Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild is a
fun, satirical, witty and raunchy sex comedy. It ridicules every possible teen
comedy from American Pie to Girls Gone Wild. At the same time it packs a punch,
at times it is outrageously crude with shit, vomit and golden showers, other
times perhaps insightful as it makes a call for diversity beyond the “muscle
bound” clones of the Gay party crowd. However, don’t expect too much depth;
this is primarily a fast moving politically incorrect gay comedy.
In Another Gay Movie, four openly gay
school friends spent their summer together discovering themselves and each one
trying to be the first “bottom”. In the follow up they are on spring break in
Fort Lauderdale at an outrageous gay resort. The resort’s coordinator, RuPaul,
and compere, Lady Bunny, arrange the entertainment which ranges from orgies to
wet Speedos competitions. The biggest comp of the weekend is “Gays Gone Wild”,
to see who can clock up the most sex.
The four friends soon hit bad luck as they
have to battle against The Jaspers, who won the competition last year and are
not above dirty tricks to win again. These range from evil tikis to giving the
boys crabs and replacing their lube with glue.
While this is certainly a raunchy and
explicit sex comedy with enough off-colour content to scare away any but the
most daring, it also includes some interesting explorations of relationships,
commitment and diversity. Boyfriends Griff and Jarod work to define the
boundaries of their open relationship. Andy, who is normally happy with wild
promiscuity falls in love and Nico, comes to understand the nature of being an
outsider and falls in love with a merman (gay mermaid). In the final climatic
scene, Nico comes to understand the “true” nature of being an “individual” and
while the “smooth bodies” of the in-crowd bonk away, Nico and the geeks,
outsiders, trannys and bears celebrate with their own orgy and Nico wins the
competition.
The humour is certainly on the wild side
with fun sub plots including Perez Hilton finding (and losing God) and send ups
of movies ranging from The Wizard of Oz to Night of the Living Dead.
Along the way we meet a range of well
known gay personalities including Amanda Lepore, RuPaul, Lady Bunny, Lypsinka,
Perez Hilton and a plethora of cameo’s including many gay porn stars such as
Michael Lucas and Brent Corrigan.
