Summary: So when is the sequel?
Review: This was a stupid movie. Totally no social redeeming value whatsoever.
And so i was chuckling all the way through it.
Lab Ky Mo stated that this movie was inspired a lot by South Park, and it sure looked it. And since I've seen every single episode of South Park more than once, I felt right at home with the set decoration and the characters. And the satirical dumbness just for the sake of the fun of satirical dumbness.
So when is the sequel?
Mackey and Mulhern had a good chemistry together as a comedy team. It was pretty amazing how well they could bounce absurdity off each other. And it would be a real shame to waste this fact.
And the ending of the movie left things wide open for a sequel. That kiss said that more needs to come.
Such as Byron and Kenny discovering that they had already become too much a part of each other. That they already had gone through too much male-to-male bonding. And Byron finds himself too much a lonely guy without Kenny. And Kenny finds himself with a big void in himself without Byron around. Neither of these characters can be described as intellectual geniuses, but who says stupid guys can't need or feel love for each other. Just because they're stupid mentally, that doesn't have to mean they're also stupid emotionally. And the sequel could show the trials and tribulations of Byron and Kenny discovering that they are now a part of each other and nothing else will work. And this will open up all kinds of opportunities to have fun lampooning things that are in dire need of being lampooned. Don't rehash the first movie, though. The first movie was a works-only-once joke. So brand new jokes and silly absurdities will have to be thought up. And because most of the characters from the first movie are missing-in-action for an obvious reason, here's a chance to bring in some more oddball characters to have fun fooling around with. Yep, another chance for cartoon mania to run completely amok.

Summary: A Mildly Interesting Sex farce
Review: Word of warning: if you are even the slightest bit offendable, this movie is not for you. Everyone is a target here. Gays, Jews, blacks, the elderly, short people, lesbians, not one topic is sacred.That said, this off the wall sex farce has its moments, but never quite gels into anything memorable. The plot, such as it is, revolves around two London club drinkers (Kenny and Bryon) who are willing to go down on the locals in a gay bar for drink money, all the while insisting that they aren't gay. (Or are they?) Then comes the news that one of the regulars is dead, and the intimations that there is a substantial amount of cash hidden somewhere the property of one of his regular tricks. Naturally, the men who find it first are going to be the collectors. But not before 8 more dead gay guys make their way into the picture for different silly reasons. Problem is, these characters are rushed in and out of the movie so quickly that you may never get a clue as to what their function is other than to become the punch line of a tasteless joke. Ultimately, "9 Dead Gay Guys" is more bark than bite. If there had been a little more attention to developing this into more than a couple of obvious naughty laughs, it could have been so much funnier. Not like tastelessness is a problem with the movie, the whole design is to BE without taste and offend as many folks as quickly as possible. Now if all that sounds appealing to you, you'll probably enjoy the movie and its running gags about sex, gays, death, drinking and the Really Hard Red Bull Test. Of which Kenny may just be the one man who can pass, in more ways than one.

Summary: A campy and irreverent search for a hidden stash of cash
Review: Young Irishman Kenny decides to follow in the footsteps of his best mate Byron, who left to make his fortune in the big city -- London. He finds Byron shacked up in an abandoned building, but worse, he learns that his best mates been earning his money not in some blue-collar trade but as a hustler at the local gay bar. In spite of this, Kenny decides to stay on with his mate and soon finds himself drawn Byron's life, as his money quickly runs out. But things take an unusual turn when words spreads that The Queen has been murdered. Stories abound about a hidden trove of cash tucked away in the gigantic bed she shared with her lover, Golders Green, an Orthodox Jew. Determined to find the money, they set off around London in search of Golders' house, leaving a trail of accidental deaths, a desparate dwarf, and Kenny discovering the truth about himself. Writer/Director Ky Mo Lab's first film is irreverant, ballsy, campy and just plain fun. The dialogue is sharp and funny, and delivered incredibly well by all the actors. Glen Mulhern and Brendan Mackey are wonderful as the duo of Kenny and Byron. They come across as genuine friends, willing to help one another out in a pinch. The featured actors are equally fine, including Vas Blackwood, Steven Berkoff, Michael Praed, and Karen Sharman. But, Raymond Griffiths almost steals the entire movie as The Desparate Dwarf who only wants someone to have sex with him. The movie doesn't take itself too seriously, which makes it even more enjoyable. A great film that will have you laughing out loud.
