Critic's Choice — Josh Lanyon

If there's one thing film critic Crispin Colley can say about his ex-boyfriend Rey, it's that Rey likes to remain friends with all his former lovers. Rey's a friendly guy. Maybe too friendly, judging by the incident that drove the first and last nail in the coffin of their relationship.

But now Rey's been hired for a DVD commentary on a classic horror flick. In typical Rey-fashion, he's used his clout as a lauded director to win Cris a spot on the commentary right beside the star of the film, his idol, Angelo Faust.

The recording of the commentary goes about as smoothly as a half-decayed film through a stuttering projector…but that's nothing compared to the strange scene that unfolds once the tape's done rolling.
