Break out your flute because we're talking about queer director Erlingur Thoroddsen's latest film, The Piper!
We like this fine. The story is a bit too familiar, but the technical elements make up for that.
Plus: Julian Sands' last role, a gnarly kill scene, and wishing the Harbinger had more to do.

Chucky Queers: S03E08 "Final Destination"

Don't read from the Book of the Dead and definitely don't pick up any of those Scarab jewels, because we're discussing Stephen Sommers' masterful action-adventure-horror-romantic-comedy The Mummy (1999), just in time for its 25th anniversary! Tagging in for the conversation is Welsh singer-songwriter Rod Thomas, aka Bright Light Bright Light!
Join us as we go all in on this summer blockbuster spectacle. From the bisexual energy of a perfectly cast Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz to a rather wild and incredibly lengthy production history (Clive Barker was involved???), we've got you covered on all things The Mummy!
Plus: how Babe: Pig in the City almost ruined Universal, an educational conversation about Rotten Tomatoes, and one major disagreement over a drunk acting scene!
