Is there something in the water? We're back with another queer horror indie tackling conversion/aversion therapy. This time it's writer/director Quinn Armstrong's trilogy opener, The Exorcism of Saint Patrick (2024). C/W: suicide

This one is doing its own thing, from great gore effects to beautiful exterior shots and even a fat gay teen main character (yay diverse representation!)

To tie into Tim Burton's new sequel, we're revisiting the 1988 classic Beetlejuice.

Trace has a funny backstory with the film, while Joe barely has a connection to it. We both agree, however, that the film is a creative triumph, with amazing characters and boundless background details that flesh out the world.

Plus: multiple queer elements, the film's obsession with suicide, the animated cartoon and the musical adaptation, and why Delia is *the* best character.

Reference: Tori Williams. "No One Sees Me: Queerness Throughout Beetlejuice." Gayly Dreadful.

Repress that gay demon and avert the aversion therapy because we're discussing Ganymede (2024), a queer thriller that we quite liked!

When a small town wrestling star develops a crush on an openly gay classmate, all Hell breaks loose when he begins seeing visions of a demonic ganymede.

Featuring affecting lead performances from Pablo Castelblanco and Jordan Doww and over-the-top performances from David Koechner and Robin Lively (Teen Witch), Ganymede is a bit all over the place, but we think the pros outweigh the cons.

CW: Suicide, self-harm.

Joe sits down to chat with Ariel Powers-Schaub about her new book, Millennial Nasties, which looks at a particular subgenre of horror from 2000-2010s. They discuss what constitutes a "Millennial Nasty," why the term Torture Porn should be retired, and how the 40+ titles in her book are connected by "Six Degrees of Saw-peration."

Hop out of that toilet and repair that slingshot because we're headed to the cozy little town of Grover's Bend, Kansas to meet up with some Krites in Stephen Herek's 1986 horror comedy Critters (can you believe it's Joe's first time???).

Join us as we go deep into the production of this film that's absolutely not a ripoff of Gremlins (seriously!) before diving into the hilarious antics of the titular toothy furballs and the adventures of the Brown family.

Plus: a discussion of "toned films," not-so-bratty-Brad (Scott Grimes), bowling alley shenanigans and one absolutely hilarious use of subtitles.

Pack your bags and grab that promise ring because we're discussing Danishka Esterhazy's (Slumber Party Massacre '21) Tubi Original slasher Killer Body Count!

This one is a bit of a mixed bag, as there are several great moments sprinkled throughout its unnecessarily long 2-hour runtime, but the gore is good and the cast is game, so you could do a lot worse on a Friday night!
