Do you think Izzy was actually gay?


I know the members of the team were ragging on him about supposedly being gay, becuase that's just what high school jocks do. But does anyone actually think he was gay?

I personally think not only that Izzy was in fact, gay, but I think he might have had a little fling with Bucky.

If you remember, when Izzy, Bucky and Jake are peeing in the field and Jake is giving Izzy a hard time, Bucky out of the blue kind of gets unexpectedly and suddenly angry, yelling at him and then storming away. He's not yelling at him for making fun of Izzy, but still, he gets visibly angry when Izzy comes under fire.

Secondly, when the Creeper is at the window sniffing, and all the kids are ducked in between the seats, I noticed that Izzy was all up on Bucky, kind of draped over him, as if he was trying to protect him.

And lastly, when Scotty and Izzy were arguing and Scotty grabbed Izzy by the throat, Bucky was the first to try to interject, trying to get Scotty to let Izzy go.

Maybe I'm looking too much into things, but I just couldn't help noticing some small details. I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

I didn't see those but being asked or told it was a gay bar he doesn't answer back.

Just watched it. Very observant. I think you're right.

Well Victor Salva refered to Izzy as his "gay character." So apparently he was in fact gay,

Not really sure about the thing with Bucky. Just seemed like those guys

Izzy
Bucky

were the characters that actually cared about helping one another and sticking together. But you could be right. There's nothing saying you're wrong. So that could be a headcanon for you that the 2 had something going on.

Yes he was gay. Very amazing post.

This film is one of my favorite.

I think he was gay. But now that you've provided your evidence, it makes me want to go back and watch it all over again to see if I see it.

They were all gay. Jocks are pole-lovers.

Wasn't Scotty Gay? I thought they mentioned that Scotty glassed Izzy at a gay bar? Maybe Scotty wasn't ready to come out gay and that somebody he knows came on to him which made him feel very embarrassed and then ended up glassing him.

reply

Actually I just realised that it wasn't Scotty who glassed Izzy. I don't know what made me think that.
