Sweet and has a great meaning behind it! Sometimes you just have to feed your imagination rather than knowing the truth! I honestly suggest watching this film!
This is an indie film, a short 30 minute film that made the rounds at smaller film festivals. Made by two friends as an initial foray into film making. It's a farce, short and simple, that aspires to nothing more than making the audience laugh. Peppered with jokes and kind-hearted, stereotypical depictions of gays, the film has fun. While not technically perfect (and occasionally overacted), it's a lot of fun and the film never takes itself too seriously.
Featuring a theme song sung by Gwen Stewart (from the original Broadway production of "Rent"). This film is silly fun; it knows what it is and doesn't aspire to be more.

I had the pleasure of viewing this film at the "Out on Film" festival in Atlanta and laughed till I had tears running down my face!! It is a smart and campy hetero/homo party fest!!!! It is silly campy fun with smart sophisticated humor. What a perfect combination!!! Take a "Carol Burnett Sketch" - mix it with a "Saturday Night Live" Sketch - sprinkle in some "Will and Grace" and a dash of a Laurel and Hardy short and then add some meat and you've got the "Gaydar Souffle". The script is a delight - the cast is sprinkled with campy fun actors and the whole package is 20 minutes well spent.
Every gay man has talked about their "gaydar", wishing they had one so they didn't have to waste time chasing cute straight boys they have no chance with. In this movie, that wish comes true. While funny, if a little stereotypical, and complete in its own right, it leaves a some key things unanswered. The star and co-producer, Terry Ray, was at the showing, and said that one of those questions in particular would be answered in a feature length version in the planning stages. There is a cat in the movie that's almost worth the price of admission alone. I'll give it a 7, just.

I saw Gaydar at a film festival and I loved it--in spite of the fact I only heard about half of it because everyone was laughing so dang hard. This movie was just plain funny. The concept is funny. The execution is funny. The cast is funny. And I swear to god, even the prop is funny. They were selling DVDs and I actually bought one. I bought the DVD to a 20 minute film--and I'm happy to report that I have no buyers remorse. I've already played it about 5 times for friends. If you're in the mood to analyze and look for profound meaning--go watch "E! True Hollywood Stories". But if your skeleton contains even one tiny funny bone, well then I most definitely recommend checking out Gaydar. By the way, LOVE the theme song!
