This month on CRUISING THE MOVIES, Liz and KJ take a look at two very different—but similar!—riffs on Alfred Hitchcock's analyzed-to-death PSYCHO: William Castle's 1961 film HOMICIDAL and Mark Oates and Tom Rubnitz's 1985 video short, PSYKHO III: THE MUSICAL. In HOMICIDAL, the kind-hearted Miriam Webster is framed for the cold-blooded murder of a j…

1:17:15

On this episode of CRUISING THE MOVIES, our hosts dive into another queer film classic: Edward D. Wood, Jr..’s GLEN OR GLENDA. Calling anything Ed Wood made a genuine “classic” is a relatively new phenomenon in many film circles. Ed Wood used to be the laughingstock of lazy (and bigoted) critics—his name being shorthand for poorly done and confusin…

Bienvenue! This month on the podcast we’re going international by taking a look at two films shot and set in gay Paree. Up first is Peter de Rome’s 1974 romantic comedy, ADAM & YVES. If you know the film, it’s probably for at least one of two reasons: that it was Peter de Rome’s first feature-length narrative film or that it technically includes Gr…

This week on the podcast, we explore one of the strangest and most outrageous gay films of the 1970s: Red Drayton’s HOLLYWOOD COWBOY.

1:44:56

Wakefield Poole’s Boys in the Sand wasn’t the first gay porn film, nor was it star Casey Donovan’s screen debut. It wasn’t even the first gay film to be be shot on Fire Island.

Spooky Season is in full force with this week’s episode: Linus Terri’s horny phantom melodrama WE’LL MEET AGAIN!

What happens when a short story becomes a classic movie, which then becomes a radio play, and then a Broadway musical, and then a campy drag parody featuring the beefy one-time owner of the Gold’s Gym empire? You get Ray Harrison and the GGRC’s 1972 film ALL ABOUT ALICE. This week, we’re celebrating the American Genre Film Archive’s upcoming blu-ra…
