    20. Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland (1989)

    🥛🍨 MA! I’M GOIN’ TO CAMP!That’s right, sweaty. CryBaby and Bowie return to campy fun time with Sleepaway Camp 3: Teenage Wasteland—a back-to-back sequel that’s equal parts sleazy, problematic, and… surprisingly fun?This episode our hosts dig into the Camp New Horizons rebrand, Angela Baker’s deeply unserious wig-and-sunglasses disguise, and the revenge-hungry cop hot on her trail. Along the way, they unpack the film’s messy “rich kids vs. underprivileged kids” experiment, calling out its blatant racism, classism, and nonstop “yikes” moments.

    🔥🥥  Welcome to Sleaze City, Baybee! This Friday the the 13th CryBaby and Bowie return to the Sleepaway Camp franchise with Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (1988), trading the original’s shock for  sleazier, meta-leaning chaos. In this episode they discuss the sequel’s (un)intentional campiness, the puritanical Reagan-era vibe, and the choices made around Angela’s trans identity, while revisiting the film’s most ridiculous kills, quotable one-liners, and chaotic summer camp energy. Love the show?

    16. I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025)

    🎣 It’s another blood-soaked Fourth of July on Whorror Icon! This week, Crybaby and Richard dive into the 2025 reboot of I Know What You Did Last Summer, where Gen Z meets generational trauma in the most gentrified version of Southport yet.They’re unpacking everything from legacy characters and coastal elitism to the film’s commentary on class, accountability, and whether or not this was just one big slab of fan service. Plus: returning icons, controversial killer reveals, and some heated takes on who this movie is really for. Is it a clever update or just a hot mess with an even hotter cast? Whichever it is—we’re watching, judging, and thirsting. Love the show? Send CryBaby a sexy text.Want the visuals?

    15. I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006)

    Buckle up, babes—because this week, Crybaby and Richard are taking on the cinematic disaster that is I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer.It’s got shaky camera work, shallow mall-rejects instead of characters, and enough early 2000s cringe to give your Motorola Razr a panic attack. From bad editing to worse acting, this film is a prime example of everything wrong with post-Scream horror—overstyled, underwritten, and relying solely on a cast of bland blonde babes. But even in the chaos, we find the gay. Crybaby draws some surprisingly poignant parallels between the film’s themes of secrecy, shame, and generational fear and the lingering cultural trauma of the AIDS crisis—because if we’re going to suffer, we’re gonna make it mean something. Meanwhile, Richard spirals into full existential dread trying to remember a single character's name.It’s a wild ride through underwhelming kills, stupid fish hook lore, and the ghost of better scripts that never came to be. Come for the abysmal teen terror, stay for the queer analysis and unhinged commentary. This one’s a mess—but at least it’s our mess.Love the show? Send CryBaby a sexy text.Want the visuals?

    14. I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998)

    Our Petty Mayonnaise hook-handed diva is back and taking the murder spree on vacation, baby!This week on Whorror Icon, Crybaby and Richard dive into the messy, extra-convoluted sequel I Still Know What You Did Last Summer—aka the one where a suspicious-ass radio contest sends our trauma-riddled Final Girl on a KILLER vacation to the Bahamas.We’re talking Brandy’s scream queen supremacy, suspiciously sexy landscaping (with a few tragic misses), and our own deeply queer-coded headcanons. Come for the hot, sexy teens and blood-soaked bedsheets—stay for the drama, the chaos, and Richard’s slow, painful realization that absolutely none of this makes sense.It’s fun, it’s flawed, it’s wetter than a hurricane in July—and we’re breaking it all down one ridiculous plot twist at a time.Love the show?

We’re talking messy queer subtext, hot girl research sessions, and why Helen Shivers absolutely deserved better.Is it a cautionary tale? A metaphor for queer shame? An elaborate PSA about not hitting people with your car? CryBaby and Richard try their best to answer these questions, and MORE! So come on in…the water’s fine. Love the show?
