Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss (1998)
Fantastic
BHSK is about a young man, Billy (Sean Hayes), who is a photographer and all he wants is true love. When he is at a small cafe' with his best friend, he meets a gorgeous worker, Gabe (Brad Row). So, Billy being raken back by Gabriel's beauty - asks him if he could photograph him...professionally. But the thing is...Billy doesn't know if Gabe is a homosexual or not.
Well I won't tell you the rest or give away anything but I will tell you this: This film is so great that you don't even pay attention to the fact that Billy is gay - you just wish he would end up with Gabe. The musical score is amazing and Sean Hayes is TERRIFIC that you don't see any Jack Mcfarland-ness in him.
People complain that there was barely any kissing. Well of course there wasn't! This was supposed to be shot like a semi-classical film back in the...maybe 30's. Back then, there were no raunchy sex scenes. So if you love sweet complex romance, go watch this. If you're wanting grungy guy on guy action, rent an episode of Queer as Folk at the video store.
I give this 5 out of 5
Sparkler (1997)
Fantastic Film
Well first of all I have to say I mainly rented this since I found out that Jamie Kennedy was in it, and I didn't think it'd be that good because well I was only 13-years-old thinking this would be boring. I was wrong though and this turned out to be my favorite independent film by far... It starts off with A 30-something trailer-park lady Melba May (Park Overall)who finds her husband cheating on her with a friend and she soon goes out for the night to "celebrate her freedom". Before she goes to a nearby diner, the calls a psychic who tells her that she will bump into three kings. Well she didn't know that when she went to the diner, that three young guys Trent, Joel, and Brad were her three kings, who were on there way to Las Vegas to win money so they could pay rent. Anyways, many things happen to them all, and some of them have secrets that nobody else ever knew before. This movie shows a variety of people who are diverse and teaches you a few lessons about life. Great cast, great script, every actor gave this movie something that most big blockbuster type films can't.
Stricken (1997)
Oddly amusing
Many may disagree with me here...but I actually enjoyed this movie. It may be very low budgeted...and some of the actors here may have not been the BEST here, and the editing wasn't great, but it amused me. Banyon (played by Jamie Kennedy) was by far the best in the movie. If it wasn't for Jamie kennedy, this movie probably would not be good at all. Yes, Banyon may have been a little psycho and obnoxious, but still you couldn't help but feel sympathetic for his character. I say that if you enjoy dark independent films, you might want to take a look at this.
