its was a lot more campy then I thought with no schtick.I loved it, one of the better James Townsend movies.I've seen them all. Sean Paul shows great range and a well synergistic cast. It didn't take its self to serious but didn't "Ham" it up for the laughs. I developed a crush on Daniel Berilla even though I hate candy. Who doesn't love a man in a leather harness? I don't know how to write 10 lines of review without spoilers. Without any shade the soundtrack was great and the jump scares I do like the multiple cover art and came for Sean and stayed for the story. Thank you James for not using every gay cliché and gratuitous nudity directors use to pander to their audience.

Bad on way too many levels... the story is barely adequate but the acting, the voice recording, the ambient recording: bad!

Finally ! After making the rounds of the few gay horror movies out there, this is the first one that I could actually watch back to back without fast-forwarding in hopes of actual scares or naughty bits to while away the boredom.

A group of friends (who do sound like a group of friends, unlike most slasher movies) rent a cabin in the woods to escape the hollow festivities of West Hollywood Gay Pride. Once there, boredom fast settles as they're deprived of their usual party tactics, until a Ouija board awakens the spirit of a Gothic murderess.

Most of the cast is instantly likable, though as a gay man, it's usually cringe-y to admit that, yes, you do talk and act like that. Past that vanity trip, you will invariably identify with at least one of the leads, be it the romantic hunk, the party blonde twink, the lonesome dreamer or, why not, the tested straight friend (if I was straight, I would have killed all of these sissies after one hour).

The director makes good use of the limited settings. For a gay horror movie, it didn't look like a camcorder cheapie. It does compete with low-budget straight slasher.

The obligatory titillation mostly comes from the guys parading bare-chested, and they look good, with the occasional sex scene thrown in. The scares, well, it's not really scary, but there's quite a bit of blood, and the undead murderess was venomous enough. There's no dead time, and the comedy helps make it through the body count and the final twist. Really not bad at all.

Where do I start... some hot guys, but horrible acting, dumb story, horrible special effects etc etc. Most student movies with a budget of less than $100 are better filmed and acted. The story is about a bunch of gay friends who all happen to look like adult movie stars, who go camping in haunted woods and there are vampires and lots of tomato ketchup on necks and stomachs, but the bad acting is the only thing that I remember really. The only guy who acted well is the guy who plays a total queen, he is funny and believable. Other than that I can't believe anyone wanted their names in the credits. They should have made it a porn, it is almost that at times anyway.
