Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping 

Ishana Shyamalan’s The Watchers into the ol’ VCR.

Friends, I’ll be honest with you… 

Based on some of the reviews I’ve seen, I was fully prepared to tear this movie to shreds; I basically clicked my pen open as I sat down in the theater. 

However, I thought it was fine. 

I don’t think it’s a revolutionary horror movie by any means, and I probably wouldn’t watch it again, but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. 

Before we go any further, I feel like this is a good time to throw out one of my trademark disclaimers: 

The great thing about movies is that we can discuss and debate them. Just because I think a movie is great doesn’t make it a good movie, and just because I think a movie is awful doesn’t make it a bad movie. Also, making a movie is extremely difficult and incredibly badass, and I don’t want to detract from the process. 

Moving on. 

Let’s start with the positives. 

I think the women in this movie are INCREDIBLE, and I hope the studio is paying for their chiropractor bills as they carry this entire film on their backs. 

I also don’t mind the direction we took with the big bads. Truly. 

In fact, I think the lore is kind of cool. 

Additionally, I think it was really ballsy for Ishana Shyamalan to choose a book adaptation for her directorial film debut. Movies based on books always tend to be held to a higher standard by fandoms, and you’re never going to please everyone. 

Now, let’s get to the negative. 

First and foremost, I think this might be another case of “this would be better as a series” for me. I think we could’ve taken deeper dives into the lore and gotten more info about Dr. Rory Kilmartin (John Lynch). 

Tbh, pieces of this really feel like a 2000s Sci-Fi series to me, and I think it could’ve really leaned into that genre more. 

Secondly, there’s way too much CGI. I understand that only using practical effects wouldn’t be plausible for this content, but I do think we could’ve either toned-down or fine-tuned the CGI. 

Thirdly, and I know I’ve had this critique with several movies lately, but the writing feels stiff. I’m not sure if AI was used to start some scripts during the strike or as a jumping-off point, but there have definitely been some noticeable issues with dialogue being unnatural in several movies I’ve seen lately. 

My final critique is that the end was a bit predictable for me. I’ll keep the spoilers to myself, but I did see a lot of what happened coming from a mile away. 

I know it may not seem like it, but I would definitely see another movie that Ishana Shyamalan directed. I think the bones were there in The Watchers, but it just needed some tweaks. 

All in all, I think The Watchers is an okay way to kill an hour and 40-ish minutes on a day off or a Sunday afternoon.

Just, y’know, maybe leave if anyone looks they just drove in from the uncanny valley.

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping Logo TV into the ol’ VCR.

I remember the day that cable switched from analog to digital. 

Seriously. 

My childhood is a bit fuzzy because of illness and trauma, but, by God, I remember the day we had to go pick up our box from the cable company. 

I think I remember it so vividly because that’s when my pop culture obsession ramped up; I was no longer limited to the same few channels. 

Suddenly, I had what seemed like endless options. 

And that’s where Logo TV comes in. 

Video source: Kommershul Klassics

For those unfamiliar, Logo was an LGBTQIA+-centered station launched in 2005. 

You may know Logo from such hits as being the original network for a tiny and humble little reality show called RuPaul’s Drag Race back in 2009. 

Logo also showed movies and is responsible for my first viewings of Wet Hot American Summer, But I’m A Cheerleader, and Psycho Beach Party. 

Video source: SunnydaleArchives

The network would even go on to produce the new AbFab specials, albeit that they were super edited when aired. 

Logo has a special place in my heart because a closeted queer kid like me could watch movies that showed people like me. 

I still remember coming across Drag Race my senior year of high school at a friend’s house and being enamored by all of the drag queens and thinking about how brave I thought they were for coming out. 

Logo now seems to be a shell of its former self. Some of their older content can still be found on Paramount+, but the channel itself seems to only show reruns of Drag Race and sitcoms like The Nanny and The Facts of Life. 

And, honestly, that breaks my heart. 

