Summary

Hey film buds, Art is a place to explore. To dive in and see what makes us tick. It is how we share our experiences, using a universal language of emotions as conveyed by light and sound. Horror is then a place to face one’s fears, or show how fearful the circumstances of one’s life can be. That is why Horror has been a powerful device for marginalized groups to express themselves and share their fears. This holds especially true for the LGBTQIA+ community. Introduction - 00:00* Opening Chat* Queer HorrorThis week we are joined by Friend of the Show, Madelaine Davis, as we jump into our Pride final Pride Celebration with Freaky. Freaky is a genre mashup from Christopher Landon and Michael Kennedy. The film taps into the humor and horror of bodies with a Body-Swap story featuring Vince Vaughn and Kathryn Newton, all while splattering the scene in blood and guts.

Episode Description

Hey film buds,

Art is a place to explore. To dive in and see what makes us tick. It is how we share our experiences, using a universal language of emotions as conveyed by light and sound.

Horror is then a place to face one’s fears, or show how fearful the circumstances of one’s life can be. That is why Horror has been a powerful device for marginalized groups to express themselves and share their fears. This holds especially true for the LGBTQIA+ community.

Opening Chat
Queer Horror

This week we are joined by Friend of the Show, Madelaine Davis, as we jump into our Pride final Pride Celebration with Freaky.

Freaky is a genre mashup from Christopher Landon and Michael Kennedy. The film taps into the humor and horror of bodies with a Body-Swap story featuring Vince Vaughn and Kathryn Newton, all while splattering the scene in blood and guts. We’ll also discuss genre mashups, other Body-Swap roles, and the legacy of Queer Horror.
