Dreamcatcher (2003)

Horror Queers ·

2026/07/22

Watch out for "ister gay" (oof), take some Gas-X and bite our bags because we're talking Lawrence Kasdan's baffling 2003 adaptation of Stephen King's equally baffling novel Dreamcatcher. Join us as we go all in on the farty farty aliens populating this hilarious misfire that often feels like a bad Kevin Smith script. It's a film filled with characters who get a single defining trait (if they're lucky) played by respectable actors who are here for the paycheck (looking at you, Morgan Freeman). Plus:

Crimes of Passion (1984)

Horror Queers ·

2026/07/15

Huff those poppers and wield that bladed stake vibrator thing you stupid douchebag, because we're talking our very first Ken Russell film in his messy-but-fascinating erotic thriller Crimes of Passion (1984)! Join us as we do a deep dive into what Joe describes as a John Waters fever dream. It's a film that boasts fantastic performances from Kathleen Turner and Anthony Perkins (in a role we would deem "brave" for the actor), who electrify the screen when its not focused on the torturous mundane

The Howling (1981)

2026/07/08

Make note of that smiley face sticker and snag that conveniently-placed jar of acid because we're talking Joe Dante's stealth werewolf classic The Howling (1981)! Join us as we discuss the film's deviations from its source material before doing a deep dive into this very tongue-in-cheek, self-aware horror film. It honestly feels like a precursor to Scream, in many ways! Plus: Roger Corman (again!) those incredible special effects, differentiating "color movies" from "movies in color," and why queer

Independence Day (1996)

Horror Queers ·

2026/07/01

Today, we celebrate our Independence Day...courtesy of gay German director Roland Emmerich. As the summer blockbuster celebrates its 30th anniversary, we're looking back on an alien disaster film that scared young Trace (thanks to that alien autopsy scene) and turned Will Smith into a star. Plus: the death that upsets the most; bemoaning Vivica A. Fox's career; pondering what could have been with the casting; why Smith's bravado and the film's patriotism doesn't always work for Joe; and plenty of

Homicidal (1961)

Grab your favorite surgical knife and call your mobile knife sharpener because we're discussing our very first William Castle film in his 1961 Psycho homage (or rip-off...you decide) Homicidal! Join us as we discuss the origins of William Castle, aka "The Gimmick Guy", before diving into a film that has a fantastic first and last 15 minutes, but also a middle hour filled with obscene amounts of exposition. And don't forget about the Fright Break! Plus: Alyssa Edwards chatter, humans drinking bowls

Micro Queers: Tickled (2016)

2026/06/22

Ignore that threatening email from Jane O'Brien media because we are discussing queer director David Farrier's thriller-y documentary, Tickled (2016). If you haven't seen it, watch the doc first because you won't believe where this exposé of "competitive tickling videos" goes and we are spoiling ALL of the reveals. Plus: Joe's discomfort with the Richard Ivey segment, pondering the extent of the empire, and debate about the ending Questions? Comments? Snark? Connect with the boys on BlueSky,

Saltburn (2023)

2026/06/17

Slurp up that cummy bath water because we are talking about writer/director Emerald Fennell's divisive satirical thriller Saltburn (2023).From its sublime cast to its gorgeous visual aesthetic, there's a lot to love here. But does Fennell push her class critique hard enough and are these characters too despicable? Plus: "pug faced" (hung) king Barry Keoghan; Trace's hatred of Farleigh; wanting more Rosamund Pike; and debating why the film is so polarizing. Questions? Comments? Snark? Connect with

Get ready to tell us where you like it as we head to Medieval Times because we're discussing Ben Stiller's Jim Carrey-starring black comedy The Cable Guy (1996) for its 30th anniversary! Tagging in for the conversation are Patrick Hamilton and Gena Radcliffe of the Kill By Kill Podcast.Join us as we go all in on the oddly prescient (and highly media literate) film made famous by Jim Carrey's $20 million paycheck.

Queen of the Damned (2002)

Horror Queers ·

2026/06/03

Practice your Egyptian accent and bare that midriff because we are talking the troubled "adaptation" of Anne Rice's Queen of the Damned (2002).Directed by Australian Michael Rymer, this one was doomed by the suits before it was even greenlit (which happened AFTER all of the songs were written by Korn frontman Jonathan Davis). It's a bit of a clusterfuck. Plus: praising everything Aaliyah (RIP); critiquing everything Stuart Townsend (aside from his abs and leather pants); a soft queer reading of

Brush up on your Shakespeare and protect those poodles because we're covering our very first Vincent Price film in Douglas Hickox's horror comedy Theater of Blood (1973), a personal favorite of both Price and Diana Rigg.Join us as we go all in on this somewhat episodic (but also educational!) proto-slasher, wondering if we're supposed to know that's Diana Rigg in hippie drag, and cackling at some of these murder set pieces.

We sat down to interview Ginger Snaps director John Fawcett and stars Katherine Isabelle and Emily Perkins in celebration of the film's 25th anniversary and recent 4K release from Lionsgate. Up for discussion: the enduring appeal of the film, why it speaks to queer audiences, how the sequels came to be, and the possibility of a television show (Ginger Snaps: Bailey Downs anyone?)
