Queer feature film Judas Kiss is picking up awards on the festival circuit. Most recently it picked up three awards at TLA’s annual Gaybie Awards. Judas Kiss is about a filmmaker who visits his old school and through a strange quirk in time and space he gets to revisit one of the key choices in his life.
The film was awarded Best Drama; leading man Charlie David (last seen in Dante’s Cove) was named Best Actor, while Sean Paul Lockhart won Best Supporting Actor. Lockhart is well known to gay audiences under his adult film pseudonym Brent Corrigan. Recently the actor has been making a move into more mainstream films.
Last month OUTinPerth’s resident horror film expert Gavin Pitts reviewed another of Corrigan’s acting efforts I was a Teenage Werebear which is part of the compilation film Chillerama. That film has also just been given a Rondo Award.
Corrigan noted the dual wins on his Facebook page telling fans,
‘I can’t say how happy and surprised I am! Two awards in just a couple of days – thanks so much to all the people who make these wonderful things possible. You’ve made at least one young man very, very happy…and what an encouraging welcome to the mainstream!’
