Editorial Reviews:
|
(Gay & Lesbian) Since its premiere in 2005, "Dante’s Cove" has grown from a cult sensation to a gay cultural phenomenon. Fun and provocative, the show has seduced thousands with its unabashed and unapologetic delivery of sex and camp, placing itself as the ultimate guilty pleasure. Season 2 is even more outrageous with the introduction of more deadly secrets, more intriguing twists and most importantly, more hot-bodied stars!

Summary: better and worse
Comment: The second short season of Dante's Cove presents us with a better storyline and worse dialogues. Episodes have grown to five and the season is concluded by as high -and lame- a cliffhanger as that at the end of "season" one.
We have already been introduced to the characters and we find ourselves in the middle of action now, which is always fine with me. Problem is that the script sounds for a good 80% of the time completely idiotic. Short, disjointed sentences are conveying little meaning, no information about the character who speaks them who by the way generally sounds like a complete moron.
The setting has been changed too and, while the beaches are just as beautiful, the new hotel Dante is much less impressive than the old one even if it is much larger and allows more room for interaction.
Acting is just as plain as it was in season one with the possible exception of Thea Gill and Jon Fleming (this taking the role of Adam) who are up to the not much required by the script.
There are several glossy sex scenes, all of them homosexual, most of them involving the male characters. They add nothing to the thrill, to the storyline, to the overall tension and interest if not the pleasing view of the finely groomed bodies of Jon Fleming and some of the others.

Summary: Could be better, but enjoyable as is
Comment: I hadn't heard too much about this show when I got this DVD. Suffice to say, I wasn't expecting much, but I liked it anyway. The dialogue and special effects needed some punching up, but the copious eye candy made up for any deficiencies in the acting (in my opinion, anyway). And why does each season of this series only do single-digit episode counts? They need more material than that. Anyway, I was thrilled to see that Tracy Scoggins has been keeping busy since her stint on Babylon 5, and I hope that this show lasts a while. She seems like she's having a lot of fun playing Grace. I know we haven't seen the last of this show, and that things can only get better from here.

Summary: A rare gem!!
Comment: Wow! The first sesason took off kinda slow. I think the writers didnt quite know where to take it, but the second season was amazing. A rareity to find such a fun frisy series that redifines witchcraft. Loved it! it was funny, scary, thrilling, mysterious, sexy, and enthralling all mixed into the second season. Cant wait for the 3rd season... and boy are the men sexy!!

Summary: Guilty Pleasure
Comment: Hey,
This is a great show if you get past the bad actors. It has great pleasure scenes and has a good solid storyline, It also has a bit of fun in it with the supernatural side to it, and it has a bit of romance thrown in as well. This is very much a winding down guilty pleasure at bed time type show which to be honest have you ever even heard off. This is def worth the buy and its worth the price.

Summary: Sex in the Gay Shadows
Comment: Dantes Cove II continues the gay soap opera where Dantes Cove I left off. It probably does not matter that there is some sort of logic to the plot of this mystical saga of sex from the dark side. It seems like everyone is still hot for innocent Kevin, the beautiful blond boy who awakened a warlock from the past. Guys just can't seem to keep their hands off of Kevin's hot body (he fortunately never seems to find time to put on a shirt), much to the chagrin of his muscular boyfriend Tobey. That is the most reality based aspect of this whole melodrama. Gay culture never seems to change. That people keep coming back from the dead is another matter. This is a not a film for anyone devotged to the Stanislovsky method, as there seems to be no need for any acting talent. All of the focus is upon which gay match up can have the hotest sex. The lesbians don't get left out of this erotic enclave, which is nice to see that the two sides of male/female gay culture come together in one film. Not to give away the ending (as if the plot really mattered), but Kevin is in as much jeopardy from the dark forces at the end of the movie as at the beginng.
