movie cover

Description:
A troupe of actors is hired to perform for a young boy's birthday at a remote mansion. The party goes well, except for some unusual behavior by the youngster and his grandfather, but then things take a turn for the worse when the police come by to warn everyone that a murderer is roaming loose in the area. The actors decide the safest thing to do is to stay in the mansion, but soon the bodies start piling up. Could the killer be the old man, the young boy, or one of the actors themselves?

Qvamp says:

It is nice to see a queer horror movie come out of France, and this one has lesbians, a gay man and at least one other male character that seems 'open' to experimentation.

The movie has a lot of references to 'Little Red Riding Hood', and is somewhat enjoyable. The characters, while believable are not very sympathetic and it's hard to care when they get picked off.

Blonde French actor Vincent Lecoeur is Wilfried and darkly handsome Clement Sibonie is Mattheiu.

A troupe of actors, composed of the young actors Wilfried and Matthieu and the actresses Sophie, Mathilde and the dumb Jeanne, is hired by a millionaire, Axel de Fersen, to present a performance of Little Red Riding Hood in his isolated castle to celebrate the birthday of his grandson. Meanwhile, the police advises that a serial killer is raping and killing young women in the woods around that area. The party goes well, except for some unusual behavior by the youngster and his grandfather, but then things take a turn for the worse when the police come by to warn everyone that a murderer is roaming loose in the area. The actors decide the safest thing to do is to stay in the mansion, but soon the bodies start piling up. Could the killer be the old man, the young boy, or one of the actors themselves?

The gay content is minimal, although the the sight of Matthieu and Wilfried up against a tree, making love, is great. Lecoeur's body and rump are lovely.

Filmed in the giallo style (Italian thrillers of the 60's-70's), it remebers sometimes to AQUARIUS/STAGE FRIGHT (1987), directed by Michele Soavi. But in this French movie the lesbian girls are the good ones...
