Dante is a lonely, middle-aged, gay man in 1991. He came out later in life, so he missed out on the experience of being young and queer, along with all the love and lust that comes with it. When he finally works up the courage to make up for lost time, he is rejected and condemned. At his most desperate, Dante hears laughter echoing within a gay nightclub gloryhole. As he nears the fluid-drenched stall door, he quickly finds himself transported to the lair of a demon, who is ready to offer him eternal youth and beauty. Although Dante seeks more than just sex, he nervously accepts this unrefusable offer. It doesn’t take long for the demon to reveal the strings attached–to keep his new body, he must kill his hookups every full moon, “when the gays are their most feral.” It turns out Dante is pretty good at being a killer, that is until he falls in love with one of his victims.
Three gay men each find themselves in modern relationship issues through three separate coincidences. Wyatt learns that his best friend Logan is unknowingly falling in love with his ex, while Jason is shocked to learn the owner of the pool he's cleaning is the man he fell in love with over a one-night stand eight years earlier. Finally, therapist Peter Lesh has become dangerously obsessed with his client Lex who tells him he's just met the man of his dreams.
Lex is staying at his family's house with best friend Kenny. The former is recovering from a recent suicide attempt, while the latter is trying to spend a summer apart from his husband. Screenwriter Shane is staying in the summerhouse, while Lex's overbearing actor brother and his girlfriend are staying too. Add their neighbour into the mix, who is in love with Lex, who is in love with Shane, who is in love with Kenny... and the pressure cooker is primed and ready to blow, especially with Shane writing about a family secret that Lex would much rather keep hidden.
Left alone to caretake a gay nude resort closed for the season, a man finds himself confronted by what he can see and what he can't. When everything is visible, when nothing is hidden, it's not just what you see - but what sees you, too.
