After a night of drugs and debauchery results in the fatal overdose of an underage gay man, an innocent bystander is left to take the blame. Upon his release from prison, the guilty party becomes the focus of an eccentric killers revenge.

GASP! will end its fourth festival with what is quite possibly the most camp and most gay slasher film you will see all year. Meat is big, bold and relentlessly entertaining from start to finish, introducing a killer who has plenty of potential to become a new horror icon. Homoeroticism, gore and inventive death scenes are combined alongside important political commentary on the state of America right now. This highly ambitious blend of slasher and erotic thriller is a must-watch for all horror fans and has to be seen on the big screen!
