The Gory Gays

We're back for the Spooky Season, ghouls and girls!While this episode covers quite a lot (we've been gone since February), the main focus is the 1979 ABC special, 'The Halloween That Almost Wasn't' (or 'The Night Dracula Saved the World') -- a twenty-five minute Halloween romp for the ages starring Mariette Hartley and Judd Hirsch. We just love Halloween movies that make us feel like kids again and also gives us reminders of what Halloween used to make us feel. Also in this episode are massive spoilers for the new 'Carrie' and 'Crystal Lake' television shows (all streaming now, on Prime and Peacock). Were we happy to be visited with fresh takes on classic tales? Listen now and find out!We also dive into online bullying, Son of Monsterpalooza and The Horror Exhibit, and of course, Alex is quizzed on his horror knowledge because that's how we do things. An unconventional episode, indeed, but an episode nonetheless! Thanks for having us!- TGGInstagram @thegorygays / YouTube @thegorygays / Threads @thegorygays / Patreon.com/thegorygays / www.thegorygays.com

(Double sigh) Enjoy our chat, including but not limited to one of the most scattered plots we’ve ever had to slash up, how much we do in fact love our girls Jennifer Love and Brandy, as well as a lil’ bit about the latest in the franchise (yes, there are lots of spoilers so listen at your own risk!)

"If you're going to bury the truth, make sure it stays buried."Put on your slickers and grab your fishing hooks because we’re going to the bluest town that’s ever existed to bury some bodies and keep some secrets! You guessed it gory bb’s, we’re slashing up and bleeding out the slasher classic, “I Know What You Did Last Summer” (1997), just in time for the release of the reboot! There’s much to discuss, ranging from the source material (did anyone know there was a book from the seventies?), to who was almost cast as our beloved heroine Julie James (rhymes with Creesed Fitherscoons), the sequels, and obviously, we talk a little about the upcoming film and what we’re expecting from it. Really though, we have only one question for you: What are you waiting for, huh?! Listen to episode 52 now!-TGGInstagram @thegorygays / YouTube @thegorygays / Threads @thegorygays / Patreon.com/thegorygays / www.thegorygays.com

“If looks could kill, he wouldn’t need a chainsaw.”Did you know there’s a random entry in the Texas Chainsaw series starring Renée Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey?! 😱Yup — it’s real. It’s called Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1994) (aka The Next Generation) and it’s the fever dream of the franchise: chaotic, campy, and completely unhinged.We’re talking Leatherface in full drag, McConaughey with a robot leg, government conspiracies, and Renée running for her life in a prom dress. 🎀🪓No wonder the stars tried to hide it for years — but now that it’s become a cult fave, we totally get why they’ve come around.We watched the director’s cut (because, duh 😌) and we’re ready to slash it open. So grab your lipstick, rev that chainsaw, and join us as we dive into one of the wildest horror sequels of the ’90s.We’re goin’ to Texas, y’all… and we’re never coming back the same. 💋🔥- TGGInstagram @thegorygays / YouTube @thegorygays / Threads @thegorygays / Patreon.com/thegorygays / www.thegorygays.com

(available 7/7)Crack those knuckles, burn your sage, and prep yourselves for some truly bad screenwriting -- because we're skipping the first "Witchboard" and diving right into it's stupid sequel - Part 2: "The Devil's Doorway", but rest assured gory babies - it's basically the same movie, right down the bad directing and stupid script, all thanks to Kevin Tenney. Not even Stanley's crush on Ami Dolenz can save this terrible film, but hey, that won't stop him from slashing up and bleeding out every silly second! Press play with him at the 31:11 mark, and don't forget to join  the Patreon for more audio commentaries for other long forgotten gems of the genre. Have a safe fourth!-The Gory GaysInstagram @thegorygays / YouTube @thegorygays / Threads @thegorygays / Patreon.com/thegorygays / www.thegorygays.com
