Another Gay Movie (2006)



















Four gay teenagers have recently graduated from high school. Curious and geeky Andy Wilson (Michael Carbonaro) is sex-crazed; flamboyant Nico (Johan Blechman) is effeminate; jock Jarod (Jonathan Chase) is handsome and insecure; and geeky Griff (Mitch Morris) is bookish and conservative. They want to have sex but can't find partners. On graduation day their lesbian friend Muffler (Ashlie Atkinson) has a graduation party. The boys make a pact to have sex before the end of the summer. Each one looks for sex in a different way, with tragic and comedic results. Nico tries to get an online internet date with Ryder (Matthew Rush) and says "Unfortunately, our lives aren't coming of age films where we all magically get laid by the climax. This isn't American Pie!" Andy pursues his long-time crush with his math teacher Mr. Puckov (Graham Norton). Jarod seeks out jocks and falls for rival baseball team's pitcher Beau (James Getzlaff). Griff tries to earn the affection of male stripper Angel (Darryl Stephens) and is confused about his crushes on Jarod and his gym teacher. Much of the humor comes from the awkwardness of all the boys, and how naïve they are about sex. Each scheme backfires, until they finally change their attitudes about sex.

"Another Gay Movie" is like a gay "American Pie", and pays homage to a number of movies, with particular emphasis on the entire genre of gay coming out movies. It parodies "Adam & Steve", "American Pie", "Beautiful Thing", "Broken Hearts Club", "Carrie", "Edge of Seventeen", "Queer as Folk", "Trick", and others. Original music was composed by Marty Beller. Todd Stephens wrote the screenplay adapted from a story by Stephens and Tim Kaltenecker. Todd Stephens also directed.
