Summary: Refreshingly different take on the horror genre!
Review: David DeCoteau breaks the traditional mold for low budget horror films in the The BrotherHood. Finally, a cast of beautiful boys become the centerpiece in a genre that stereotypically has "big on the breasts and small on the grey matter" teenage girls as victims. Decidedly homoerotic (as is the sequel, Brotherhood II), but never crossing the line where one could say that this is a "gay horror film", The Brotherhood is unique in that while being highly erotic (lots of scenes in "whitie tighties" for the male leads), and definately an homage to the male form, the film never becomes gratuitously sexist, nor does it contain nudity. Even more remarkable, the acting is superb! Nathan Watkins, as the male lead, Chris, is not only extremely handsome, and a delight to watch on screen, but he has talent as an actor. Refreshing to see this new genre, which DeCoteau refers to as "horror films for girls" (though admits freely the homoeroticism is intentional), newcomers to DeCoteau will find that it *is* quite possible to have stunningly visual actors, great acting talent, decent plot and dialogue in a genre of films that often times just stoops to mindless "sexploitation" and formula. Well done! Teenage girls and gay men who like the horror genre will find this DVD well worth it... and, news is that DeCoteau has heard loud and clear from his fans how much we appreciate it. The Brotherhood III and IV are already in production, and for those who find this film an enjoyable one (for whatever reason) will like the sequel as well, and should also check out DeCoteau's "Voodo Academy" (be warned though... make sure you get the DIRECTORS CUT of Voodo Academy as Full Moon initially released the film with a full 20+ mins. cut out, because of the homoerotic nature of the film.)

Summary: Greatly Godawful
Review: Finally a horror movie that shows something besides girls' cleavage -- guys' cleavage. Hunky college freshman Chris (Samuel Page), who evidently forgot to pack any shirts, becomes entangled with a secret society of guys who hang around in their underwear gazing lustfully at each other -- oh, and drink blood so they can stay forever hunky. One might consider this a homophobic association of gay people with vampires, except that Chris has a doting roommate who sits awfully close to him on the bed and also forgot to pack any shirts. Roomate struggles to unravel the mystery, getting himself into all sorts of dangerous spots and finally mounting a daring rescue. At the end of the movie, they walk off together, no doubt to transfer to West Hollywood Tech. It's been done before, obviously -- Corey Haim plays a gay boy trying to de-vampirize his brother in "The Lost Boys." But never with so much eye-candy and homoerotic sizzle, and a quiet boy-next-door romance on top of it. If only somebody had the nerve to use the "g" word, just once, it would get 5 stars.

Summary: No complaints
Review: I borrowed this movie on a whim, and am I glad I did. It's not the most popular movie out there, and it's cast isn't all that famous, although most of them are certainly HOT!! This is one of those horror movies where you end up rooting for the villains, because something about them just draws you in. It's sort of a wild spin on the old Vampire legend, where only the bare facts are true. This group of cute guys, who are in the most prestigious fraternity in the nation, are the villains. Devon is the obvious leader, and there are his three friends, Michael(which you pronounce Muh-kale), Jordan, and Barry. They are forever young as long as they pay a price - drinking blood - and when they graduate, they simply go to a new college and take on new identities, to relive their glory days over and over again. But every 100 years, Devon and the guys need something extra: new blood. That's where another cutie, Chris, comes in. He's healthy - a jock, an innocent - no drugs or drinking, and so they choose him as the "lamb". They, uh, turn on the charm (and whoa do they turn on the charm!), and slowly draw him into their circle. You should watch this to find out what happens in the end, but let me tell you, the hero ain't who you think it is.

Summary: The Brotherhood- the movie of a million lifetimes
Review: I love this movie. It centers around one of my favorite subjects...the dark side. Here, some blood suckers have a fraternity where unsuspecting college freshman, Chris, is their next recruit. But he doesn't expect what's coming up. It is a great movie and I've watched it many times. I love it and I greatly recommend it. If u like vampires and things of that sort you will like this movie. And another thing...Devon is hottt!!!!!(and in case u didn't know he's the "head honcho" of the blood brothers)

Summary: different story line but really good
Review: I rented this movie thinking it was about vampires, I come to find out that its not but a play off vampires and how vampires are a myth they are the reality. Very beautiful guys actors along with one really annoying girl actress makes this movie worthwhile i recommend it to anyone looking for a short thrill you will be very pleased.

Summary: SUBTLETY HOMOEROTIC
Review: If you like Abercrombie and Fitch male models, look no further! It's about time that gorgeous young men are the bait in the horror genre films. If this appeals to you, then you MUST see the uncut version of VOODOO ACAMEMY and the price is right (very inexpenive!). So get THE BROTHERHOOD now! (Also recommended: BROTHERHOOD TWO (Young Warlocks) and FINAL STAB. All are directed by David DeCoteau.
