When I first saw But I’m a Cheerleader in the early 2000s on either IFC or Sundance, I couldn’t tell you which one honestly, I thought the entire concept was a subversive satirical look at gay panic. The film reminded me of John Waters in many aspects; I held it close to my heart. Then I learned that “pray the gay away” camps were a real thing, and much of the black humor suddenly didn’t... read more

" Date: 2/16/2021 Viewed: IMDB TV First Viewing Note: This movie has been on my watchlist for years after hearing about it. I would always see the movie on the shelf at Blockbuster back in the 2000s and I never bother to check it out. I finally watched this movie for the first time on IMDB TV (As of 2/16/2021) and I really enjoyed it. But I’m a Cheerleader is a solid LGBT movie from the late 90s in my opinion. I'm surprised that people didn't like the colorful production designs that this mo"

"FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: Couldn’t exactly tell which cut was being presented, as the logo for the German distributor followed the rating card instead of Metrodome’s. But given the length of the sex scene, this was probably the 92-minute cut? The dust was occasionally unnoticeable, and although the changeovers were so filthy you could hear it and resulted in the opening frame being taken off course, they did virtually nothing to diminish the film’s length. DATE: October "
