| Long before "The Crying Game," "Priscilla, Queen Of The
Desert,"
"The Birdcage"and "To Wong Foo..." there was the most original
homophobic comedy ever produced.
Lawrence Smalbut (Michael Palazzolo) lived your basic
average
macho lifestyle, until one night when he and his best friend, Richard
Cheese (Kent Butler), picked up a couple of women for a little fun.
During the height of passion, one of the "women" playfully bit Lawrence
on the butt. He didn't think much of it until he found out that the
woman wasn't a woman at all, but a dreaded "Dickenthrope," AKA
Queerwolf.
And to make matters worse, Lawrence discovered that because he was
bitten by this creature, he will transform into one himself at every
full moon.
The next night, when the moon rises, Lawrence goes
through
a physical change; his eyelashes get longer, his wrists become limper,
his butt gets fluffier, and fingernails grow out of his fingertips
with red nail polish on them. Horrors! Lawrence Smalbut has become
a Queerwolf.
He wakes up the next day in a men's sauna with several
gentlemen giving him the "thumbs up" sign. With the help of Madame
Muddyooch,
a local gypsy woman, Lawrence searches high and low in seek of a cure.
He ultimately gets help from a Reverand Paddumph (Hugh O. Fields),
who purges the evil force from him by performing a fagxorcism, complete
with pink vomit, beer and lipstick!
"Curse Of The Queerwolf" was inspired by a character in
Pirromount's "A Polish Vampire In Burbank," and was featured at the
Raindance Film Festival in London, England.
This feature length parody of "The Wolf Man" was
produced
in 1988 on a budget of $10,000 and was featured on the television
show "Hard Copy" as one of the most inexpensive features ever made.
In Summer of 2001, Mark Pirro produced a 25 minute
documentary entitled "Curse of the
Queerwolf: Completely from Behind" for a 2002 DVD remastered
release of Queerwolf. The documentary has interviews with many
of the cast and crew members who worked on Queerwolf.
