Happy Pride! This week I'm talking about lesbian vampire classic, "Daughters of Darkness." I talk about why I love lesbian vampires so much and get turned on by Delphine Seyrig.

I'm alone in my closet again for this week's episode discussing Mario Bava's iconic giallo film "Blood and Black Lace." I talk about the history of giallo films some of the major themes in this sub-genre.

This week I'm joined by writer, actress, comedian, and better bottom than you, The Gay Chingy. We discuss Chingy's favorite director Gregg Araki and his shocking, highly tumblr-ed film "The Doom Generation." Topics include shock value, apocalyptic 90s aesthetics, and the gayness of MMF threesomes.

This week I'm joined by former sex worker and lesbian drama expert, Sarah Patterson to discuss one of our favorite films, "Basic Instinct." We talk about secret lesbian worlds, controversial female characters, and using sexuality to subvert the patriarchy.

I'm joined by my friend Jory Shareff to discuss Louis Malle's infamously controversial 1978 film, "Pretty Baby" starring a young Brooke Shields as a child sex worker. We explore our own feelings of discomfort with the plot, as well as the various themes of free will, autonomy, and complicity that are explored in the film.

Welcome to the first official episode of Girls, Guts, & Giallo! I discuss the 1976 slasher classic "Alice, Sweet Alice" directed by Alfred Sole and featuring a young Brooke Shields as the film's central victim. Through a recap of some scenes that I consider significant, we look at how the film explores themes of Catholicism, doppelgängers, and womanhood.
