It’s our LONGEST and SPOOKIEST episode yet! This week we talk about our favorite movie monsters, vampires and zombies, and discuss queer themes in horror movies. We dig into how these monsters were represented in film in the 70s and 80s and how they went on to influence vampires and zombies in My Chemical Romance. 

Topics include: fanfiction in 2105, “the gothic”, groaning and boning, monsters as meaning machines, Dracula as a lesbian, film and the uncanny, Maren’s Hayes Code Hour, mass-market horror, Ronald Reagan, body horror and porn, kissing Nosferatu on his head, “suckin’” as a cultural universal, vampires as a marketing scheme for the Catholic Church, normie vampires, Bela Lugosi, Zombie socialism, bad pandemic media, zombie gender, omegaverse and werewolves, the Bullets vampire nightclub, Twilight, and how there’s no 9/11 in Sex and the City.
