Gloom Gals Gloom Gals

Welcome back to Gloom Gals! Sorry for the posting delay--we've decided to change to a biweekly posting schedule since our horror hoe decided to go back to school. We're also adjusting to a new mic, so please excuse the occasional rustling! This week, we're talking about a cultural cornerstone: Carrie, another Stephen King classic. We talk about the disappearance of tampon dispensers in public restrooms, Kate blows Amoreena's mind with some biblical knowledge, and Amoreena has to do a quick Google search to determine if Carrie is a grown-up Matilda or if Matilda is just Carrie for kids.

Carrie, directed by Brian de Palma, 1976.

Welcome back to Gloom Gals! We've missed you all since season 1, but we are ready to roll with our start to season 2. We've decided that we're theme girls now, so this season we're focusing on Horror Classics! We talk about what a classic means to us, Amoreena tries to clarify confusing similar titles, and Kate giggles over the Skeleton who is credited as playing himself.

Happy end of 2021! As promised, here's the prettier audio for our season finale.

We finally get to a zombie movie, Amoreena goes a little bit ACAB, and Kate talks about the switch in her head that flips off when it comes to zombie gore. We’ll see you all again in 2022 (and with an even better mic)!

Merry Christmas, ghouls and gals! We're hitting one of the very first slashers this week with Black Christmas. It's a disturbing classic, and we can't wait to hear what you think! We admit to a problematic favorite character, Amoreena has a full-blown crisis over how telephones work, and Kate laments the fact that this is the first Christmas movie that she's seen in 2021.
