Horror Queers

Watch out for that green electricity flying up your urine stream because we're discussing Brian Trenchard-Smith's 1997 sequel Leprechaun 4: In Space. Beaming up for this ridiculous venture are Mike and Bobby of the People Under the Scares podcast!

Join us as we travel to planet Ithicon to witness the Leprechaun's new penisburster skill before trying to figure out just what the fuck is going on in this direct-to-video sequel. Plus: metal-head cyborg drag queens (yes, really), PlayStation 1-level CGI, gratuitous space nudity and many, many tangents.

Check the payload and stay on mission because we're flying into the sun with Alex Garland and Danny Boyle's Sunshine (2007).

Strap in because not only does Joe have a surprising queer read, but we're fully defending the film's controversial Pinbacker/"slasher" last act.

Plus: a deep bench of international actors, Boyle's incredible visuals, a three year production development, and speculation about why this film was such a flop.

Swallow that fish and peel the skin off your legs because we're discussing Lisa Brühlmann's aquatic coming-of-age film Blue My Mind (2017)! Tagging in for the conversation are Rachel and Ariel of The More Deadly Podcast!

Join us as we dive in (ha ha) to this tale (ha ha) of a young girl who starts turning into a mermaid after getting her first period. From angsty teen antics (CW: sexual assault, self-harm) to questionable dietary changes, Blue My Mind is a fascinating journey into the mind of the teenage girl.

Plus: questioning some countries' ages of consent, one strict foreplay mantra, Joe's history as an arsonist(????) and the transgressive nature of on-screen menstrual blood.

Raid the closet for tear-away suits and make a "real" martini because we're talking about Paul Feig's suburban noir, A Simple Favor (2018).

Joining us is Dread Central writer and We Really Like Her co-host Emily Gagne, who needed a second screening of the film to warm to its bisexual charms.

Up for discussion: "pretty" girls Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick, shockingly casual incest, Henry Golding's career as a side piece, why this film qualifies as an Erotic Thriller, and *lots* of tangents about women-centric performances and films, including Letterboxd's High Risers, Cruel Intentions, and Legally Blonde.

Grab your blonde wig, sunglasses and straight razor because we're kicking off a month of erotic thrillers with the grandaddy of them all: Brian De Palma's 1980 masterpiece Dressed to Kill! Joining us for the conversation is Austin-based queer film historian Elizabeth Purchell!

Join us as we trace the film's journey from the mind of De Palma to a protested and picketed controversy among feminists and members of the queer community. It's a film that's all style and some substance, but we'd be remiss if we didn't tackle the film's more divisive aspects.

Plus: "beaver shots," plenty of gay porn discussions, racist stereotypes, and the film's connections to Cruising.
