Legends Podcast #696; Legends of Halloween: Death Becomes Her (1992)

Legends of Halloween gets in touch with its inner girl with a 1992 "satirical surrealistic black comedy fantasy film" - and yes, that's how Wikipedia categorizes it. Directed by Back to the Future and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Helmer Robert Zemeckis, this film defied categorization just as hard as its main characters defy the laws of nature. Meryl Steep and Goldie Hawn star as two image-obsessed rivals for the affection of plastic surgeon-turned-cosmetic mortician Bruce Willis, when they both learn that the secret to eternal youth comes with a price. "Now, a warning?!"  Featuring what were revolutionary computer-generated effects, which won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects, the film went on to become a cult classic, especially in the queer community, and will soon bow on Broadway as a musical.
