Read our Weekly Gayzette for the latest (and gayest) movie screenings, community events, and industry news from the Bay Area and beyond!


Why the long face? Break out the smiles and the popcorn as we celebrate homo hilarity in nine comic shorts. We start (like all good lightweight bouts) with a Weigh In — a queer send-up of hyperventilating boxing promos. In the charming animation Bittersweet, an anxious schoolboy scrambles to retrieve a valentine he’s sent to his secret crush, while a cake delivery goes horribly wrong (until it goes just right) in Spark. Two longtime San Franciscans recount their unlikely first date in The Glory Hole, which calls for a sexy black latex dance break (Mask4Mask). In the post-apocalypse, our time-traveling hero breaks protocol to visit his sex-starved younger self, in Time Quest... while the human jukebox at a carnival serves up a gay fantasia in MeTube 2: August Sings Carmina Burana. Enjoy a fairy flashback to Frameline’s founding decade (that’s the ’70s, kids): a filmmaker who found a box of fabulous Super8 movie reels re-fashions them into The Radical Fairy Prince: A Love Story. And we close with a visit to a London bathhouse, where some of the guys are so unresponsive you’d think they were zombies—oh no! They are! It’s Sauna the Dead: A Fairy Tale.

In a world where fetish is the norm, the true nature of deviance stands out.

A night in a sauna turns into a fight for survival. Two men must overcome prejudice and join forces in taking down a horde of towel-wearing zombies. Who will live to see the dawn...?
