    The Wicker Man (1973) feat. Sean Abley

    Remove your clothes, jump through that fire and dance around the maypole because we're finally discussing Robin Hardy's 1973 folk horror classic The Wicker Man! Tagging in for the conversation is writer/director/producer Sean Abley, co-author of the recent book Queer Horror: A Film Guide! Join us as we go all in on the three different versions of this stealth musical(!!!) and find ourselves in deep philosophical waters as we parse through its heady themes.  Plus: phallic symbols galore, jars of foreskin, a cross-dressing Christopher Lee (who has rarely been better), and debating the intent vs. impact when it comes to sacrificing a man for the good of the crops (it's always for the crops, isn't it?).  Reference: Lakshmanan, N. (2023). "Queer subtext in The Wicker Man (1973)". Journal for Cultural Research, 27(3) Questions? Comments? Snark?

    Redux: Ready or Not (2019)

    Lace up your yellow chucks and rip that wedding dress because we are revisiting Radio Silence's Ready or Not (2019). Starring Scream Queen Samara Weaving (in her break-out role), the "Explode The Rich" horror comedy is as good as ever (Trace) or even better than before (Joe).  Plus: Grace as a "Final Girl", a cast of Canadians, speculations about the mythology, and the original ending that would have been completely unacceptable.

    Friday the 13th Part III (1982)

    Blast that Hot Ice, flip that switch on your van's reserve gas tank and put on your 3D glasses because we're talking Steve Miner's Friday the 13th Part III, the only entry in the franchise with the audacity to kill a pregnant character! Join us as we discuss the many, many problems the 3D filming caused for the production before defending maligned characters like Shelly and Chris, the latter of which proves herself to be a very capable final girl in the film's extended climactic chase scene.  Plus: a random Kill Bill connection, an absolute banger of a disco theme, and discussing the differences between "theme park 3D" and "cinematic 3D."

    Thesis (1996)

    Hide your camcorder and don't drop out of film school because we're talking Spanish writer/director Alejandro Amenábar's 1996 feature film debut, Thesis (or Tesis) The snuff film thriller is led by an enterprising College student surrounded by hot men, any of whom might be the balacava-wearing killer seen on screen. And while the reveal isn't exactly a whodunnit, the 2+ hour film is never boring. Plus: Amenábar's queer and Franco fascism influences, 90s technology, and a sexy murder dream Reference: Leora Lev.

    Scream VI (2023)

    Grab your ladder because we're headed to NY to ride the subway with the Core Four in Radio Silence's sequel to the requel, Scream VI (2023). Obviously this is a megasized episode because we have *thoughts.* Thoughts on the killers, thoughts on who survives, thoughts on the best chase sequences and how much (or little) each character gets to do. Plus: an absent Sidney, the return of Skeet Ulrich, the Stab shrine, and all of those homages to Scream 2. Who gives a fuck about movies?! Questions? Comments? Snark?
