October Moon

This is the worst piece of garbage I've ever seen. The acting by the two main guys isn't bad but the guy playing the crazy straight guy who becomes obsessed is over-the-top and cringe-inducing to behold. And as an extra layer of smelly crap within crap, the scene where the gay guys teach the straight guys how to have fun is offensive to gays everywhere. Way to reinforce stereotypes. Was this movie made by the Republican party? If you were a gay filmmaker, why would you put in a scene to show that straights are "squares" and need to be taught how to have a good time? AND that said time would be a (warning! shocking twist ahead!)...a DANCE PAR-TAY!

I did like the scene where the janitor in the background sneaks a swig from his mop bucket, that's the only reason I'm giving this mop-bucket-of-a-film one star instead of none? Haven't seen the sequel, maybe next time I want to botch a date I'll put it on as she goes running for the hills. Or maybe I'll just stick with the original to do the job.

After 40 minutes we called it quits. Poor acting and boring story line. Gay characters were dull and the supposed straight man was a joke. I didn't recognize Elliot's mother but I remembered her name from a horror movie back in the 60's...Night of the Living Dead. Her acting was bad back then and she never improved. Don't waste your time on this TURKEY! And, unbelievably, they made a sequel of this trach 2 years later!

Giving it was a terribly low budget, I like the storyline I didn't mind the actors at least it wasn't one of those soft porn gay movies that all gay movies are usually about yuck, but all in all I enjoyed it good job guys

This movie started out slow and it seemed like it was going to be another stupid low budget movie. But it got better and better until my friend and I were clutching pillows from the suspense.

I liked Sean Michael Lambrecht best as an actor in this movie. He played his character with a surprising amount of depth, and became eminently likable because of it. He's cute to look at, and he endears himself to you.

Yes, there was lots that could have been better. But the characters grow on you, the acting gets better as it goes on, and you end up on the edge of your seat.

The ending stayed with me for days, and I have been analyzing everything the characters did and didn't do. Rare that this happens to me with a movie, so say what you will about the budget, but this was a surprisingly fun movie to watch.

Here's Fatal Attraction for the gay set with a few additional twists. The basic premise holds some definite potential but it's soon stamped out by severe reality-killing amateur acting (Sean Michael Lambrecht and Jeff Dylan Graham being the worst offenders there) and mediocre writing, and ends up basically coming off like a rushed production job. The character of Elliot is potentially interesting but he's not fleshed out to the point where his sexual transition or obsession is at all convincing.

Shot on video with the lowest production values you're likely to stumble across (I stumbled across them on Netflix), best I can say here is that the filmmakers tried but failed to come up with something a little different, though it's nice seeing Judith O'Dea again after such a long absence from films. Other than that, this offers very little of value and is instantly forgettable. I will not discount the director's future endeavors on behalf of this weak effort but will just advise him to sharpen up on his writing and hire better actors next time. It's also fishy that there are currently five glowing reviews for this film on IMDb. Even more fishy is that four of them were submitted in the same day!
