This week in movies you missed: My search for entertaining summer schlock on Netflix Instant continues. Who could resist a title like this?
What You Missed
In 2007, writer-director-exec producer Jaymes Thompson brought the world this ultra-low-budget camp-stravaganza shot in Tucson, Ariz.
Five gay couples headed to the “biggest gay party weekend of the year” find themselves forced to lodge at a run-down B&B owned by creepily dolled-up Helen (Mari Marks) and her daughter, Luella (Georgia Jean).
Despite a rainbow flag flying in front of the B&B, there are early clues something’s amiss. Such as the inn’s name, Sahara Salvation. The mincemeat muffins Luella offers to guests. (One contains an earring.) The way Helen introduces Luella as “my very lovely and still single daughter.” The fact that each room is stocked with five or so Bibles Sharpied with anti-gay messages. Oh, and the shrine to George W. Bush.
