A pair of queer Connecticut community college slackers fueled by fantasies of serial killers & horror films go on a rape and revenge rampage at a near-by Ivy League campus...This gay-themed independent feature updates the Leopold & Loeb mystique and, despite it's gruesome subject matter, is also a light-hearted, low-budget look at macabre hero worship that mixes Gregg Araki with John Waters. The tastefully done sex and sadism pays tribute to Wes Craven and includes male rape with various objects, sodomy, forced fellatio, a LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT-inspired castration, decapitation, and even a SERPENT AND THE RAINBOW zombification. Michael Burke, as the dominant Nathan, is a loony obsessive with the sycophantic Justin hanging on his every word and their THELMA & LOUISE-like tale ends on a happy note when it's off to Harvard with their sex-slave somnambulist in tow. Unlike the nerdy killers, the obnoxious Yalie jocks (all members of the secret society "Skull & Bones") who humiliate the deadly duo at a bar one afternoon elicit no sympathy whatsoever when they're kidnapped and killed one by one. Most of the murders come with political in-jokes: using Presidential masks, the Bill Clinton/Monca Lewinsky cigar scene is re-enacted during one murder and in another, Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden really put it to George W. Bush. Philosophically, the Marquis De Sade would have loved this world where the pair figure the worst that could happen to them would be prison and, since life would be a 24/7 porno flick for them there, they embrace self-gratification with a vengeance. This class-conscious comedic ROPE-meets-DEATH WISH-via-Herschell Gordon Lewis would have been repulsive if told straight and takes ultra-low budget queer cinema in a new, inoffensive direction. Not reely recommended, of course, but anyone, gay or straight, who's even half as partial to true crime, sex, horror, and revenge fantasies as our anti-heroes should find it cheap fun.

If HGL were starting his indie movie making venture now instead of the 60's, he might well have made this! The film is outrageous, on the cutting edge of any semblance of good taste, certain to offend just about everyone, and, like a horrible accident, impossible to avoid watching.Its very low budget. It boasts a small cast of unknowns, so-so effects and clunky props. In one scene, a cardboard coffin is nailed shut. Torture implement are obviously bogus and blood and...um...other fluids are a bit unconvincing.Acting style and direction will remind some viewers of "BloodFeast", marked by shameless overacting and mugging to the camera. But this rough and primitive little venture into sadistic serial killers lives and the blackest of black humor might well be in the vanguard of the next wave of shock videos. For this little film is really like nothing else you have seen. More disgusting than "Mordum", more unsettling than "Midnight Meat Train" or "reanimator", it pushes the envelope further than Larry Clark ever dared.The story: Two gay losers, sort of a modern day Leopold and Loeb combo, decide to embark on a career of serial rape/murder/torture/kidnapping. To soften the hideous escapades, the story is laced with black humor which should make you laugh and vomit alternately. Its not a film for everyone. In fact it is a film for a very few: fans of gore, shock and those on a quest for a film that won't bore or remind them of some other film. Personally, I think HGL would have been proud.Now just try to find a copy.
