Entertainment Reviews:
What is not entirely clear is what Hate Crime adds to the equation that hasn't been done before.
Variety
One day, a truly original screenplay will be written in which churchgoing, beer-drinking Southerners will be portrayed as something other than evil hypocrites.
New Times
Rating: 2.5/4 --
The portrait of the Boyds is painted by Tommy Stovall, the film's writer and director, with such broad and venomous strokes that if the gay characters had been portrayed in the same way, the film would rightly be seen as bigoted.

Chicago Sun-Times
Call it too much fuel to the fire in a misguided effort to bring home the tragedy of gay hate crimes.

Film Journal International
even if [it] finds an audience receptive to all the shock and torment, this repetitive series of fascistic taunts and visceral outrages becomes, in the absence of decent characterisation and an interesting story, surprisingly unengaging.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
An intelligent, well-acted, tense drama that is challenging in its moral complexity.

Product Description:
Director Tommy Stovall's provocative indie thriller HATE CRIME raises complex moral questions about free speech, intolerance, and vengeance through the harrowing story of a gay man (Seth Peterson) whose lover is found beaten to death in a horrible case of gay-bashing instigated by the hateful rhetoric of a fundamentalist Christian preacher (Bruce Davison, LONGTIME COMPANION).
