Sagat-Italian-Vanity-Fair-09

If you haven’t already, you absolutely must read this article in LA Weekly about Bruce LaBruce’s upcoming art-porn-film ‘LA Zombie.’ Here’s a deliciously, ridiculous quote:

I’m interested in porn partly because I hate porn,” [Bruce LaBruce] says. “I get frustrated that there isn’t more interesting stuff going on in it. I feel like I have to at least try to make something that’s a little more interesting. Also, for me, it’s kind of a statement about gay representation and the state of the gay movement, which has become so preposterously conservative that porn really is one of the last places where you can have radical expression on a certain level, in terms of really explicit homosexual material, in terms of extremes in representation and not just holding anything back.

Also, how did we miss ‘LA Zombie’s’ Francois Sagat in Italian Vanity Fair? Oh, that’s right. We don’t subscribe to Italian Vanity Fair. Thank goodness for The Gay Porn Times (NSFW) which brought this to our attention. Apparently Francois Sagat is all over the place lately making an appearance on Queerty and QueerClick (NSFW) and even in this French safe sex commercial which you can find on The Sword (NSFW)

Gents — behold, the first full length trailer for Bruce LaBruce’s upcoming film “L.A. Zombie” starring porn-star François Sagat due in theaters in 2010. This is LaBruce’s second Zombie art/porn/indie film. “Otto, or, Up With Dead People” — which follows a zombie named Otto (Jey Crisfar) who hitches a ride to Berlin and begins to explore the city — released in 2008.

LaBruce hasn’t been shy about his zombie obsessions, and he once again blurs the line between indie-film and porn in his latest project. This is a smart move, since “L.A. Zombie” will screen at both film festivals and have distribution through porn retailers thus doubling the film’s exposure and audience. DVD’s are also available on LAZombie.com.

In traditional LaBruce style, “L.A. Zombie” stars some unexpected characters including Santino Rice (”Project Runway,” and “RuPaul’s Drag Race”), Matthew Rush (”Another Gay Movie”), tattoo-clad supermodel, Tony Ward, and rapper DeadLee. Music: “I want to be you” by France De Griessen. Web: www.LAZombie.com.
