An Original Short (screenplay by Tom McIntire)
STARTING FESTIVAL CIRCUIT
Shooting is now finished – complete with free loan of top range film cameras and a Steadicam operator from Lord of the Rings!
Things get hairy when Devlin mixes booze and pills – far too many pills!
Synopsis
Fifty came and went for Devlin, an insecure gay man with thinning hair who spends too much time at the gym at the expense of his relationship with his husband Mazzie. Devlin decides that if one Follycle hair replacement pill is helpful, six will be even better. Ignoring the warning about Follycle and alcohol, Devlin gets in the party spirit and whiskeys down the magic pills before they head out for a night of debauchery.
In the morning, Mazzie awakens to a hirsute, coiffed and delightfully scented Yeti that is a huge turn-on for Mazzie. Devlin enjoys this renewed attention but is horrified at this change in his appearance, and the choice he has to make to keep his husband satisfied.
