A possessed pianist, a Nessie wannabe, and Nosferatu in the 1970s
Nothing screams second-tier 70s like this triple feature I watched as I continue to dig through all the DVDs left in my possession after my brother’s passing last summer. And speaking of possession… THE MEPHISTO WALTZ (1971) Alan Alda stars … Continue reading

Does Nash have the nads?
And if he doesn’t, who are we to judge? Alternating between a stream of hot man bods and Corey Feldman in drag, the trailer for Corbin Nash intrigued me…and the reviews on IMDb accusing it of homophobia and transphobia sold … Continue reading
A triple dose of 80s schlock treatment…
I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel of 80s flicks in my collection (aka: in existence), so this trio is the crap on tap this time around. SHOCK TREATMENT (1981) Director Jim Sharman returns, Richard O’Brien returns, Patricia Quinn returns…Charles … Continue reading

Getting inside these twins and realizing they’re fraternal, not identical
Almost a decade ago, the brutal French home invasion film Inside blew away horror fans (hard to believe the directors went on to make the lame Texas Chainsaw prequel Leatherface). An American remake was released for reasons unknown, especially considering … Continue reading
Despite the calendar date, it’s always Halloween to me
But my choice of double feature made this Independence Day a disappointing Halloween…that was slightly saved by some double feature daddy bear action. THE HOUSES OCTOBER BUILT 2 (2017) The Blu-ray of the first film, which I blind bought when … Continue reading
Flesh eaters vs. strong gay and lesbian characters
It’s not every day that we get fully realized queer characters in horror films, so it was a refreshing change of pace to watch two films in one weekend that each offered one—a gay guy and a lesbian—along with a … Continue reading
Artsploitation Films brings us two horror anthologies with some gay and a lot of EEK!
Well, there definitely are no safe spaces in these two anthologies. Or safe words for that matter. Sex juices and blood flow, and the results will make you squirm and scream (with sympathy pains). German Angst gives us only 3 … Continue reading
Going through aversion therapy with gay horror author Aaron Eischeid
Through words and illustrations, Aaron Eischeid’s “Aversion: A Zine of Therapeutic Vignettes” is speculative fiction that explores mind and body, sex and soul, religion and politics, young gay awakenings, gay love, and the horror of conversion therapy. Along with a … Continue reading
