Short film festival Tropfest has found itself embroiled in controversy after a comedy about gay sex was named best film on Sunday night.

Upset film fans took to Twitter and Facebook to express their disappointment at the judges’ decision to give Bamboozled the top award, while former NRL star Ian Roberts said the film was degrading and homophobic.

Agree, not sure it should have won, but don't really think it deserves the controversy

I have to say, I found it "not homophobic" and "rather funny." Homophobic maybe from the ex-girlfriend's perspective, thinking it would be shameful for her ex to wake up with a guy, but her viewpoint fuels the punchline -- the total bizarre-ness of somebody who had a rumor spread about her deciding to seek revenge by going that far, to put someone in a position to re-think his entire sexual identity.
