This Pride Month edition of Sitting in the Dark shines a lavender light on the long-standing but often invisible relationship between horror cinema and queer identity. Host Kynan Dias traces horror's appeal to outsiders—particularly LGBTQ+ viewers—who find coded representation in monsters, victims, and the margins of genre storytelling.The episode dives deep into three genre-defining films.The Bride of Frankenstein (1935)James Whale's campy sequel is reevaluated as a foundational queer text. The panel explores how Whale, an out gay director, infused the film with coded themes of same-sex companionship, rejection, and theatricality. From Dr. Pretorius's foppish villainy to the Bride's brief, iconic scream, the film is bursting with subtext—much of it retroactively interpreted through the lens of queer longing and societal othering. The group also riffs on Whale's tonal whiplash, Elsa Lanchester's cultural impact, and why “We belong dead” might be the most tragic queer line in horror history.A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985)Often derided as a messy sequel, this film is now embraced by many as a camp classic of queer horror. The conversation covers the now-notorious creative denials around its subtext, the dynamic between actor Mark Patton and the filmmakers, and the striking presence of a “final boy” whose journey blurs lines between possession, repression, and queer awakening. The film's overt homoeroticism—locker rooms, leather bars, and sweaty dance sequences—is discussed not just for laughs, but as meaningful queer coding in the Reagan-era horror landscape. The panel also reckons with Freddy as a metaphor for internalized shame, and what it means when a horror film can't quite let its subtext become text.Titane (2021)Winner of the Palme d'Or and easily the most divisive film of the trio, Titane pushes the panel into complex conversations about gender fluidity, body horror, and the relationship between performance and identity. Is this a trans allegory? A critique of binaries? Or just a deeply weird tale of trauma and transformation? The hosts wrestle with the film's ambiguity, discussing its uncompromising visuals, unexpectedly tender surrogate father-son relationship, and what it means to build a chosen family amidst radical bodily change. Some saw it as alienating; others, transcendent. All agreed: this one will be analyzed for decades.This episode doesn't wrap everything up with a rainbow bow—and that's the point. Horror isn't tidy, and queerness rarely comes with clean lines or clear labels. But if you've ever felt like the monster, the final someone, or the person who's just a little too into the firetruck, this conversation might feel like coming home. Or at least like sitting in the dark with people who see what you see.Film SundriesThe List on LetterboxdWatch the movies discussed:The Bride of Frankenstien: Apple • Amazon • LetterboxdA Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge: Apple • Amazon • LetterboxdTitane: Apple • Amazon • Letterboxd (00:00) - Welcome to Sitting in the Dark (07:05) - Coded Queer Horror (10:03) - Dealing with the Morality Police (16:21) - Bride of Frankenstein (35:14) - A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge (53:55) - Titane (01:21:46) - Coming Attractions: The Drac Pack Learn how to support our show and The Next Reel's family of film podcasts by becoming a member.

