The Fly (1986) - Decay, Illness, and the Horror of Having a Body
A film where love, science, and ego collide in a tragic metamorphosis of flesh and identity. In this episode, we take a more light-hearted turn (if you can call it that) into a movie that is fun, gross, and thought-provoking. (Content warnings: body horror, gross stuff, AIDS, death, reproductive rights.) References: Horror Queers Podcast "The Fly (1986) feat Meagan Navarro”. August 18, 2021.

Lamb (2015) - Innocence, Control, and the Need to Be Loved
A slow-burning exploration of power, dependence, and the blurred line between nurturing and possession. In this episode, host Charlotte picks a fight with an indie movie that only grossed $30,000. Tangents include What Would Tom Hanks Do?, Rocky Mountain geography, and Canadian teen dramas. (Content warnings: child sexual abuse, grooming, pedophiles, and related topics.)
