THE SIXTH REEL
Carl Andress & Charles Busch; 2022; USA; 94 min.
Charles Busch understands classic Hollywood better than anyone. If you’re a fan of Psycho Beach Party or Die, Mommie, Die (SQFF 2003), you know what we’re talking about. Here, he is just one in a group of desperate people (including Margaret Cho and Tim Daly) trying to cash in on the sale of an unearthed horror film. It’s all the camp and comedy you’ve come to expect from Busch, but with a dash of unexpected poignancy about aging and legacy. We just don’t get enough queer caper flicks, and this one's a doozy!
