Horror Queers

Slurp up that cummy bath water because we are talking about writer/director Emerald Fennell's divisive satirical thriller Saltburn (2023).

From its sublime cast to its gorgeous visual aesthetic, there's a lot to love here. But does Fennell push her class critique hard enough and are these characters too despicable?

Plus: "pug faced" (hung) king Barry Keoghan; Trace's hatred of Farleigh; wanting more Rosamund Pike; and debating why the film is so polarizing.

Get ready to tell us where you like it as we head to Medieval Times because we're discussing Ben Stiller's Jim Carrey-starring black comedy The Cable Guy (1996) for its 30th anniversary! Tagging in for the conversation are Patrick Hamilton and Gena Radcliffe of the Kill By Kill Podcast.

Join us as we go all in on the oddly prescient (and highly media literate) film made famous by Jim Carrey's $20 million paycheck. From Carrey's incredibly creepy performance to a nightmare sequence straight out of A Nightmare on Elm Street, there are a lot more horror (and homoerotic) undertones to this film than you might expect!

Plus, that iconic karaoke sequence, sexy Jack Black and comparisons to Single White Female, So I Married an Axe Murderer and Scream.

Practice your Egyptian accent and bare that midriff because we are talking the troubled "adaptation" of Anne Rice's Queen of the Damned (2002).

Directed by Australian Michael Rymer, this one was doomed by the suits before it was even greenlit (which happened AFTER all of the songs were written by Korn frontman Jonathan Davis). It's a bit of a clusterfuck.

Plus: praising everything Aaliyah (RIP); critiquing everything Stuart Townsend (aside from his abs and leather pants); a soft queer reading of Marius; and bemoaning boring protagonist/audience surrogate JESSE.
