Shit Your Pants After ringing in the New Year with the gayest slasher ever made, Trace and I are doing something that Horror Queers has never done: we’re revisiting a film we’ve already covered!

Now we’re wrapping up the year with a discussion of Carter Smith‘s (The Ruins, Jamie Marks […]

Bitchy, Bickering Bitches. It’s been a pretty wild December, with us covering off-kilter films like the much-maligned Batman & Robin and the not-as-bad-as-you-think Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings.

In 1978, the man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed. In 2004, the gunslinger’s journey came to an end. Sort of. The Losers’ Club concludes its sprint through the final volumes of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower saga with an episode about, what else, 2004’s final chapter The Dark Tower VII: […]

I have worked professionally in podcasting for over a decade, and I think it’s helpful to know what other people in my field are up to. So I do my best to at least sample any podcast I am recommended, and as a result I am currently subscribed (this is not a joke or exaggeration) […]

Before listening to Part 1 of Safe Room’s GOTY episode, give last week’s discussion detailing our indie Horror Bytes of the year a listen! Does anyone else feel like they blinked, got up to get a soda, stepped out for a smoke, woke up from a four-hour nap, and now don’t know where they are, […]

Three years ago, following the lack of recognition at the Oscars for horror films, Trace Thurman and I created “The Hereditaries” (named after Toni Collette’s Hereditary omission), a series of horror awards to acknowledge all of the great work being done in the genre.

Holy Ice Puns, Batman!

The film sees Batman (George Clooney) and his partner, Robin (Chris O’Donnell), attempting […]

It’s beginning to look a lot like Kingmas… So, what is Kingmas? Good question. Over the years, it’s become a blanket term for The Losers’ Club and Constant Listeners as they celebrate the holidays in King’s Dominion. In the past we’ve done mail bag episodes, we’ve gone over Stephen King‘s tweets, we’ve even had musicians […]
