Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild, which came hot off the presses in time to debut at the San Francisco Frameline32 Film Festival this past Saturday, is a movie religious conservative groups can use as proof to show the sexual moral depravity of the gay community. In many ways these groups would have a point, as practically every possible sexual taboo and fetish is joyfully glorified and playfully exploited on the screen, all in the name of crass comedy. To this I say, based on the sheer trashy awesomeness I witnessed; “Hur-f**king-ray!” 

This raunchy, filthy, dirty, carnal, and, yes, hysterical spoof is just what we gays needs to embrace and laugh at all of our insipid stereotypes; like our tendency towards super flamboyantness, our roving “drive” to sex it up with anyone and anything, and our enjoyment and celebration of sex acts outside the “norm.” Another Gay Sequel is like a huge middle finger cheerily waving to all those who claim the gays are the cause of all the natural calamities in the United States (look it up, there are many groups who claim this). If we homosexuals are indeed the down fall of Western Civilization due to our sexual wiles and loose morals - which are all unflinchingly showcased in Another Gay Sequel - then I happily side with the queers sinking the ship.    

By embracing even the most random of homosexual stereotypes (some of which are true - but like most things in life - are not totally and accurately reflective of everyone in the gay community) and dragging them into the light for comedic effect, in such an obviously over-the-top way no less, Another Gay Sequel works as a tool to demystify the “horrors” of gay sex. I can’t tell you how many of my straight friends asked me how gay sex “works.” I say it works the same at hetero sex “only hotter.”  Another Gay Sequel is zany fun and pee-your-pants hilariousness at it’s finest.    

The great thing about the outrageously wacky Another Gay Sequel (which is the cheekily titled sequel to Another Gay Movie) is that like its hetero-predecessors, American Pie and Porky’s, there is no agenda to the movie other than to be funny. Horny teens trying, and failing, to explore and enjoy their naughty, pent-up sexual urges is now a movie genre all its own, and it’s about time the gays get in on that action. After all, why should the straights have all the fun? It’s about time the hornyness is shared amongst those opting out of having a close personal relationship with a vagina.  

Another Gay Sequel is just as it plays itself to be; a film bursting with high flaunting belly laughs, lots and lots and lots of gross-out humor, and tons of nudity just for the sake having male on male nudity. In fact, Another Gay Sequel revels in its crudeness, much like MTV’s ridiculous Jackass or Comedy Centrals South Park. It’s rare to find a movie, much less an indie one, that is so recklessly crass and so wonderfully successful that it warrants a sequel.

And like all movie sequels this second installment rises the bar on what’s gone before, with more splats, slurps and flying bodily fluid. From a bloody, monster movie dream sequences, to a couple “happy-time” milky-ish emissions, to a Family Guy inspired vomit-athon, to a hilarious dance and song number praising the joys of water sports this film has it all and then some! It turns the dial all the way up to 11 in its effort to offend everyone and anyone, while joyfully testing the stomach of even the most open-minded, liberal person; heck, even I had to look away from the screen once or twice.  

With terrific appearances by three - count them three - gay porn stars, the world famous RuPaul, indie movie gay-con (and former American Idol contestant) Jim Verraros, and gossip blogger extraordinaire Perez Hilton – who seems to have so refreshingly tossed himself into his goofy role as an ex-gay who turns all preachy after getting bonked in the head while joining the mile high club that his energy and excitement is contagious - Another Gay Sequel is a gut-busting good time. No mere chuckles or polite giggles will do while watching this flick, oh no, this movie demands pure burst-out-loud, uproarious laughs.  

All this debauchery is thanks to the movie’s talented writer director Todd Stephens, who happily incorporates more than a few winks at some camp classic films – like Whatever Happened to Baby Jane and 80’s teen classic Heathers (this time featuring three incredibly gorgeous, beyond hot, insanely shorty-short wearing men called the “Jaspers”). Credit must also be given to scene-stealing powerhouse Jonah Blechman, who plays the insanely hysterical Nico. Reprising his role for the sequel Blechman is as terrific and hilarious a comedic actor as any Jim Carey or Mike Myers!  

I can happily state a better time cannot be had with your clothes than by watching Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I loved feeling queasy, elated, and energized all at once! Bring on the eventual Another Gay follow-up flick; a movie this hysterical, and naughty, deserves a three-way!
