Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds

Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds is a 2006 American sex comedy film directed by Phillip J. Bartell. It is the sequel to Eating Out (2004) and the second installment in the franchise. Q. Allan Brocka, who wrote and directed the first film, returned to co-write the screenplay alongside Bartell. The film stars Jim Verraros, Emily Brooke Hands, Rebekah Kochan, Brett Chukerman, Marco Dapper, and Mink Stole. Verraros, Hands, and Kochan reprise their roles from the first film as Kyle, Gwen, and Tiffani, while Chukerman replaces Ryan Carnes as Marc. Dapper portrays nude art model Troy, while Stole plays Kyle's mother Helen. Following the first film, Kyle and Marc break up, with both setting their sights on Troy, a nude art model questioning his sexuality. In an attempt to approach him, Kyle pretends to be an ex-gay man and attends meetings at a support group with Troy; conversely, Marc pursues Troy by being his out gay self.

Production on the movie began quickly after the first Eating Out proved to be a financial success. Due to scheduling conflicts, Brocka was unable to return as director, handing the duties to Bartell. The first draft of the screenplay was written by Bartell in January 2006, while succeeding ones were co-written by him and Brock. The ex-gay movement's inclusion in the film stemmed from both writers: Bartell wished to include political themes—believing that comedy can shift one's viewpoint—while Brocka had encounters with such organizations trying to convert him. As Carnes was unavailable, Chukerman, who had previously worked with Bartell, was cast as Marc. The casting of roles such as Troy and Octavio—played by Adrián Quiñonez—proved challenging, particularly due to the sex scenes and nudity involved. Eating Out 2 took 10 days to film in late May.

Following its premiere at Outfest on July 13, Eating Out 2 received a limited release in cinemas in the United States on November 24. It was released on DVD on May 29, 2007. The film's quality, plot, and humor received mixed reactions; its political themes and subplot involving the ex-gay group were praised. Response to the performances was mixed, although Stole was generally praised. Eating Out 2 received attention for the sexualization of its male cast members, with significant attention afforded to Dapper's sex appeal.
