Bite Marks

By: Raymond Murray
In-House Review - Dec 16 2011

In recent years, there have been a bevy of gay (and gayish) horror films - but you will probably not find one as funny, spoofy, sexy and "rotting-flesh zombiefied" as Bite Marks.

Hunky truck driver Brewster (Benjamin Lutz) takes over his missing brother's delivery of coffins. On the way to his funeral home destination, he picks up some hitchhikers: the cute and wise-cracking Cary (Windham Beacham - familiar to gay audiences in films like Long-Term Relationship and Back Soon) and his smitten but tense boyfriend Vogel (David Alanson). The couple's relationship is on the rocks (though that doesn't stop them from some hot-and-noisy gas station toilet fucking, which ignites the repressed homo in the voyeuristic Brewster).

With dicks back in pants, trouble descends on the threesome when a faulty GPS leads them into a deserted junkyard - where the truck promptly breaks down. Normally, this would not be a terrible situation. But this night is far from normal - as an assortment of -thirty zombies begin to attack! Now, the mismatched trio must fend off the marauding monsters and try to survive until dawn. With plenty of witty asides, sexy encounters and flesh-tearing scenes, this low budget gem delivers the goods!

There is a lot of talk about the new vampire comedy, "Bite Marks" which is now making its way on the festival circuit. We don't often get a gay horror comedy so I am pretty sure that is the reason or the talk. Because it is a comedy, we know not to take it seriously and that must be remembered throughout because if you take it seriously you not only miss the point but the fun as well. You should also know that the movie is low budget so there are not many locations, actors or frills. You will probably think that there can't be a reason to see another schlocky movie but I have to disagree, I love a movie that doesn't make me think and just allows me to have a good time. Sure, some of the jokes are bad and the acting is so so but it is fun.

The plot is simple-Brewster has an older brother who is suddenly missing when he is on a job delivering coffins cross-country. He picks up Cary and Vogel, a hitchhiking gay couple with the hope that they will keep him awake as he drives and since their relationship is on the rocks, they will discuss their problems as straight Brewster listens. Something went wrong with the GPS and they find themselves in what seems to be an abandoned junkyard and there the truck breaks down. As it gets dark, the coffins open and out come the vampires who are so hungry that they are out for . Now the real test comes-will Brewster, Vogel and Cary survive the vampires or each other?
