Latin Boys Go To Hell (1997)
Member Rating:  
This deliberately broad and overwrought gay-themed comedy-drama concerns a handful of young Hispanics living in Brooklyn whose myriad sexual obsessions are matched only by their fascination with the "telenovela" (Latin-American soap opera) Dos Vidas. Justin (Irwin Ossa) is a mild-mannered assistant to a photographer who specializes in Hispanic beefcake with campy flourishes. Justin is strongly attracted to his cousin Angel (John Bryant Davila), who has arrived in town to do some photo sessions with his boss, but while Justin is tentatively out of the closet, Angel wavers between the gay and straight worlds, and he sets his sights on Andrea (Jenifer Lee Simard), a flamboyantly sexy woman whom he meets at a dance club. Braulio (Alexis Artiles), Andrea's closest friend, is involved with Carlos (Mike Ruiz), who is flagrantly unfaithful and doesn't put much stock in safe sex. Carlos puts the moves on Justin, who reluctantly succumbs to his advances, but when Brauilo learns of Carlos' latest infidelity, he finds himself drawn into the tales of jealousy and revenge from Dos Vidas and is driven to violent retribution against his lover. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    This movie is watchable, but very low budget. The acting overdramatic at times, but I've seen worse.

    What a hoot. This movie is totally campy and very funny.

    Very cheap. The actors might as well stick to waiting tables. Only Davila is believable, but not consistent. The movie as a whole is slighly funny and somewhat campy. It's worth watching for the goofy, drama-queen story line. With this band of drop-outs they should have gone with pure comedy instead of the cheesy attempts at drama. The little gun used as a weapon so small in hand it couldn't pass for anything but a toy. Was that supposed to be a deliberate joke? I stuck through because there were only 7 scenes and I wanted to see the ending. Color this early John Waters, but worse.
