Fear the Talking Queers

Welcome to "Fear the Talking Queers", where it's like watching a horror movie with queer eyes.  Find out who we are before episode 1, where we will fully dive into human flesh and scrape the bone beneath.  Sweet screams, bitches! Updated : 4/6/2021

Our very first episode was intended to focus on the "Scream" franchise; but with the current climate our nation is in, we would much rather celebrate some of our favorite artists who exude black excellence.  We highlight the stellar horror doc: "Horror Noire-A History of Black Horror."  Available to stream on Shudder.  This documentary explores the contributions of black artists to the horror genre and exposes the negative propaganda cinema publishes in regards to black characters...

We're exploring some of the films in Horror Noire!  Starting us off is Candyman (1992).   Adapted and directed by Bernard Rose.  While the film has become an iconic slasher, it does have its problems.   Hopefully with Nia DaCosta and Jordan Peele at the helm of Candyman (2020), this film will see justice and clarification.  Sweet screams, bitch. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fearthetalkingqueers/support

This week, we look into another film mentioned in "Horror Noire:  A History of Black Horror."  Diving into the world according to Jordan Peele with "Us."  10s across America for this film!   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fearthetalkingqueers/support

Pride 2020 is a complicated one but we are making the most of it with our Pride episode!  Remember, Pride season was built on the backs of brave black and brown people who gave us freedom to live our truth, be ourselves and strength to stay proud beyond Pride month.    In this episode, we discuss the following organizations:  transgenderlawcenter.org,  transequality.org, blackaids.org, latinoaids.org.  Sweet screams and Happy Pride, bitch! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify...

Psycho (1960), Psycho (1998), Bates Motel...SO MANY versions of Norman Bates' story.   We explore these three adaptations of Norman sashaying through the Bates Motel!

He is ACTUALLY played by Austin Nichols. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fearthetalkingqueers/support

Unpleasant dreams!    We are talking about our homegirl Elvira. We also discuss our favorite scream queens and music artists!   Elvira is the third and final "lost" episode that we recorded over a month ago so some of the material may be out of date but enjoy!  Sweet screams, bitch!

BUCKLE UP! We are talking 90's summer slasher "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and it's tropical hurricane of a sequel "I STILL Know What You Did Last Summer"! Tune in to hear about our summer jams, more Anne Heche, and why it's WAY more fun to play the "best friend". You'll be HOOKED!

This week, Jake is joined by a Guest Host, from the podcast NOBODY’S LISTENING, Alex Codd! We’re taking a deep cave-dive into the catacombs of 2005’s The Descent. Hear these boys struggle with sporting terms, stan over strong women, and see if Jake made a horror film fan out of Alex!
