Plot
The film follows a group of intergalactic homosexual black men from the planet Anus, who discover the presence of female creatures on planet Earth. Using rayguns, they proceed to eliminate females one by one from Earth, eliciting gratitude from the previously oppressed male population.[1] Before leaving the planet, they leave behind a "Gay Ambassador" to educate the Earthlings about their new way of life.

Reception
In the 2019 book It Came from Something Awful, Dale Beran described the film as a "queer-interest Dutch [sic] B movie in the hyper-transgressive tradition of John Waters" that appealed to an audience of "nerdy white boys" who liked the concept of blaxploitation. The film was used in a recruiting campaign by the internet troll group Gay Nigger Association of America in the 2000s.[2]
Cultural references
The film begins in black-and-white and later turns to color, in a way similar to The Wizard of Oz. According to director Morten Lindberg, this was a "dramatic special effect" to illustrate "the world being freed from vicious women".[3]
