A Revry original, Unconventional is a really well-liked queer dramedy that feels totally different from the usual stuff. The heart of the story is about two pretty eccentric queer siblings and their partners trying to build a family that doesn't follow the traditional rules. It takes a super raw and unfiltered look at queer life, diving deep into things like mental health, addiction, and how complicated identity and relationships can get. It’s not afraid to get messy or show people at their most vulnerable, and it really pushes boundaries while showing a lot of different queer experiences. The first season has nine episodes, and each one is about a half-hour long. The story centers on Noah, a grad student who’s been struggling for years to wrap up his PhD. He’s been with his husband, Dan, for nine years, and they’ve recently gotten married and moved to Palm Springs. While they're trying to figure out how to start a family and have a baby, they decide to shake things up by in...
Chris along with his 2straight male model friends get invited by a a photographer for a cowboy shoot. But as per their agent Tess, they shouldn't do any nude modeling yet.

Surprisingly, the killings continue and one by one people start to die there as well. First the 2 other male models, then the blonde gay couple, then the photographer and another assistant. Tess, her girlfriend and Chris are the only ones remaining alive when the final big reveal of the killer happens.
This movie felt pretty much a joke. The models were naked at the drop of a hat for no reason whatsoever. I mean, I am not complaining about seeing hot bodies and penis throughout but after a while, it loses novelty. The acting by everyone was just fair. Their acting and delivering every lines seems they were reading it from a visual aide and or memorizing it. The big reveal at the end does surprised me, because I wasn't expecting it but besides that if you really do have to watch this film, you can easily watch it at twice the speed. That way you wont have to waste that much time at least. As I mentioned above, this is not a gay cinema per say, but its very clear that the target audience is gay.
A badly acted murder mystery whose only positive thing is a whole lot of nudity, this one can be avoided. Watch porn instead. (3/10)
