Palm Spings Review!

June 29, 2010

The 2010 Palm Springs International Shortfest was a brilliant success as more than 500 people turned out to see the (Anything But) Fairy Tales program that featured Catching On: The Day the World Turned Gay! Director Nick Pistorino and Producer Chuck Pistorino were both in attendence in Palm Springs, CA and wanted to thank everyone for coming out to see our film!

Scott Brassart from The BottomLine Magazine wrote this fantastic review:

(ANYTHING BUT) FAIRY TALES
Sunday June 27, 2:30 p.m.
Camelot 1, 94 minutes

“(Anything But) Fairy Tales” is a strange mix of edgy, mostly darker tales about the further reaches of gay experience. The five films in this program are all relatively long – the shortest is Greg Ivan Smith’s Remission, at 14 minutes. Consequently, these five films are deeper and more involved than most shorts – with one really wonderful exception.

The exception is Nick Pistorino’s horror spoof, Catching On: The Day the World Turned Gay (18 minutes, USA). This hysterically funny zombie/horror movie spoof about gay contagion brought on by the legalization of gay marriage stars Will Neely as Brian McCabe, a sensitive straight boy desperately hoping to not be turned. This uproarious film rips on everything from televangelists to hard-core bikers to bowling, and spoofs a variety of zombie horror films – everything from Night of the Living Dead to the much more recent, and also very funny, Shawn of the Dead.
