The latest offering from provocative queer filmmaker, actor and self-described ‘reluctant pornographer’, Bruce LaBruce is released on DVD this month, ready to stick a celluloid finger up to society.
The Misandrists depicts a militant lesbian separatist cult, The Female Liberation Army, plotting to throw a revolution to dismantle the patriarchy by any means necessary. Their leader is adamant that the way to achieve full global domination is through lesbian sex and the spreading of the resulting pornography. Just when you thought Bruce had mellowed, right?
Having already upended the fetishism of skinheads while veering into hardcore territory with his feature No Skin Off My Ass, and turned gay porn-star François Sagat into a sexy brain-hungry member of the undead in LA Zombie, you can be sure a LaBruce movie will be a conversation starter at the very least.
To say we’re equal parts excited and nervous is putting it mildly.
