SCREAMQUEENZ: RESURRECTION - Can You Survive NYC's Most Notorious Haunted House Sep 19, 2025

Show notes

This episode of ScreamQueenz contains graphic descriptions of disturbing sexual acts. Discretion advised.

*****

Kick off the Halloween season with this Flashback to one of our most popular and shocking Vintage ScreamQueenz episodes when my special guest Kristin Quinn and I visited New York City's most controversial attractions, The VORTEX HAUNTED HOUSE.

No ghosts or goblins lurk inside the Vortex.

Instead, it's a descent into a psychosexual nightmare you must travel through alone.

In pitch darkness.

Into a den of unspeakable perversion.

You are not allowed to speak.

You are not allowed to say no.

You will submit.

And you will scream.

*****

The Vortex Haunted House (which later became the Blackout Haunted House ceased operation in 2019. However, two documentaries are available if you'd like to more.

"Are the straights okay? - ARNOLD (1973) Aug 01, 2025

Show notes

Watch ARNOLD for free on Youtube or buy the gorgeous new Blu-Ray from Vinegar Syndrome.

Say goodbye to ScreamQueenz with ARNOLD, a delightfully bizarre but tragically forgotten horror comedy of 1973.

In the first five minutes of ARNOLD, a gold-digging flight attendant marries a corpse...and that's the least weird thing that happens for the rest of the movie.

It's the kind of movie that makes you ask, "Are the straights ok???"

ARNOLD combines classic Gothic horror elements like a creepy old house filled with secret passages and peekaboo portraits with a kitschy star-studded cast so dripping in 1970's kitsch, they deserve their own episode of the Love Boat.

So squeeze into the gondola with my special guests TRAE DEAN, DOUG SHAPIRO as we take one last ride through the ScreamQueenz Spookhouse, but whatever you do...

DON'T keep your hands to yourself!

****

If you're in New Hampshire, catch Doug Shapiro in a show at the Barnstormers Theater.

ARNOLD was directed by Georg Fenady, written by Jameson Brewer & John Fenton Murray and stars Stella Stevens, Roddy McDowell, Elsa Lanchester, Shani Willlis, Bernard Fox, Farley Granger, Jaime Farr and Victor Buono.

"Sex & Death & Girls & Cars & Gods" - TITANE (2021) Jun 27, 2025

Show notes

This episode, we're taking on a real brain-bender: the French film "Titane"'; a whirlwind of sex, death, cars, and a whole heap of existential questions.

The movie is a tough cookie, but MAYA MURPHY and I here to break it down and make it all a bit simpler for you.

Together we’ll explore the layers of this challenging but rewarding yet deeply f***ed up film. Trust me, there’s more than just the hyperviolence, graphic nudity and car sex surface to uncover.

So buckle up, because we’re about to embark on a journey through the bizarre and beautiful chaos that is "Titane."

Takeaways:

The film 'Titane' explores complex themes of identity, sexuality, and the nature of humanity through its unique narrative.
The lead character's relationship with cars serves as a metaphor for deeper emotional connections and societal taboos around sexuality.
Despite its shocking elements, 'Titane' ultimately reveals a story about acceptance, love, and the struggle for identity in a harsh world.
Understanding 'Titane' requires looking beyond its surface-level provocations to appreciate its artistic commentary on life and human experience.

"Blessed be the sinners..." - NIGHT OF THE DEMONS (1988) May 16, 2025

Show notes

It's campy.

It's raunchy.

It's gory.

It's the beloved 1988 cult classic crowd pleaser, NIGHT OF THE DEMONS!

Ten rambunctious teens throw a Halloween party in a spooky abandoned funeral parlor and end up raising hell.`

In part of the SPECTACULAHHHR, I'm joined by everyone's favorite heterosexual podfaders and Night of the Demons virgins, ALLISON NOWACKI and BRYAN J. POLK.

"There are other kinds of justice in this world...." - DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW (1981) Apr 21, 2025

Show notes

This bonus episode of ScreamQueenz contains a newly public episode of IT CAME FROM THE '70s! originally broadcast on November 3, 2023.

Climb aboard Polyester Airlines for a charter flight back in time to the year 1981 to discuss the truly chilling tale of supernatural retribution, DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW.

But just when they think they've gotten away with it, the wicked quartet encounter dark savage justice when one by one they are terrorized and killed by a figure in a scarecrow costume.

Your copilot for this ill-advised journey into terror is the fabulous TRAE DEAN from "Damn You, Uncle Lewis!"

Directed by Frank De Felitta, written by J.D Feigelson & Butler Hancock, starring Charles Durning, Larry Drake, Jocelyn Brando, Lane Smith, Claude Earl Jones, Robert F. Lyons and Tonya Crowe.
