Movie Reviews of The Lair: Complete First Season
Movie Review: A Bit Corny but Fun
Summary: 3 Stars
The series is fun but if your looking for serious acting then I would suggest this is not for you. There is lots of skin but the "orgy" gets a bit tired in every scene as they never do anything much. I will not purchase season 2.Movie Review: Anything New?
Summary: 1 Stars
To all those reading this, I hope you take the time to consider. I will not say that this video is a waste of your time and money. I will say it was a waste of mine though. The concept was a good idea. However, they fell short of the supposed intended target. This series is severely lacking in the detail work that makes a series great. Their hero is painted a hero from the beginning, he isn't made to stand the trails that make a hero. While the "bad-guy" (in my opinion, the hottest guy on the show) lacks the depth and definition that made him a villian.
This show is only focusing on the young and shallow. If they wanted to attack all genres of the community, a little action, a dash of humor appropriately placed, and a well-served villian who knows how to act with a flair. Garnish the serving with some well placed hi-jinxs that is sure to keep the audience feeding out of their hand. That, and you could have picked a better looking hero.
One of the key differences between DANTE'S COVE and THE LAIR is that THE LAIR has no cliff-hangers or segways. Everything here is cut and dry as you would expect a vampire to act. Undead or alive, this series lacks the backbone to make it a true cult classic in the gay community. Hope they have better luck next time around.
Movie Review: Loved visiting The Lair
Summary: 4 Stars
I really enjoyed the first season of this series. It is so much fun to watch. It has horror, gay vampires with hot bodies, uncensored nudity and really gets you invovled with the story. It is from the makers of Dante's Cove. I am looking forward to a second season. There was a very exciting season finale.Movie Review: Bad, Just Bad
Summary: 1 Stars
THE LAIR is truly disappointing on so many levels, one has to list them:
1) If you're expecting hot guys like on DANTE'S COVE, forget it.
2) Bad acting and insipid plots.
3) Overall production quality is worse than either DANTE'S COVE or the quality-production of the detective series set in Albany, also a HERE! product.
4) If there was FF male nudity, I didn't notice it, perhaps too busy FFing thru the episodes, mysteriously 6 half hour segments split between two DVDs, I suppose to justify a Boxed Set format, which is more prestigious.
5) The gay vampire club masquerading as sex club in THE LAIR is also manned by the same bleached blond "actor" and looks and operates like the sex club featured on season two of DANTE'S COVE. Why? Don't know.
To sum, for camp fun and better production values and great-looking guys, far better to stick with DANTE'S COVE, even if it is a long wait between seasons.
Movie Review: "THE LAIR" Come Join The Club!!
Summary: 4 Stars
The Lair is a private gay club run by vampires, which use the club as a source for attractive young men to feed from. Thom (David Moretti), a local journalist in the small island town begins digging into the anonymous bodies turning up drained of blood, endangering his boyfriend and coming to the attention of the head vampire, Damian (Peter Stickles), who sees Thom as the reincarnation of his own dead lover. The Lair is an original series, from US specialty channel Here! TV with a first season of six 30-minute episodes. With similarities to Here! TV's "Dante's Cove" focusing on hot guys and the occult, "The Lair" is pure fantasy escapism and will definitely do more than merely entertain it's target audience! All World's Video fans will be pleased to see Brad Benton (a.k.a. Dylan Vox) in the role of Colin, as well as hunky Colton Ford as Sheriff Trout. Fans of "Dante's Cove" are encouraged to join me as I'll be pleased to add this guilty pleasure to my "Dante's Cove" Season 1 and Season 2 sets, and hopefully there'll soon be a release of "The Lair: Season 2," however the final episode gives no indication of the series continuing at all. I would have preferred "The Lair" to have been 1 hour episodes with more quality time and character developement spent on this creative show. It could've been as good as "Dante's Cove" if not even better! Still, Hot Stuff!
