Brent Corrigan in "Judas Kiss"

Brent Corrigan is no stranger to non-pornographic film. He's been in Gus Van Santʼs Oscar-winning biopic, Milk, and the comedy, Another Gay Sequel. In Judas Kiss,  an independent film making the rounds of the gay film festivals this summer, he plays Chris Wachowsky, one of the men competing for the love of a young film student, Danny Reyes (Richard Harmon).

Judas Kiss is unusual in that it incorporates magical realism into a gay film. In it Zachary Wells (Charlie David), a failed filmmaker, gets a break when asked to return to Keystone University to judge its annual film festival. A quirk in time and space gives him the chance to reshape his destiny by influencing the younger Danny, whose film in entered in the festival. Danny is dating big man on campus Shane ...  but is drawn to Chris/Brent.

This is director J.T. Tepnapa's first feature; he's made two shorts previously, including Masturbation: Putting the Fun into Self-Loving, a parody of 1950s health education films.

Here's a sweet moment from the movie:
