Entertainment Reviews:
Stephen Dunn has in fact crafted an instant classic of queer cinema that takes the coming-of-age and coming-out tale, rejuvenates it and delivers a film that unapologetically puts the elephant in the room in its very title.

Rating: 3/4 --
One way to tell a promising director is by the acting in his or her film, and the performances in "Closet Monster" are solid all the way around, no matter how small the role.

San Francisco Chronicle
As in MYSTERIOUS SKIN or BOYHOOD, this coming-of-age story can feel entrancing, particularly with its surreal touches....Connor Jessup wonderfully inhabits the teenage Oscar...
New York Times
[An] absolutely stunning queer coming-of-age story.

Closet Monster is a little obvious with its symbolism... However, [Stephen] Dunn stylistically pulls off the movie's themes beautifully.

A film school thesis project that somehow found its way into general release.

Closet Monster is certainly worth a watch due to its originality, quirkiness and honesty, none of which ever seem forced.

A closeted Newfoundland teen named Oscar (Connor Jessup) dreams of becoming a special-effects makeup artist, and is terrified of his macho father finding out the truth about his sexuality. When he falls for Wilder (Aliocha Schneider), a handsome, worldly co-worker at the hardware store, he is forced to confront his fears. Written and directed by Stephen Dunn, CLOSET MONSTER made its world premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival.
