Practice your Egyptian accent and bare that midriff because we are talking the troubled "adaptation" of Anne Rice's Queen of the Damned (2002).

Directed by Australian Michael Rymer, this one was doomed by the suits before it was even greenlit (which happened AFTER all of the songs were written by Korn frontman Jonathan Davis). It's a bit of a clusterfuck.

Plus: praising everything Aaliyah (RIP); critiquing everything Stuart Townsend (aside from his abs and leather pants); a soft queer reading of Marius; and bemoaning boring protagonist/audience surrogate JESSE.

Brush up on your Shakespeare and protect those poodles because we're covering our very first Vincent Price film in Douglas Hickox's horror comedy Theater of Blood (1973), a personal favorite of both Price and Diana Rigg.

Join us as we go all in on this somewhat episodic (but also educational!) proto-slasher, wondering if we're supposed to know that's Diana Rigg in hippie drag, and cackling at some of these murder set pieces.

Plus, "Handsy Dickman," narcissistic gravestones, antisemitic stage makeup, and the ultimate debate: is it theatER or theatRE?

C/W: Attempted suicide, off-screen dog murder.

We sat down to interview Ginger Snaps director John Fawcett and stars Katherine Isabelle and Emily Perkins in celebration of the film's 25th anniversary and recent 4K release from Lionsgate. 

Up for discussion: the enduring appeal of the film, why it speaks to queer audiences, how the sequels came to be, and the possibility of a television show (Ginger Snaps: Bailey Downs anyone?)
