This indelibly vivid, Brooklyn-set sex-melodrama posits Latino culture against the Anglo-American "show business" milieu that appropriates and stereotypes it. Go to Full Review

08/31/2010 Cheesy porn acting - without the porn! See more 05/11/2009 Ridiculous but campy fun! See more 05/11/2009 Ridiculous but campy fun! See more 01/06/2008 Latin Boys Go To Hell is an atrocity masquerading as a parody, but it didn't fool me. Do yourselves a favor and don't waste your money unless you're interested in seeing some terrible softcore porn. The writing, directing, production and acting are all equally inferior and early on the movie just becomes laughable. Irwin Ossa gives a dry, wooden performance as the lead character, while his counterpart John Bryant Davila sleepwalks through his role. It's hard to believe that Guinevere Turner is part of this: granted it's only a brief cameo as one of the telenovela actresses, but nevertheless, a woman of her talent is so out of place here. As a gay Latino, I found this movie insulting and even moreso because there is such a lack of Latin gay presence in films that it's embarrassing to have this as one of the first offerings. Luckily there are top-tier Latino movies out now like Quinceanera and East Side Story.
