 Zerophillia February 6, 2010
M. Harrison
This film was really fun. I bought it after seeing it on cable and realizing I would want to watch it many more times. The tone is light, and the romance is strong. The film is built around young people who slowly need to learn to accept unexpected things about themselves. While it's a gender bending theme, its appeal is broad. It's the funny film, with depth, and characters that are engaging and likable. Shot in Oregon the scenery is a pleasant part of the film.
 Zerophilia is a Ten October 28, 2009

This film has a special place in my heart, and I can't rate it highly enough. Not only is the plot quirky, funny, and complex, but the film touches on some elements of human nature that have been swept under the rug for far too long. Beneath the humor--and there is plenty of it--there is the messy truth of our lives, served up in the Oregon rain. Watch this flick, then watch it again and again, as I have. BTW the soundtrack is great, and I read on a blog somewhere that it took years to put together the musical score. Awesome.
Very cool special effects September 20, 2009

Zerophilia is something I never knew about. Being able to switch from one gender to the other is a real disorder I think according to the film. I think it would be cool to switch, but I'm not in the film. lol Anyway, it's a great movie with special effects, romance and being comfortable in your own skin.
Zerophilia: A different kind of movie September 8, 2009
A. M. Melzak (T-town, OH, USA)
I was fortune enough to see this movie once before buying it. I had heard of it years before I had been able to while I had a brief stint in NYC. The premise of the movie is what I found to be the most interesting in comparison to many movies I come across. What if you had to ability to be male or female. Since this subject isn't brought up much at all in the movie industry I really went out of my way to find it. What this movie gave me was interesting, inventive and unique. As long as you don't mine the premise. I enjoyed the acting, they were pretty believable and the dialogue was very real in my book. If you're looking for a different kind of movie, don't mind the premise or some slight female nudity, I highly recommend. You start to look at person on a whole in a different light.

So I FINALLY got to see Zerophilia this weekend (after having ordered it from Amazon), and I tell you it was a gem!
For those who haven't yet seen it, then do so ASAP - for those who have, you know what I'm talking about.
It was cute and funny. Okay not over the top like some Hollywood productions, but it had that uniqueness of an "Indy" (independent film) feel to it.
I found myself chuckling and L-ing OL (Laughing out Loud) at some parts, and feeling the main character's (Luke's) frustration on the whole gender switching ordeal.
And of course, I found myself asking the question(s), what would it be like to be able to gender switch on a whim? (although in the film there was more "manipulation" required ;) than just a whim).
And then, what gender would I ultimately choose to be?
And of course, Kyle Schmid (as Max) and the great "reveal" in the shower scene! <-- That really got me! I literally said out loud (but to myself): "Wow, I didn't see that coming!" And then things just fell into place.
I'm so glad I discovered this film (and of course if not having become a fan of Kyle since seeing him in "Blood Ties", I may have NEVER known about it.)
Zerophilia is a definite must see!! ;)
