Bruce C. Steele OutWeek The despoiling of an Innocent boy by a lecherous older man Is only the beginning of the march of gay stereotypes. May 20, 2020 Full Review Glenn Dunks Junkee While there's something to be said about the era in which it was made, there's no doubt Michael Thornhill's film would never see the light of day today given how repulsive its representation of gay men is.

Audience Member Of course it looks so awkward by watching a film made in 20-something years ago. Still, it was one bold piece for a story like this even for standard today. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Not impressed at all. Waste of time. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Based on a real life Australian Politician (apparently), rumour has it an ex Prime Minister no less!! Well my family was never like this! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Weird but entertaining Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Makes Mommie Dearest look like the very model of artistic restraint. If you love absurd camp TRASH, then you should be watching this movie this very moment. If you like your movies--How can I put this? Good.--if you like your movies good, then this one is not for you. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member One of those obscure films that I saw all those years ago, and would like to see again.