We close out both the Friday the 13th franchise and the Nightmare on elm street franchise with this entry from 2003. (We unfortunately had some technical difficulties with this episode, so apologies for the sound quality.)
Originally Recorded in May and June 2025 Hola, fans! That Horror Show Podcast brings you the third and final episode on Coffin Joe, created by Brazilian filmmaker Jose Mojica Marins. Show hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig finally give their take on the last two films and they are really something. First film on the docket for review is "Hellish Flesh" (1977), which could be easily described as a bizarre horror/thriller that is and is not a Coffin Joe vehicle. And after that, the hosts tackle "Hallucinations of a Deranged Mind" (1978), aka 'Coffin Joe Stock Footage Film Festival', in which new material is stitched with old to make a complete movie with hallucinogenic results and dime-store pop psychology! And yes, Nate from 'Kids Corner' gives his take on the Wes Craven horror classic "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984)! #coffinjoe #robertenglund #Hellishflesh #freddykruger #THSP E-mail: thathorrorshowpodcast@gmail.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/thathorrorshowpodcast Instagram: Tim@thathorrorshowposcast.instagram Slasher app: Tim@ThatHorrorGuy
Elm Street is getting hot, heavy, and homoerotic as hell in FREDDY'S REVENGE, starring Mark Patton, Kim Myers, and Robert Englund. We've brought back special guest Ms. Megan to discuss this controversial sequel in honor of both Friday the 13th (we'll explain) and LGBTQIA+ Pride Month.
So, would you believe it. Today we return to the world of metal on A Year In Horror. Yes! Welcome to the mad minds of American Thrash metal fright fiends Warbringer. Their latest album is entitled 'Wrath And Ruin' and it came out on March 14th on Napalm Records. This is what it's all about. Today we speak with guitarist player Adam Carroll about the band, his history with horror and of course the Japanese head scratcher, House.WARBRINGER // HOUSE // PATREON // LETTERBOXD LINK FOR ALL BAND CONVERSATIONS
OJ has picked the movie for this week of Rotten Tomatoes....Nice, and he picked the most 80s movie ever, A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. Will Freddy win us over? Tune in and find out!!!
Send us a textKatie and Bridget keep each other awake as they rewatch the 80's horror classic: A Nightmare on Elm Street! Come along as we meet Nancy, an allegedly 15 year old teenager, who begins to have nightmares about Freddy Krueger, a bumbly serial killer with finger knives! Ah! When her friend Tina, her boyfriend Glenn, and the local menace Rod all have similar dreams of the same man then everybody starts dying! Seriously - there's lots of cool deaths in this movie with lots and lots of blood. Nobody believes Nancy when she tries to tell everyone who the killer is - not even her Mom who murdered the damn guy and is keeping his finger knife glove in her basement as a trophy - spoiler alert! It's up to Nancy to do all the research, make all the booby traps, and fight back against Freddy in her dreams. Seriously, should Nancy be the chief of police instead of her father!? Released in 1984, it was written and directed by Wes Craven and stars Heather Langenkamp, Johnny Depp, Robert Englund, John Saxon, Amanda Wyss, Jsu Garcia, and Ronee Blakley.
The Blob (1958) & The Blob (1988) Continuing our theme of taking a deep dive into an original film and its remake, this time we're looking at a pair with exactly 30 years between them: The Blob, from 1958, and its 1988 remake. A lot had changed in those three decades, especially on the technical side, with advancements in special makeup effects definitely upping the ante on what we see on screen. But the remake also retains much of the same small-town feel and trappings of the original. With these two entries, it's interesting to see the similarities just as much as how the remake plays out as its own creature; sometimes winking at the original, but ultimately leaving its own gelatinous footprint. For those out there that love to hate on remakes, here's yet another pair that break the mold and had given us two entertaining entries. Sit back and enjoy!

In this episode, Aran and Tom dive deep into the foggy dreamscape of 2010's A Nightmare on Elm Street reboot — a film that dared to recast horror icon Freddy Krueger and reimagine the franchise for a new generation.With Robert Englund stepping aside for Jackie Earle Haley's darker, more sinister take on Freddy, the reboot introduced updated visual effects, modern horror sensibilities, and a much more controversial origin story that split fans down the middle.We explore the production choices, the tonal shift, and the legacy (or lack thereof) of this infamous remake. Was it a misunderstood update or a soulless clone?Tune in as we dissect the dream logic, the backlash, and the future of Freddy's nightmares.

Pete Wright hosts a brutally personal Mother's Day episode of Sitting in the Dark, joined by regular co-conspirators Kyle Olson, Kynan Dias, and Tommy Metz III, as they dig into three films that ask a profoundly unsettling question: What if Mom is the monster?We start with Run (2020), a film that's more “Lifetime original” than it has any right to be. It's clean, tight, and distressingly effective. Sarah Paulson's performance is terrifying not because she twirls her mustache but because she doesn't have one. And newcomer Kiera Allen rolls (yes, rolls) away with the movie by doing exactly what her character does best—staying two clever steps ahead.Next, Goodnight Mommy (2014). Austrian, austere, and absolutely harrowing. It's a film about maternal misrecognition, grief-fueled delusion, and the dangers of not labeling your twins' toothbrushes. There's a twist, and if you see it coming, that won't make the third act any less of a gut punch. It's what happens when grief curdles, and no one's left to explain bedtime.And then: mother! (2017). Darren Aronofsky's symphonic descent into allegorical madness. Sure, it's “about” the Bible. It's also about climate change. It's about patriarchy, artistic ego, and the cosmic price of hospitality. Or maybe it's just a guy on a cocaine bender writing a play he'll never finish. Whether you think it's pretentious or profound (hint: it's both), one thing is clear—Jennifer Lawrence earns every ounce of your attention and maybe a few gallons of blood.Across these three films, the panel explores how motherhood in horror isn't just about nurture gone wrong. It's about architecture—both of the home and the psyche. It's about women who are worshipped, consumed, blamed, and erased. And yes, sometimes it's about cockroaches.Films Discussed:Run (2020) – dir.

While New Nightmare has its moments of creativity and strong performances, it ultimately falls short of delivering the thrills and chills that fans expect from a Nightmare on Elm Street film. It's a thought-provoking entry in the franchise, but one that lacks the cohesive storytelling and visceral scares that made the original films classics. For die-hard fans of the series, it may be worth a watch, but for those seeking a truly terrifying experience, it may leave you wanting more.

There's no denying Nightmare's place in horror history. It birthed a legend, introduced a terrifying concept, and proved that low-budget horror could be wildly imaginative. But as a film, it's best appreciated with caveats. It's not airtight. It's not consistently scary. But it is audacious, and sometimes that's enough to earn a nightmare or two.

