Gay Deceivers, The 

Year: 1969
Country: USA
Director: Bruce Kessler
Starring: Michael Greer, Kevin Coughlin, Larry Casey, Brook Bundy and Jo Ann Harris
Synopsis: Two straight buddies try to avoid the draft and serving in Vietnam by claiming they are gay. When an officer becomes suspicious, they move into a gay neighborhood and a one-bedroom bungalow.
Quick review: The stereotypes of gay men are offensive and the comedy lacking in this 1969 movie about two straight friends who decide they'd rather pretend to be gay than be forced to fight in Vietnam. The two men have little trouble convincing the Army that they are gay and despite their apparent enthusiasm to go to Vietnam, are denied entry. They think they are in the clear until they spot the Army recruiter spying on them. They decide they must give up their girlfriends and play gay if they are to convince the Army they are unfit to serve. So, they move into a gay bungalow with a few over-the-top gay neighbors. Things get complicated with family members and girlfriends begin to wonder if the two men really are gay. It's a silly and campy movie. If you can get past the offensive portrayals that were meant to be humor in the late 1960s when it was still acceptable to make fun of gays, then it has some moderate appeal. But that's a mighty big if.
