Before diving into the first of our end-of-the-year coverage, listen to last month’s edition of The Inventory, Safe Room’s monthly review round-up. Between finalizing holiday plans, purchasing gifts, and compiling those dreaded (or delightful) end-of-the-year lists, we are officially in our mad dash to the end of the year! This year Neil and I started […]

As the great Mother Superior said, “When we do something naughty, we are always caught. Then, we are punished. Punishment is absolute, punishment is good.” And let’s not forget, Santy Claus only brings presents to them that’s been good all year. All the other ones, all the naughty ones, he punishes! What about you? You […]

To date, Stephen King has published 65 novels, 11 collections, five non-fiction books, and over 200 short stories. That’s all without including the screenplays, the adaptations, the essays, and the list goes on. For Constant Readers, it can be overwhelming trying to keep tabs on all things that serve the beam that is King’s Dominion. […]

Before diving into this month’s edition of The Inventory, listen to last week’s discussion on horror game adaptations of film! Welcome to another edition of The Inventory, Safe Room’s monthly review show, in which we amass some of the latest (and hopefully) greatest horror games released within a given month and discuss their merits or […]

MA-LI-BU BAR-BIE! It’s already the end of November, but we had a wild ride this month discussing the dream-like pastel world of Jennifer Reeder’s women-centric Knives and Skin and the 25th-anniversary fascist machismo world of Paul Verhoeven’s Starship Troopers. Then last week we made our second foray into animated fare (after ParaNorman) with Satoshi Kon‘s stunning first […]

The Dark Tower looms, but first? Dinner at the Dixie Pig. The Losers’ Club resumes their sprint through the final volumes of The Dark Tower saga (Wind Through the Keyhole, notwithstanding) with this epic discussion about the relatively slim Song of Susannah. Released in the summer of 2004, the penultimate Dark Tower novel bounces across […]

Before tuning into this week’s discussion, make sure to checkout last week’s episode in which Rob Coakley of Hometown Ghost Stories joined us to chat all about the Resident Evil 2 remake! When most genre fans hear “adaptation,” their minds likely jump straight to film adaptations of games. And I don’t know if you know […]

Otaku and Kawaii It feels like November has barely begun, and yet here we are three weeks in. Like most months on Horror Queers, we’ve been all over the place, including the dream-like pastel world of Jennifer Reeder’s women-centric Knives and Skin and the 25th-anniversary fascist machismo world of Paul Verhoeven’s Starship Troopers. Now we’re pivoting […]

“As a species we’re fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and startdreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion?” It appears we may have a problem of some magnitude, and The Losers’ Club are attempting to fight it as they revisit […]

Before diving into our Resident Evil 2 Safe Room episode, be sure to listen to this month’s edition of the indie horror showcase Horror Bytes! Without an ounce of hyperbole, playing Resident Evil 2 was a life-changing experience for me. Despite coming to Capcom’s revered sequel far too late, Resident Evil 2 gave me my […]

Would you like to know more? After hanging with two-time RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Jinkx Monsoon to praise the camp classic Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, we got a bit more abstract with the ethereal noir-ish antics of Jennifer Reeder’s Knives and Skin. This week, we’re delving into Paul Verhoeven‘s not-so-secret satire Starship Troopers in celebration of its […]

The Losers’ Club find themselves in Hell, where they’re surrounded by the most scorching Stephen King hot takes they’ve read to date. How scorching? Take a gander at a few: “The Dark Tower is boring…”; “Gerald’s Game isn’t scary…”; “Bill Hodges is good actually.” The takes go on and on like this, and, as Glenn […]

WAPP WAPP WAPP With October firmly in the rearview mirror, it’s bizarre to reflect on what a wild month it turned out to be. Not only did Trace and I celebrate our 200th Main Feed episode with Karyn Kusama’s perfect film, The Invitation (2015), we revisited David Gordon Green’s divisive Halloween Kills, and even managed to get […]

If Striking Distance Studios’ “Mastering Horror” docuseries wasn’t enough to tide you over until the release of The Callisto Protocol, then how about a horror podcast prequel? That’s exactly what you’re getting with Helix Station, a six-part series starring Gwendoline Christie, Kevin Durand and Michael Ironside. The first two episodes are out now. Showrun and […]

There are some Halloween traditions that never die. Candy corn, for instance. We’ll always have it. It’ll always be there. (Probably long after our own corpses are rotting away six feet under!) The same goes for carving jack-o-lanterns, decorating candy apples, and trick or treating throughout our respective neighborhoods. These are quality American traditions. Universal […]
