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...
I am not sure why would anyone wanna watch this gory, extremely extremely graphic, almost silent film. In my world, people who made this and people who actually ended up enjoying this should probably get a few sessions done with a psychiatrist or something. Apparently the film itself came out as “Too Extreme for Mainstream” brand of horror. Also I am not sure why this film from Italy had a couple of dialogues in English.
Film begins with morning after a night of passionate sex between two men. Our lead soon starts exploring the apartment that he is in of the other guy (let's call him Clown). He stumbles upon a brutalized man being held captivate, he is knocked unconscious, only to wake to see his future fate as his now captor finishes his heinous work on the victim he will soon replace. There is forced rape, sex with blood and all kinds of shocking exploitation or the two people in captivation. This was sadism of another level. I think the only decent performance came from the lead guy portraying varying levels of emotional trauma while his character is stripped of every ounce of humanity in unthinkable ways.
There is almost no dialogue in this film give or take one or two lines. We instead have the running-time filled with crying or moaning and grunting, which to be completely honest was very annoying. I will say that the gore effects was brutal and plenty creepy clown moments. Assume all kinds of gay sexual torture and you will see here. I just question the reason for making this film in the name of art and creativity. (1/10)
