DVD Review: "Join the Homosexual Intifada!"
Summary: 5 Stars
Hilarious tongue-in-cheek political satire, glamorizing "terrorist chic", and sexing it up to the extreme. You really need an open mind to enjoy this film. Some people focus on the questionable acting, but I believe it was all intentional. The blending of hardcore sex and politics is brilliant. Only Bruce Labruce could pull it off. It's hilarious and titillating, and yes, the plot is ridiculous, but it's meant to be. That's kind of the point. The ridiculousness only emphasizes the underlying message of the film. Make love, not war. Filled with the best catch lines ever, they stick in your mind long after the film ends. "The revolution is my boyfriend" is one of my favorites. I actually found it on a t-shirt online, so, of course, I had to buy it. Some other favorites are: "Heterosexuality is the opiate of the masses", "Kiss the captive!", "Madonna is counter-revolutionary", "Have you ever kissed a boy? I mean a boy kissing a boy" and many, many more. The opening scene is so pornographic and comical, you can't help but laugh out loud. As Gudrun shouts political propaganda while having sex with her boyfriend, another member listens while masturbating with a gun in the next room, using it as a phallus, and then shooting off the gun as he climaxes. It's great. It, graphically, prepares you for what's to come (so to speak). I'm sure the use of guns as phallic symbols has crossed everyone's mind, but Bruce Labruce, as usual, takes everything way over the edge. It's all over the top, but it's all good. This is definitely not a film for all tastes, but if you're adventurous, you need to pick this up, and "ride it like a pony".
Description of The Raspberry Reich
A film about modern left Germans adopting the culture of extreme left-wing movements of the 1970s. The female leader of the Raspberry Reich, Gudrun, forces her straight male followers to have sex with each other to prove their mettle as authentic revolutionaries. From the outrageous and provocative director Bruce LaBruce (HUSTLER WHITE, SUPER 8 ½), the film premiered at this year?s Sundance Film Festival.Bestsellers in DVD
