Review of Dyke Hard

Dyke Hard (2014)
10/10
Definitely divisive, but if you like camp you'll love it

I adore this movie. I bought it based on the name alone, and have never regretted it! I'm gay, which definitely adds to my enjoyment, but I've shown it to people all over the sexuality and gender spectrums and they've all enjoyed it too. The film takes inspiration from a wide range of things- including, but not limited to, old-school battle of the band style musicals, the 80s (just in general), sci-fi B movies, scooby doo, and of course John Waters. They have called it a Waters tribute, in fact, and I think it succeeds beautifully on that front. There are bits where it seems like it might be becoming porn, and also some bits that are pretty violent- it's a cartoonish kind of violence so it doesn't bother me, but if that or sex scenes or seeing people's bits and bobs is a problem for you, you may not enjoy. Otherwise, I think it is a rollicking good time and highly recommend viewing parties and/or drinking games. Also, Payback is kind of a legit good song.
