Eat my c**t. After looking at two very different types of queer-coded bromances in Robert Eggers’ The Lighthouse and Ron Underwood’s Tremors, we took a trip to Poland to analyze the trans allegory in the mermaid horror musical The Lure before heading back into the twisted mind of Clive Barker to discuss his infamous directorial debut,

Christopher Young‘s brilliant Hellraiser score is nearly as synonymous with the film as Pinhead — but if writer-director Clive Baker had his way, the soundtrack would have been composed by British industrial music pioneers Coil.

For over two decades, author Brian Keene has given fans stories filled with zombies (The Rising series), massive man-eating earthworms (the Earthworm Gods series), an occult detective (the Levi Stotzfus series), a well-meaning serial killer (“I Am An Exit”, The Complex and more), and numerous other tales of horror, dark fantasy and crime fiction.

Before diving into this week’s episode, be sure to give last week’s chat on Immortality a listen!
