10 gay movie nasties!

Feature, By Licketysplit, 7th June, 2010

Featuring lazy stereotypes, lezploitation, homophobia, unfunny jokes, tragic acting and patronising plots, this list of LGBT movie moments will leave you cringing.

Sure, it's important to raise awareness of the great gay-themed films out there, but it's also good to be aware of the god-awful ones as well.

The movies listed below are not here because they feature bad things happening to GLBT people – tragedy and trauma are two key ingredients to a good story – but because they portray gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender people in a stereotypical or homophobic way.

If I admit I haven't seen any of those films, (except Silence of the Lambs), does that mean I need to get out more or that everyone else does.  :D
