A sharp, low-budget queer drama that proves intimacy doesn’t need spectacle. The Sleepover turns one long night into a surprisingly rich study of trust, projection, and honesty.

The Sleepover: A Microbudget Masterclass in Indie Queer Anti-Melodrama

The Sleepover (2021) proves that lez is more. God, that was tacky, but I just couldn’t help myself. I swear this film is better than that joke makes it sound. For one thing, it is indeed minimalist…

#TheSleepover is one of those family crime caper stories that is entirely what's expected of the genre.

I was looking for fully mindless entertainment and this delivered. It's absolutely not good at all, in terms of cinema or a quality filmic experience, but if you want to shut your mind off for a couple of hours while being mildly and predictably "entertained", this fits.

Like we usually do on #SpecScriptShoutOut day, we start by boosting all of the shout outs we've seen since the last celebration day. And since this is the first time we're doing this on Mastodon, and a lot of shout outs are still on Twitter, we'll share the screenshots of the tweets, and if we know the writer is on Mastodon, we'll tag them on here. Like this shout out for @Daynadirects for her script #TheSleepover.
