TẬP MỚI NHẤT 🔗

Starting some time in the last decade or so, we’ve all run into the dreaded phrase “elevated horror.” Sometimes it meant A24. Sometimes it meant horror movies too-obvious in their treatment of grief, trauma, race, motherhood, or family dysfunction. Sometimes it just meant horror movies that critics…

TẬP TRƯỚC

Jump to the Left, Step to the Right

For fifty years, The Rocky Horror Picture Show has endured as a midnight ritual. The first thing any fan or critic wants to talk about is the cult following and audience participation elements: the costumes, callbacks, inside jokes, the flying props. And that’s all good fun. But the carnivalesque c…
We’ve arrived at the final chapter of Sweet Sweet Suffering ! I’ve long had a soft spot for Hellraiser: Bloodline. It features my favorite cenobite, Angelique, and has always struck me as the franchise at its most narratively ambitious. To this day, Hellraiser: Bloodline has a reputation problem. …
If you caught part one of Sweet Sweet Suffering, you know that Hellraiser is about the paradox of desire. Frank Cotton doesn’t just want pleasure — after finding the ultimate experience, he wants to want again. Hellbound: Hellraiser II expands the world of the first film in a way that’s easy to mis…

Hellraiser: The Paradox of Desire

Welcome to Sweet Sweet Suffering: A Three-Part Video Essay on Hellraiser! In part one, I argue Hellraiser is not about demons. It's about desire, and best understood as mapping to a specific theory of desire from Jacques Lacan, one of the twentieth century’s most provocative and influential thinke…

She Wants REVENGE

This one took a while. This is part Three of my continuing series on Carol Clover’s Men, Women, and Chainsaws. And while it follows naturally from the first two installments, it stands completely on its own — you don’t need to have watched the first two videos to watch and understand this one. The …

Every Jason Kill RANKED

This is one of the last videos I’ve had in the vault from my Youtube days. It started as a silly idea for a kind of audacious clickbait project. I didn’t realize how wildly time-consuming it’d end up being. And it was kind of a maddening project too. Many times along the way, I felt uncomfortably d…

GUTTER TALK #3 - Best of Horror 2025

In this audio-only episode, I’m joined again by Cynthia to count down the best horror movies of 2025. The conversation is 100% spoiler free—and I think also free of pretentious jargon! WDYT - was 2024 or 2025 a better year for horror? Many are asking. This is a public episode. If you'd like to di…

Pious in Pink (part 2)

This is part two of my investigation into Japanese nunsploitation. Building on the foundation built in part one—which featured a brief history of pink film and a close reading of School of the Holy Beast, the foundational Japanese nunsploitation film—this video explores six additional pink nunsploi…

His Pain, Her Performance

This is part two of a video series analyzing Carol J. Clover’s Men, Women, and Chainsaws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film. You can catch up on part one here, or you can jump right into this one. Part one focused on Clover’s classic reading of the slasher film and her coining of the term Final Girl…
