This week, we'll show the complete first season of a sexy horror series about supernatural events in the lives of a gay couple and their hot-looking friends.
*Dante’s Cove* — Episodes 1 & 2 (i.e., the complete first season) *Running time:* 84 minutes + 106 minutes *Dante's Cove* is an American LGBT-oriented horror television show. The series airs on *here!*, a premium gay-oriented network. Created by Michael Costanza and directed by Sam Irvin, Dante's Cove combines elements of the horror and soap opera genres in telling the story of Kevin (Gregory Michael) and Toby (Charlie David), a young couple seeking to be together and overcome the dark mystical forces that conspire to separate them. The show debuted in 2005 to a mixed critical reception. Gay-interest *Instinct* magazine, called the series a "guilty pleasure TV hit...with...camp goodness and sexy soap appeal." *Viewer review 1:* Dante's Cove explores a witch named Grace played over the friggin top by Demonic Toys veteran Tracy Scoggins. She curses her fiancée Ambrocious who is played by the semi-attractive William Gregory Lee after he is found getting done in the backdoor by the butler. She traps him in what looks like an S&M room and leaves him there for centuries. The only thing that can break his curse is a kiss from a young man. Enter the happy over-sexed couple Kevin and Toby. Toby is moving back to Dante’s Cove for some strange reason and wants Kevin to go with him. But Kevin is not out and Toby has trust issues with him because of past relationships. So they have a big argument. Kevin goes home, gets slapped by his stepfather and rushes to Toby in Dante's Cove. There is mostly gay guy sex and Gregory Michael whom plays Kevin and Charlie David whom plays Toby have great bodies and genuinely good chemistry even if they can't act worth a damn. Hotties fill out the rest of the cast. And it picks up in its second half as an intriguing supernatural soap opear. There are sordid backstories, murder, cheating, and past relationships mixed in with some witchcraft, etc. It's all pretty interesting. And it's all campy and trashy as hell. It indulges in its ridiculousness and has a great time doing it. As you will too when viewing it. Check it out! *Review 2:* Make no mistake: Dante's Cove is targeted primarily for the gay male audience. Its young, cute, hunky and beautiful male actors aren't cast by accident. While their acting doesn't quite hit the mark, the main characters, Kevin and Toby, do well, and I suspect may improve further in the remaining segments. In their scenes together, they represent a plausible young gay couple in love–refreshing and what most gay (and straight) people need to see. Sure, the great bodies and handsome faces are wonderful, but we all want love, and this show provides the chance to vicariously jump head first into more than just sex.\ Roll all of the show's elements together, and you have an entertaining, albeit exaggerated plot, that adheres to the show's preternatural basis. Dante's Cove is not about BEING gay, but more pointedly that gay people find themselves in everyday AND extraordinary situations--trying to navigate life's labyrinth and survive (Wow! exactly like straight people do!). *(Reviews and info extracted from IMDB and Wikipedia)* ------------------------------------------------------------------- One intermission during which light refreshments will be served. *First screening begins at 5.00 p.m.* Venue: The Humsafar Trust's Drop-in Centre, 4th floor, Municipal Transit Building (Vakola Municipal Market Building), Near Raheja Point and Vakola Masjid, Santacruz (East), Mumbai.
