2024/10/30

Spoon that icing out of the can and get ready for a lot of time jumps because "it" is awake in Robert Zemeckis' Death Becomes Her (1992). It's a smorgasbord of bitchery and high fashion in this delectable black comedy.Join us as we marvel at the Oscar-winning special effects that are anything but "cheap" in this hilarious film starring two of Hollywood's greatest actresses (Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn) and a scene-stealing Bruce Willis.

Horror Queers ·

2024/10/25

Beware of dark web games and toxic workplaces because we're checking out Michelle Iannantuono's Livescreamers (2023). There's a lot to like about this, from gaming Easter Eggs to big topic issues in gaming and online environments.

Micro Queers: Inherit The Witch (2024)

Horror Queers ·

2024/10/07

Pop in that 1984 videocassette because we're checking out writer/director Cradeaux Alexander's Inherit The Witch (2024). Sadly we're not recommending this one. Despite a few fun performances and an unexpected ending, the feuding family film is overly plotted, feels drawn out, and features some pretty dodgy acting. It's just not for us. Questions? Comments?

It's a 'Joe pick' for the second week of our Gay Icons & Anniversaries theme as the boys discuss Jonathan Glazer's modern classic Birth (2004).Starring Nicole Kidman as a woman grieving her dead husband, Birth was a lightning rod for controversy, but it's so much more than its bathtub scene and reincarnation plot.
