Each week, queer hosts Joe Lipsett and Trace Thurman discuss a horror film with LGBTQ+ themes, a high camp quotient or both.
Black leather or green unitard? Whatever your costume of choice, we're wearing it in celebration of the 30th anniversary of Joel Schumacher's Batman Forever (1995).Along for the ride are returning champions Kill By Kill, who help us to unpack all of the neon question marks we have about the film, including Two Face's slim backstory, the lack of Sugar and Spice, and whatever the hell Chris O'Donnell is doing.Plus: high praise for Carrey, plugs for The Cable Guy, horny Dr. Chase, and the easiest Trolley Problem in cinematic history!Questions?

We're celebrating the 10th anniversary of queer director Ted Geoghegan's feature debut, We Are Still Here (2015).This is a quiet indie film with some serious star power (Barbara Crampton, Larry Fessenden, Monte Markham, and Lisa Marie?!), as well as great FX. But a decade later, it's the quiet depiction of grief that we appreciate a great deal more.Questions? Comments? Snark?

Prep your canoes and don't anger the locals because we're discussing John Boorman's (in)famous 1972 thriller Deliverance and all the baggage that comes with it.Join us as we take a look at a film whose reputation precedes it, from its male rape scene to its portrayal of rural mountain folk. There's plenty to unpack here!Plus: Burt Reynolds' lamb bone, squealing pigs, raping landscapes, and the poignancy of watching a grown man weep.Reference: Isabel Machado. “Revisiting Deliverance: The Sunbelt South, the 1970s Masculinity Crisis, and The Emergence of the Redneck Nightmare Genre.” Center for the Study of Southern CultureQuestions?
