Death Proof (2007) Jan 08, 2025

Show notes

Grab your belts and hop on the roof of that car because we're discussing our very first Quentin Tarantino film in 2007's pseudo-slasher/exploitation film Death Proof. Join us as we conclude the Grindhouse double feature that we started last year with Planet Terror.

From the debates about the film's feminist messaging to Tarantino's own disillusionment with the film, we have a lot to say! Plus: dialogue, dialogue and more dialogue, discussing the rest of the fake trailers, why Arlene/Butterfly (Vanessa Ferlito) is Joe's favorite character and one Hell of a final shot.

Into The Dark: New Year, New You (2018) Jan 01, 2025

Show notes

We're #manifesting a happy New Year's with our best influencer friend courtesy of Sophia Takal and Adam Gaines' "New Year, New You" (2018).

The all-female entry of Into The Dark is all about toxic (female) friendships and anticipates a ton of 2022 "Influencer" horror titles, particularly Sissy.

Plus: praise for Carly Chaikin, questions about Suki Waterhouse's career, debates about social media advertising and complaints of "wokeness", and sly commentary (maybe?) by Takal and Gaines about the importance of Black, queer and fat people in white women's stories.

Terrifier 3 (2024) Dec 25, 2024

Show notes

You didn't think we'd abandon you for Christmas, did you? For our final Main Feed episode of 2024, we're tackling Damien Leone's Terrifer 3 (2024) AKA the highest grossing unrated film OF ALL TIME!!!

We break the action into two discussions: Sienna's Final Girl Trauma storyline, then the Art & Vicky stuff. Trace feels the former is too familiar, while Joe is a bit more generous.

Plus: Leone's rebuttal to accusations of misogyny, horror cameos, debate if Art is Vicky's sidekick, the wonky death that doesn't work for us, and how Art has broken into the mainstream.

Micro Queers: Carnage For Christmas (2024) Dec 23, 2024

Show notes

Celebrate the holidays with one final Micro Queers as we check in on prolific Aussie filmmaker Alice Maio Mackay's latest, Carnage for Christmas (2024).

We really enjoy watching Mackay develop as a filmmaker, though the film could benefit from a few less characters and storylines. Still, Carnage for Christmas has a unique killer mask, some great gore, and one badass lead protagonist in podcaster Lola.

Show notes

Grab your gun and watch out for falling planters because we're back in Hagsploitation territory with Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964), the defacto sequel to What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

There's so much to enjoy in this delectable thriller, including gorgeous B/W cinematography, another empathetic lead performance from Bette Davis and a scenery chewing Olivia de Havilland.

Plus: Another epic Bette vs Joan showdown, surprising Oscar noms, double bill recommendations, and why de Havilland should have played more bitches
