Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis star in the 1986 remake of 1950s classic The Fly. Mad scientist Seth Brundle accidentally splices his own DNA with that of a housefly, with grotesque consequences in this David Cronenberg classic.

We discuss the body horror, the gross effects (and some gross dialogue) and how it looks through a rainbow lens.

It's been 50 years since this queer cult classic hit our screens and the love for it continues.

Warning: this episode features a LOT of singing. Hopefully, it's good enough that you stay tuned, but not so good that we get sued by the big D.

We finally got to see A Nice Indian Boy in a cinema! It was great to get to Cinema Nova for the special screening featuring a Q&A with the director and star. It's a great film that tells an authentic queer story, an authentic cultural story and does it all in a hilarious rom-com.

How does this 1968 classic stand up these days? We reviewed this 'meeting the parents' movie and discussed the issues of the time and their relevance today, particularly acceptance from a queer perspective.
