11 Best New Gay Movies on Netflix Streaming: Boys, Out to Kill, Campaign of Hate and More

Mischa Kamp’s coming-of-age Dutch film, Boys, is quickly becoming a gay-film classic.

Here, our recurring round up the newest and best gay movies to hit Netflix instant streaming in the last month. Because it’s always steered me in the right direction in the past, I’ve narrowed down the selections according to Rotten Tomatoes scores, nixing ones that dropped below 50 percent.

There are some pretty solid options this month, like the intriguing documentary Before You Know It, which follows three gay gents as they navigate life post-60; Mischa Kamp’s coming-of-ager Boys is quickly on its way to becoming a modern gay-film classic; and porn star-turned-auteur Michael Lucas’s moving exposé Campaign of Hate concerns queer folks living in anti-gay Russia.
