What a Waste - Hereditary (2018)

First off: Dex is extremely apologetic that this episode was so delayed, and they have no excuse but that the movie is scary and editing is overwhelming sometimes. Now, for our delayed Halloween special: Hereditary, the debut project from Ari Aster. A family drama disguised as a horror movie that is as emotionally devastating as it is dreadful. Hang on to your heads for this one. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

Nine Women, Twelve's Better - Practical Magic (1998)

Ah, Halloween! Days of candles, candy, cauldrons, and unholy necromancy to try and cover up an accidental murder. Today, we’re covering 1998’s Practical Magic, the story of two sisters gripped by a generational curse that dooms any man they love. Things get messy, but that’s to be expected when combining romance, magic, and a hint of belladonna.  Dex and Summer are getting in to the weeds on magic, family, and breaking old curses with a little help from your coven. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Dentata - Teeth (2007)

Content Warning: Rape/ sexual assault, religious trauma, purity culture, castration, explicit discussion of sexual topics. It's crazy what purity culture (and some genetic mutation) does to a mf. In this episode, Dex and Summer discuss the 2007 cult horror Teeth, about a high school girl who realizes she has a terrifying (but pretty helpful) adaptation. Let's explore some genital horror and analyze this narrative as a coming of age story, a rape revenge story, and a modern interpretation of a classic Greek myth. We'll share our thoughts on purity culture and agency and why this terrible movie is so compelling to a generation of people who grew up in a sex-negative age. Get ready to get up close and personal with some teeth. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

Try To Keep Up - The Lost Boys (1987)

Welcome to the murder capital of the world: Santa Carla, California, home of a gang of beautiful gay punk vampires and their amazing motorcycle races. We're talking about THE LOST BOYS! It's a Peter Pan story, but with Joel Schumacher's inimitable sense of 80's style and Kiefer Sutherland's gorgeous blond mullet — what more could we ask for? Drag king, artist, and filmmaker Mik Jager joins as our first guest to talk with Dex and Summer about the lightning-in-a-bottle storytelling of THE LOST BOYS. We discuss the gay romance and interpersonal tension of the film, our personal relationships to it, and the subversive power of queer storytelling.
