Horror Queers

It's almost the end of the year and we're somehow still releasing episodes, but this one is a fun one for all of you! After a brief reflection on the previous year, we're gifting listeners with some delightful bloopers to get everyone in the holiday spirit. There will be flubs. There will be cursing. There will be fun! So kick back and get ready to laugh with one of our most casual episodes to date!

In honor of the 25th anniversary of Kevin Williamson and Wes Craven’s genre-defining 90s classic, we’re revisiting Scream (1996). Unlike our former Main Feed and Patreon Audio Commentary episodes, though, this is a list of our 25+ favorite moments, lines of dialogue, characters and actors, shots, music cues and everything else. It may not be definitive or scientific, but it sure is a lot of fun!

Happy holidays, Bats! We’re heading back to Gotham City to discuss Batman Kills…wait…no…Batman Cameos…wait…still not right…Batman Returns! Joining us for the conversation is Alex Hall, a film writer who specializes in queer & lesbian horror cinema!

Join us as we laud the queer-coding of Catwoman and the Penguin before trying to figure out just how this dark, campy and horny “family” movie got made (Tim Burton’s expert negotiation skills and bringing on the Heathers screenwriter probably has something to do with it).

Plus, erogenous zones blown sky high, resurrection via pussy, a nose-biting castration, Poodle Lady appreciation, a lesson in vichyssoise, and just how epic and amazing is Danny Elfman’s score? Mee-OW.

In this special Frightgown exclusive from June 2021, Joe interviews the godfather of queer horror, Professor Harry M. Benshoff, about his definitive text, Monsters in the Closet, as well as why queer horror has exploded in recent years, iconic films from each decade and his favorite under the radar queer horror text (hint: it's an early pre-cursor to Saw?!)

FYI: The interview was done on Zoom so the audio isn't great. If you want to see the video, hit up our YouTube channel.

Pack your parka and fine-tune your hacker skills because we're heading to Sweden to discuss David Fincher's 2011 adaptation of Stieg Larsson's global phenomenon of a novel: The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo!

Join us as we offer all the praise to Rooney Mara, who really had the deck stacked against her when it came to taking on the role of Lisbeth Salander (she's great in this film) before diving into the complicated mystery at the center of the film and question Daniel Craig's penchant for queer-coded torture scenes.

Plus, Joe's hilarious theater-going anecdotes, a James Bond-ish opening credits sequence, Trace's complete and total lack of awareness of NIN (and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and two very candid (and unedited!) conversations about rape revenge.

We're back with another minisode on Don Mancini's new series, Chucky (2021)! In our spoiler-filled discussion of the eighth episode (aka the season finale), we discuss Kyle's final scene and Jake's retribution, but lament Tiffany's franchise arc before giving a final grade to the season. See y'all next year for season 2!

Dress in your best antichrist drag because we’re talking about the absolutely wild (and frequently nonsensical) Fear No Evil (1981). Along for the ride are Dan and Conrad from Movie Oubliette, making this a truly international podcast experience across four countries and three continents. C/W: the dog dies.

Up for debate: is this film homophobic or is it a condemnation of the damaging effects of religion? Is it a Christmas or an Easter movie? Is director Frank LaLoggia using the film to work out some personal issues? And can we find something nice to say about Kathleen Rowe McAllen’s bee stung lips and atrocious acting?

Plus: bloody baptisms, satin Grease jackets, gun vaginas, death by dodgeball, animal cruelty, Gynecomastia and Dendrophilia, and many, MANY male asses, including one Trace deems so perfect, you could hold a tea party on it. 

Oh, and we end things with a quick round of Mooblie Awards!
