Info

A homo of the disturbed kind -- think Eve Harrington and Norma Desmond's love child -- prowls fey gay Hollywood for his big break in this hilarious tale of unchecked ambitions. Hunky Boyd, a recent ex-con and seriously delusional aspiring actor, returns to the streets with only one goal: to become the reality series superstar he is destined to be. Through a mistaken identity, the newly blonde and newly named, Sean, ingratiates his way into the home of successful producers and lovers Derek and Collin, where the scheming young man lies, cheats, and seduces his way to the top--or does he?

Homewrecker Audience Reviews

Alicia I love this movie so much
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
moonmonday Homewrecker was a fun enough experience, although the fact is that the only character the audience is really rooting for is supposed to be the bad guy. Sort of, anyway. Dylan Vox is better than the script really deserves, and Rebekah Kochan plays a fantastic small part that, thanks to her screen presence, seems much more significant to the story.It's full of funny situations and hijinks, and there were plenty of laughs to be had. I also liked that most of the cast were older -- it's rare to see older men in gay-themed films, and that was a huge plus! But the central problem, and it's one that becomes increasingly obvious as the film goes on, is that Shawn/Boyd was seriously traumatized by something Derrick and Colin, the main couple, were responsible for and clearly forgot about. It's not to say that Boyd is to be excused for everything he does, but...it also wasn't his fault, it was theirs. They never really own up to it, and the overwhelming tone is that we're supposed to just forget about it and that, somehow, Boyd is to be blamed...for damage caused by other people. It's not to say that what he does is always right, but shouldn't these things raise more questions, and more meaningful questions at that, than they do? None of the couples we're supposed to sympathize with are particularly likable, except the two that own the fetishwear shop, and they're underdeveloped.So we're left with an unsatisfying conclusion that just seems like it's making a joke out of an industry that revolves around exploitation and selling out. It's especially unfortunate since it just perpetuates a cycle of abuse...which is shown more than adequately by the film's end. I'm sure it's something some won't think about, and apparently the writers didn't think about either. But at the same time, it really takes away from the fun and enjoyment of the film for those of us who have considered it.And on a side note: there's no way this would be what it's supposed to be. Legally, it's just not something that would work, and it certainly wouldn't leave Boyd in a situation he seemed to be in later. But it's also utterly unbelievable, and while it's easy to suspend disbelief before the end, the resolution itself is too ludicrous to be endured. Sorry, I don't buy it. And I don't want to, since Boyd was the most enjoyable character on screen.But it's a fun film other than that, at least for one viewing. Dylan Vox is always a pleasure, and he's always emanating charm and attractiveness. He's also a surprisingly good actor, and he's lent his talents to a number of productions and has yet to disappoint. He's always a lot of fun, and I can always enjoy at least his part in this film.I just really wish the script had been tighter and the writers had considered things they obviously didn't. I understand that it's impossible to account for casting when writing a role, but in this case, it really led to disaster. Something that should have been a fun, light romp became a more contemplative and sombre affair that left a bitter taste. That's a shame, especially considering what it could have been. The main characters are really hard to sympathize with and hard to like, but they're who the script assumes we're going to, and as a result, it's profoundly unsatisfying.Hopefully the production will try again and have more success at a different approach, a different project. If they do, they'll be lucky to get someone as good as Dylan Vox.
Irishchatter At the beginning of the movie, we see bad boy Shawn doing around twenty push-ups, has three days to get out of prison and has a grubby cell mate who teases him how hot he looks. The scene was so funny that I thought 'yep this movie is gonna be really good!'.However as the movie went on, we see a gay couple Colin and Derrick discussing about their reality show and finds out that Shawn will stay with them. I thought the two actors looked really uncomfortable and of course the camera angles didn't help either! The girl that played Sheila really suit the characters look but she didn't make the effort of acting more flirty to Shawn which is disappointing! To be honest I'm disappointed in this film and its a fact unfortunately! :/
YAS The premise of this movie is that a would-be actor insinuates himself into the life of a gay couple who have been signed to write and produce a cable reality show. There was plenty of room for this to go somewhere, but it just doesn't work, due at least in part to the fact that the wannabe actor, supposedly a former nerd who's become a hunk, isn't nearly as attractive as he (or the casting director) apparently thinks he is. He just comes across as a really annoying person, full of himself and tolerated for no apparent reason, who hangs around the nice couple's house and concocts lame schemes to break into their show. Alas, he's no Lucille Ball, nor is the film a "Man Who Came To Dinner." The story limps and stumbles along until, evidently sensing the end is near, it makes a desperate attempt to become a sort of '40s 'noir' (as directed by Douglas Sirk?), but it just doesn't make it. The supporting players are actually very good, but the 'star' is so unappealing that the film's good intentions never quite manage to inflate into anything worth watching.
ApolloBoy109 A sharp rift on All About Eve with shades of soap opera antics and funny funny plots twists. Sure the style is pure melodrama but it is smoothly directed and performed with honesty.Lead actor Dylan Vox playing Shawn/Boyd is hilariously over the top with a damn sexy smile. He's a "spanking" good time.Peter Szeliga (Derick) and Bruce L. Hart (Colin)(also credited writer) were assets to the production. Art direction; brilliant colors and attractive scenes. Rebekah Kochan playing Shelia deserves mention for her southern white trash rendition. Director Paul Hart drives the story at a good pace. The tasteful affaire de coeur between the boys are good, and in one key scene Mr. Vox strips off for a romp with full buns bouncing. Funny and sexy at the same time is a hard thing (no pun) to keep up. This is the sort of film that begs for a sequel. Dudes, treat your self to a heap of gay campy fun. Rent it!
