Zerophilia

I was a little skeptical to watch this movie when I first heard about it. I couldn't tell if it was a comedy or a drama. Yet, within the first five minutes of the film, I was really too impressed with Taylor Handley natural acting skills and lovable portrayal of "Luke," to really care.

"Zerophilia" ended up being funny and dramatic at the same time. The whole idea of switching genders through a genetic condition somehow worked in the story's overall message of acceptance-no matter who you are.

I think I'll watch it again, if not just to see the reaction of everyone in the theater in the shocking scene with Luke (wow).

I loved this movie. You should definitely see this whether you're a male or female. It conquers both gender barriers.

The beginning as well as the end is intelligent. The storyline is precise with the meaning of the word that we all wonder about. However, the word isn't correctly used. Rather, there should be a noun defining the exact meaning should be, instead of an adjective. All in all, I believe this movie had great acting. And when I mean great acting, I think of the A & B list of actors (which has a lot to say!) I read a previous comment summarizing "I wish this film can circulate through the public, it deserves the best!" I completely agree with this idea. This film should have been in the mainstream. Why wasn't it?

Great concept, good performances Very original. I saw the film at the Deep Ellum Film Festival in Dallas 21- Nov 2005. Great movie, Funny and a little deep. The film underlies a message of finding your true self. If you have a chance, see it. This film is funny, entertaining and bizarre. Enjoy a look inside a young man finding himself in a way you will not believe. Martin Curland has a feature he should be very proud to show. I hope it is picked up for distribution. Try to find Kelly LeBrock in the opening sequence. Don't hate her because she's beautiful. In this rare coming-of-age comedy that combines elements of magical realism with edgy humor

This one's an odd one that's actually oddly enjoyable.

"Zerophilia" imagines a world in which a communicable disease exists that causes sexual partners to suddenly change gender.

The change is triggered in macho Heath Ledger lookalike Luke, who promptly transforms into sexy babe "Luca" after a backseat tryst with a gal played by "Weird Science" hottie Kelly LeBrock, whose star has clearly fallen so, so far.

What's charming about this movie is the way the characters so awkwardly navigate their male and female selves. Some humor is tossed in as their friends struggle to deal with these abrupt changes.

The "odd" comes in at, of course, the premise, as well as how expertly the casting director matched the male and female representations of each character. Their physical similarities made the film's low-budget transformation SFX seem like straight-up magic.

It's not as laugh-out-loud funny as you might expect, but is a lot more enjoyable than you might expect, too, thanks to some endearing performances and a sensitive script.

I was walking down the street when I... anyways I met the director and got tickets to see the world premiere of it at Rebel Fest in Toronto. It should have been in the TIFF, but it didn't meet the deadline.

The movie is "so creative" as my friend put it and I haven't seen anything like that for a long time. Both of us are taking film courses in college.

The premise is the main character has a disease that changes his gender in minutes when he gets turned on. My only complaint is that it's hd quality and not widescreen.

I think most people would enjoy this film's quirky subject, and comedic dialogues. Unlike most films, Zerophila isn't predictable and not conservative. Also there's also some sort of frog motif going on in there.
