Witless, sophomoric and relentlessly frenetic, 9 Dead Gay Guys... is about as funny and understated as its title.

The story of two lads from Belfast as they stumble their way through the London gay underworld in search of 'gainful employment'. This being the offering of sexual favours to older gay men in order to subsidise their respective giros. 9 Dead Gay Guys is a high-camp send-up of gay stereotypes.

What are critics saying?
The New York Times by Dave Kehr
The film strains mightily to be flashy and hip but finishes more in the realm of the merely distasteful.
New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
Heavily influenced by Guy Ritchie, director Mo gets most of his comic mileage from a Hasidic Jew and an angry dwarf -- which should tell you everything you need to know.
The execution is actually worse than the premise. Nonstop racial, sexual and cultural stereotypes parade across the screen with little wit or real humor to guide them.
Los Angeles Times by Kevin Thomas
Feeble and unfunny.
TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh
Walks a thin line between refreshing irreverence and shameless exploitation of offensive gay stereotypes.
San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle
If garbage could think, it would look down on 9 Dead Gay Guys as garbage.
Offensive and unwatchable.
