    Episode 264: Writer/Poet Blayne Waterloo and IT Miniseries (1990)

    This week we're joined by poet and writer Blayne Waterloo! We chat with them about their poetry and Salon Sinister, their queer horror zine that's currently accepting pitches. We find out their horror history and then revisit the IT Miniseries to see why it terrified them growing up. This episode is a great companion piece to Episode 161 with Bobby Torrez, because we talk a lot here about queerness, otherness and our relationship to King as well as the miniseries. You can follow Blayne on Bluesky and Tiktok. Check out their site where you can get information on their newsletter. And pitch something to Salon Sinister!

    Episode 260: Companion Writer/Director Drew Hancock and The Shining (1980)

    This week we're so excited to chat with writer and director Drew Hancock about his fantastic and twisty horror film Companion. Spoiler alert: we talk about the first big reveal of the film so we're going to include time stamps below. We chat about working with the fantastic cast, the impetus for writing the film, the way everything came together and more before digging into Drew's horror history. We talk about how he got into horror and more before finding out why The Shining terrified him as a kid...and true to the twisty Companion, there's not one but two third act twists in this story. Find out exactly why this was his pick and for those who listened to the first time we covered the show (waaay back on Episode 27)...hold onto your butts... Spoiler time stamps: If you've seen the trailer and marketing, you don't have to skip anything. 5:30 - 8:00 16:30-23:00 At 23:00 we stop talking about Companion and focus on his horror history. So if you don't want anything spoiled, you're free after that. But again, if you've seen the marketing and if you've seen the trailer...that's all we spoil. This is coming from Terry who went in knowing nothing about the film and was blown away by the first reveal. So if you are like me and know nothing about the film...just please go see it and walk in as blind as you can. But if you've seen the trailer/marketing, know that that's all we spoil.
