Do You Wanna Know A Secret?

Cast:  Joseph Lawrence, Chad Allen, Dorie Barton, Jeff Conaway

Director:  Thomas Bradford

2001


As far as horror movies go, this would be the typical, below average slasher flick, but from a horror standpoint, I would put it higher on the list than some of the erotic gay "horror" films i've listed here.  The acting is sometimes bad despite a few name actors, although past the primes of their careers.  Former teen stars, Joey Lawrence and Chad Allen head this film along with former Grease star, Jeff Conaway, as a police detective.



Story:  A group of college kids go away for vacation but the fun ends when they fall prey to a serial killer.  Somehow, the new killings are connected to a murder on their campus a year earlier.

Gay Factor:  There's no gay characters or gay themes but the film's co-star, Chad Allen, is an out and proud gay man in real life.

Extra note:  If you enjoy Chad Allen, check him out in Fright Flick (also listed on this site), a horror film that actually does have gay characters, although the gay Allen plays it straight in the film.  Joey Lawrence can be seen in Urban Legends:  Final Cut, which also has gay characters, and is actually a better film than this one.

Below is the post for the film Model Kill but its co-star, Kaleb Scott, is much better known for his porn filmography, including:  Wild Rangers 2 & Wild Rangers 3, as well as multiple films for Saggerzskaterz and boyspissing, and even more recently his own amateur self-filmed work.  Here's a sample of his work....

This is another super low budget, erotica with a plot, from Dead Guys Cinema, who also made the Dead Guys films.

Psycho (1998 Remake)

Cast:  Vince Vaughn, Anne Heche, Julianne Moore, Viggo Mortensen, William H. Macy, Philip Baker Hall

Director:  Gus Van Sant

1998


A remake of a true American classic, coming at the beginning of the modern trend of remaking every horror classic.  It wasn't considered as successful as its original and was criticized for its lack of originality, but unlike many horror remakes, this one stayed true to the original.  Many scenes were copied shot for shot from the original to have the same look and feel.  Much more of a true remake than the retold reboots like Halloween.



Story:  Marion Crane steals money from her employer, then fleeing, she ends up at the Bates Motel, run by Norman Bates.  Marion is murdered in the shower by Norman's "mother" but Marion's boyfriend and sister get suspicious and hire a private detective to look for her.


Gay Factor:  Most of this film's gay factor comes from behind the scenes.  There are no gay characters in the film, although it once again has Norman Bates crossdressing as his mother, but that isn't classified as gay, just a split personality. 

The film comes from acclaimed gay director, Gus Van Sant, who also brought us the classic Drugstore Cowboy as well as the gay film, My Own Private Idaho, starring Keanu Reeves and River Phoenix.  The film co-stars Anne Heche who became a household name during her marriage to famous lesbian actress/comedianne Ellen Degeneres.  Now, Heche has returned to a heterosexual lifestyle, but her lesbian/bisexual past can't be ignored or denied.

TRAILER

I Know Who Killed Me

Cast:  Lindsay Lohan, Julia Ormond, Neal McDonough, Brian Geraghty

Director:  Chris Sivertson

2007



I haven't seen this one, so not much to say about rating it other than the facts.  At the time it was considered a flop, earning $9 Million at the box office, under its $12 Million budget.  However, the movie came at the peak of the anti-Linsay media explosion which left a dark cloud over the film from its release.




Story:  A serial killer is on the loose in New Salem, torturing and killing young girls.  When pianist & writer, Aubrey Fleming, goes missing its feared that she is the newest victim.  A girl of Aubrey's description is found alive but critically injured.  In the hospital, the girl claims to be Dakota Moss, a stripper who's never heard of Aubrey Fleming.  Doctors believe it is just post traumatic stress but the girl speaks the truth:  she's not Aubrey Fleming.  However, she does hold a key to unravelling the mystery of Aubrey Fleming.

Gay Factor:  No gay content or gay characters.  It simply makes our list for its bisexual actress, Lindsay Lohan, who was involved in a long term love affair with girlfriend, Samantha Ronson.

Dead Guys

Cast:  Brett Silvers, Leo Masters, James Angelo

Director:  Alex Dove

2003




Dead Guys is an extremely low budget, light erotic film with a murderous plot.  From an erotic standpoint, there's plenty of skin and some full frontal nudity, unfortunately the sex is always interupted with murder.  From a horror standpoint, there's a large body count, but not very scary.  It was intentionally filmed in faded color to give it a unique feel, which also adds to its low budget quality. One good point, there's two unsuspected twists at the end!


Story:  A psychopathic killer shares his secret with his lover and soon they become partners in crime.  The two meet a third guy who shares their passion for killing, but the threesome gets sloppy and the police begin to find their trail.
