Michael Lembrecht) is having guy trouble
with his boyfriend Jake (Jeff Dylan
Graham) and has a great job since he is
an employer of his own company.
He speaks to his assistant employer and
friend named Nancy (Brinke Stevens) about
it all and he realises that a good
looking guy named Elliot (Jerod Howard)
is going to work for him as they spend
alot of time together on projects at the
office. Yet Elliot is engaged to a girl
named Marti (Tina Ona Paukstelis) but yet
he is not sure if he wants to get married
as his homophobic mother Mrs. Hamilton
(Judith O'Dea) is pushing him to do so.
Elliot
seems to obsess about Corin as he spends
alot of time with him going to gay events
and parties and spenmding less time with
his finace.
Corin realises that he loves his
boyfriend Jake and wants to stay with him
no matter of a pain he can be.

After
Elliot breaks off his engagement with
Marti and gets kicked out of the house by
his mother the terror really begins as he
goes even more beserk. Then on Halloween
night he is convinced to have Corin all
to himself during an October moon.
Probably the best
independent film in the gay market ever.
It starts off like a Brokeback
Mountain love story type drama
and it does become a psychological horror
a quarter way through keep watching and
you will see.
At first you will think this isn't a
horror film but watch the whole thing as
it changes proving that a drama can be a
horror film too not just films that are
horror comedies that you normally watch
that will scare you and make you laugh
too.
It is intense and disturbing and a
realistic look at an obsessed crazed
person who is madly in love.
Made on a video tpye budget but so what?!
THis is an indie film and they put alot
of work in it regardless.
Did I tell you a sequel is in the works?
The acting is
superb and terrific and realistic with
plenty of talent.
Scream queen Brinke Stevens does
marvellously as a fag hag showing a sense
of humor with her character as well as
sterness when she is forced to let an
employee go making her character
extremely realistic as she shows her true
talents in this film and her best
performance ever.
Scream king Jeff Dylan Graham is
perfect as the assertive boyfriend
showuing great emotions and aggressions
to his character and portrays his part
incredibly well as a young freespirited
person who is protective with his lover.
Lead actor Sean Michael Lambrecht
does nicely as the other half who is nice
and laid back confused about his
relationship. He knew his stuff.
It's nice to see cult icon Judith
O'Dea back in the saddle in a
supporting role as a closed miinded
mother who isn't in touch too well with
the reality of her son. She was quite
intimidating with her part. She proves
she's come along way since her fame in Night
of the Living Dead
The most disturbing performance you will
ever see in an actor is by Jerod
Howard as he trips out terrifically
with his obsessions and crying as it all
seems way to real. It kind of reminded me
of what I was like when I really liked
someone but he got way more extreme (Hey
I have aspergers syndrome. What can I
say?)
There is a butt
shot of Sean Michael Lambrecht after
taking a shower
There is a
stabbing with some blood pouring down but
the gore is a total turkey
Jason Paul
Collum is marvellous with his work
in the film as he convinces that this is
just a drama but proves that he has
another twist to this film.
He does well at coaching Brinke
and Sean with their scene
together as they discuss the new employee
situation in a cafe showing perfect
chemistry with the two of them
Also he shows nice moments of Jerod
Howard's reactions when he visits
the house of his employer and tempted to
seduce him but is still too closeted as
you totally get that feeling with the
direction in that scene.
Also showing Jerod's total
obsessions with Sean's character
stalking him etc. was very cringing too
making you think to yourself with a crush
you had in the past. Was I that nutty?
He also directed Judith O'Dea
well as the bitchy mother pressuring his
character to marry his soon to be
ex-fiance or she'll disown him which was
extremely effective and distrubing too
with the other topics in this film.
Then when he coached Jerod on
going psycho was perfect blending the
drama with horrror in it.
All together the film he worked on he
made it very romantic yet very
suspenseful too.
The gay bar dance scene was also nicely
composed too I forgot to mention making
it look like a real gay bar and the
surroundings of it
There is some nice waltzy
synthesizer music and some deep tones and
thumping to for the moments when it's
necessary composed neatly by Red
Clark II, Sean Michael Lembrecht
and Jamey Sewell
We have some great
songtracks like:
"Catch Me I'm Falling" by Pretty
Poison
"The Prodigal" by Sacha
Sacket
"Changes", "Lucky
Day" and "Drowsy Maggie"
by The Sandcarvers
and the theme song "October
Moon" by DJ Smoove