The slasher series without a slasher returns for its sixth instalment, fourteen years after we last saw it. Where Halloween gave us Michael Myers, Friday the 13th, Jason Voorhees, and A Nightmare on Elm Street, Freddy Krueger, Final Destination made death the villain - perhaps more accurately, Death, but we never see a cloaked man wielding a scythe. Where the figure of the slasher killer could, in principle, be evaded and even beaten, Final Destination's Death, non-corporeal and omnipresent, carries a key threat of inevitability. Nobody escapes Death. In each Final Destination film, one character's premonition of catastrophe gives them the chance to save themselves and others from death, but Death won't take being cheated lying down, and sets its sights on pursuing its near-victims to the graves they're currently avoiding. How? Through elaborate, Rube Goldberg-esque accidents, of course. We discuss the ways in which Final Destination Bloodlines' set pieces work, how they focus on small moments and individual stories, and how they're a nightmare for the naturally anxious. José isn't shy of expressing his dislike of the film; Mike, the opposite, and he does his best to explain the appeal of watching so many people perish in such gruesome ways. We even ask whether a slasher series could be made with which José would see eye to eye, and imagine what it might look like. Recorded on 20th May 2025.
On episode 220, we discussed bidets, kitchen TVs and khakis. Enjoy!

Maybe that's why they spent their time pulling from other movies like Poltergeist, Ghostbusters, and the director's own Nightmare on Elm Street to try to make sense of it. Still, with bigtime 80s horror vibes and a title that's easy to confuse with something else, you might want to find something to bite down on; this episode (featuring a beer from the Powerhouse Brewing Company) is 100,000 volts of fun!

We talk about the pressure to conform, the myth that diversity is a risk, and how films like Sinners are proving just how wrong that is.We also touch on the origins of Flight 180, the everyday objects that now give people anxiety, the brilliance of Tony Todd, and how Final Destination continues to evolve even without him directly involved.

A Taste of Evil (1971), Snowbeast (1977), This House Possessed (1981) We're back on the small screen for our fourth dive into the world of made-for-TV horror—which should tell you something: we love these things. Maybe it's nostalgia from growing up in an era when you couldn't stream whatever you wanted, whenever you wanted. Or maybe it's because some of these films were just plain good—tight, creepy little stories that managed to leave a mark. This time around, we're not talking about the crown jewels of the genre, but rather three solid, middle-of-the-pack entries: well-made, weirdly memorable, and wildly watchable. You've got disturbed minds, ski lodge mayhem, and a haunted house that's a little too into you. If the stories don't grab you, the casts just might. Films mentioned in this episode: 1941 (1979), Abominable (2006), Alien (1979), Amityville Horror (1979), Asylum (1972), Beetlejuice (1988), Beyond the Door (1974), Blazing Saddles (1974), Butcher Baker, Nightmare Maker (1981), City of the Dead (1960), City Slickers (1991), The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), Don't be Afraid of the Dark (1973), Dark Night of the Scarecrow (1981), Devil Dog: Hound of Hell (1978), The Devil's Daughter (1973), Double Indemnity (1944), Drag Me to Hell (2009), Duel (1971), Frankenstein: The True Story (1973), Halloween (1978), House by the Cemetery (1981), House that Wouldn't Die (1970), Horror of Dracula (1958), I, Desire (1982), The Dirty Dozen (1967), Jaws (1975), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), Night of the Creeps (1986), The Night Stalker (1972), The Night Walker (1964), Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid (1973), Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (1987), Psycho (1960), Re-Animator (1985), Salem's Lot (1979), Satan's School for Girls (1973), Scream of Fear (1961), Shriek of the Mutilated (1974), Snowbeast (1977), Strange and Deadly Occurrence (1974), Suspiria (1977), A Taste of Evil (1971), Three Stooges Meet Hercules (1962), This House of Possessed (1981), The Tingler (1959), Trilogy of Terror (1975), Videodrome (1983)

1, 2, Freddy's coming for you… again! We're diving deep into the controversial 2010 remake of “A Nightmare on Elm Street” for its (almost unbelievable) 15th anniversary! Was Samuel Bayer's vision truly a nightmare, or an unfairly maligned attempt to resurrect the horror icon created by Wes Craven? We dissect the script rewrites from Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, Jackie Earle Haley's take on Freddy Krueger, and the performances of Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara, Katie Cassidy, Thomas Dekker, and Kellan Lutz. Joining in for this discussion after a long absence is our boy Donnie (@thedonnierequel on Instagram), who was one of the first guests of Back To The Blockbuster who helped turn it into what it is today. It's a dream having him back but is this remake a nightmare worthy of horror praise or is it a bad dream we'd all like to forget?
