NETFLIX AND CHILLS: struggling to get through two originals

Back to the middle of the 00s for a triple feature of killers and creatures

It’s two more films for the homo horror movies page, and I found this queer double feature much more satisfying than the one I watched and posted about a week ago. CUTIES (2020) This low budget indie directed by Joshua … Continue reading
