Chucky S02E02: 'The Sinners Are Much More Fun'

Horror Queers ·

2022/10/13

We're in disagreement about the second episode of S02: Trace likes how quickly things are advancing, while Joe is frustrating by the lack of Devon & Jake content. All of the "Jennifer Tilly" & Nika stuff, though? Comedy gold! And what to make of Nadine and the arrival of Glen/Glenda? Questions? Comments? Snark?

Basic Instinct (1992) feat. The Queer Quadrant

Horror Queers ·

2022/10/05

Check under the bed for ice picks because we're tackling Paul Verhoeven and Joe Eszterhas' notorious 1992 Erotic Thriller/neo-noir, Basic Instinct.

Horror Queers ·

2022/09/28

Sorry, Jack...Chucky's back! With the second season of Chucky premiering on SyFy next week, we thought we'd take a look back at the franchise that spawned the successful television series. And who better to walk us through memory lane than the creator of the franchise himself: Don Mancini!

Hellraiser (1987) feat. Bryan Christopher

Horror Queers ·

2022/09/14

Come to daddy and solve that puzzle box because we're revelling in the queer, cosmic horror of Clive Barker's Hellraiser (1987)! Tagging in for the discussion is returning guest (and Hellraiser franchise super fan) Bryan Christopher, who we can only assume is a masochist at heart. Join us as we go all in on the queer subtext that Barker injects into his directorial debut before heaping all the praise on Claire Higgins' performance as the complex Julia Cotton. There will be discussions of BDSM and

The Lure (2017) feat. Jessica Scott

Horror Queers ·

2022/09/07

It's time to reel in the catch of the day: Polish coming of age mermaid musical horror film The Lure (2015 or 2017). Along for swim lessons is Jessica Scott, who helps to clarify that Silver's storyline does *not* complicate the film's feminist reading. Plus: the clear trans allegory, our fave musical numbers (and how the film connects to Burlesque), ties to both Disney and Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid and why Mietek SUCKS.

Be wary of seismic activity because we're discussing Ron Underwood's 1990 creature feature, Tremors with the help of author and podcaster Cooper S. Beckett. Let's get this...er...straight right off the top: this is a very queer film! Not only are Val and Earl totally in a relationship, but Rhonda is lesbian-coded. Plus: horrifying deaths, practical Graboid effects, the politics of survivalist couple Burt and Heather, short pole-vaults and what the fuck is homosociality?! References: Nicola Vaughan
