Lesbian Speed Date From Hell (45 mins)
Company: Speed Daters Anonymous
Overcome with nesting syndrome and the lesbian urge to merge, Jackie gives lesbian speed dating a shot. The evening takes an unexpected turn when she runs into her former online conquest, Ashley, who has a little more than closure on her mind. Hell bent on revenge, she will stop at nothing to get what she wants out of Jackie, including the worst lesbian jokes imaginable. What follows is a mix of gore and hilarity, because what is horror without a few laughs? Will Kyle, the local male lesbian, or Regina, Jackie's pun-tastic neighbour, come to her rescue? But more importantly, will Jackie survive her..."Lesbian Speed Date From Hell!"
Lesbian Speed Date From Hell! is a sweat-inducing, titillating comedy-horror that will make you scream with laughter and/or laugh in terror.
You decide.
