Movie Reviews of Socket
Movie Review: Socket
Summary: 4 Stars
Quite a well made gay love story with tragic serial killer twist.Some minor male nudity,very much in context and naturalistic but not especially erotic.
Quite well acted .Held my attention as story unfolded.
I enjoyed it as a good scifi yarn with beleivable characters.

a slow tired tome and not at all electrifying. I didn't finish half the movie, zzzzzzzzMovie Review: Almost the worst movie ever
Summary: 1 Stars
Ugh! Whoever spent their money to make this one, should find out how to get it all back. This movie doesn't even succeed as camp. Derek Long should be put on every casting director's "Do Not Call" list. Matthew Montgomery is possibly the only reason to watch this as he's a pretty darn good actor. Better yet, rent Long-Term Relationship instead.Movie Review: Electro Lust
Summary: 1 Stars
Simply ghastly film with an interesting premise, a talented (and comely) Matthew Montgomery, and absolutely nothing else going for it. Obviously made on a limited budget, this sci-fi tale of a lightning strike survivor and his involvement with a group of electroshock fetishists (also survivors of lightning strikes)could still have been a success, had there been a decent script, a competent lead actor, and some semblence of direction. As it is, the film is a frustrating waste of time.Movie Review: Socket to me
Summary: 4 Stars
I enjoyed this movie. Even though it's not the best movie of any of the genres it crosses, it certainly is not "the worst gay movie ever", as touted in the hyperbolic reviews which trash it. SOCKET has a unique premise and carries it out well. Without over-analyzing the physics or having a degree in engineering, I was able to sit back and enjoy a fun ride with likable characters and a light presentation. I was a little disappointed because, I don't know why, I expected more gore. I guess when I learned of the concept of the movie, I thought it sounded very David Cronenberg... so I imagined there'd be more gore. One of the positive aspects of the movie is that it is a movie with gay characters that isn't about being gay. I think it has cross-over appeal for a hetero audience not afraid of seeing men naked as much as we see Sharon Stone naked in her "thrillers". Also, the nudity isn't as gratuitous as other reviwews here would have you believe. This isn't one of those movies that's all about sex & naked gays with a loose story hung around it. Here, the story and characters come first. I think the problem other reviewers had with this movie was a preconcieved notion of what they were going to see. I was disappointed with the lack of gore when I was expecting buckets, but I realize it wasn't the movie makers' fault I expected that without knowing the movie well before seeing it. I guess the movie is at least unique in the fact that its premise has a lot of possibilities- I think it is worth a look with an open mind and few preconcieved notions.
