Happy Pride! This year Vanessa & Daeron dissect the queer & trans aspects of 1998’s “Bride of Chucky” & 2004’s “Seed of Chunky.” Do they deserve the hate that they got when they were originally released? Or were they ahead of their time? We certainly think they need another watch & need to be appreciated for the LGBTQ+ content alone. Be sure to listen for our poll question from the episode (hint: it involves Julia Roberts). You can weigh in on Facebook or via our email. We’ll announce our answers next episode.

It’s that time of year again. We’ve made it through another year, & Vanessa and Daeron are bringing you another anniversary commentary episode. This time we cover David Lynch’s “Blue Velvet.” The 1986 film starring Kyle MacLachlan, Isabella Rossellini, Laura Dern, & Dennis Hopper is a bit more prestigious than some of our other commentaries, yet we manage some laughs.