We do a lot of retrospective pieces here, so I’ll save you my whole “Landslide”-esque spiel. But, it’s sad to see a channel that taught me about camp and queerness be obsolete. 

Regardless, I’m glad Logo TV was around when I was a kid because it showed content that would help me eventually realize I wasn’t straight. Also, the bumpers for Eating Out also live in my head rent-free.

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping dad horror movies into the ol’ VCR.

Coming off Father’s Day weekend, I thought we could celebrate by talking about some of the fiendish fathers of horror. 

Now, I want to give a couple of classic disclaimers up top: 

First and foremost, it was actually a lot harder than I thought to find horror movies with dads as villains, and it made me realize that maternal figures tend to be more villainized (shocker). 

Secondly, I know that some of these dads are more antiheroes than pure villains, i.e. Louis Creed. 

Thirdly, I would Google CWs and TWs for some of these films because there are allusions and/or portrayals of abuse in some of these films that could be triggering. 

And finally, as someone whose father was abusive, I totally understand that Father’s Day might just be another day to a lot of people. It may be a day of celebration for some or of grieving for others. 

However Father’s Day looks for you, your feelings are valid. 🖤

Alrighty, I think that’ll do us for disclaimers. Without further ado, here are 10 pieces of Father’s Day content that will leave you begging for a good dad joke: 

• Frailty 
• Parents 
• Tamara
• Mom and Dad 
• The Shining 
• Cheap Thrills
• Pet Sematary
• The Stepfather
• We Need to Do Something 
• “Father’s Day” segment from Holidays

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping the work of Lily Tomlin into the ol’ VCR.

Oh, Lily Tomlin. Where do I even start?

A lot of people probably don’t realize that Lily Tomlin was the voice of many of our childhoods as Ms. Frizzle. 

If you also grew up in my house, Lily Tomlin would’ve also been a quintessential part of your childhood through 9 to 5, The X-Files, and The West Wing. 

On top of being a major part of my upbringing, Lily Tomlin is a feminist and activist. She’s been with her wife, Jane Wagner, since the 70s. Additionally, Lily Tomlin has been tight with Dolly Parton and Jane Fonda since 9 to 5. 

Needless to say, she’s a total badass. 

As with most of our spotlights, there’s not much I can say about Lily Tomlin that hasn’t already been said. 

Lily, if you ever read this, thank you. 🖤

Without further ado, here are my favorite pieces of Lily Tomlin content: 

• 9 to 5 
• The X-Files 
• The West Wing
• Orange County 
• Grace and Frankie 
• I Heart Huckabees 
• The Beverly Hillbillies 
• The Magic School Bus 
• The Incredible Shrinking Woman
• Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping movies we’re making gay into the ol’ VCR. 

Before we begin, I feel like I should provide a little context. 

One of my friends and I used to play a game we’d call But Make It Gay where we would each pick movies and then twist the storyline to be more LGBTQIA+ focused. 

For example, take The Princess Bride. 

Instead of Westley, the character would be named Winnie, and she and Buttercup would be in love. Additionally, Fezzik would be a bear, and Prince Humperdinck would become Princess Humperdinck. You get the picture. 

Now, I want to make a couple of things clear: 

First and foremost, I’m queer. I’m not here to make fun of the LGBTQIA+ community. This is all done in good fun, and I also think it shows how easy it is to create queer storylines. I know that major studios are often hesitant to greenlight queer projects, and I hope this shows a) how a lot of content already has queer undertones and b) that adding queer characters and storylines to content doesn’t come from some nefarious agenda. 

Secondly, I’m not doing this with any children’s movies only because I’m probably going to make some references that aren’t appropriate. I 100% agree that children’s content should include LGBTQIA+ characters, and I applaud those that do. 

Alrighty, that should do us for disclaimers and introductions. 

Without further ado, let’s play But Make It Gay with these four movies: 

Practical Magic 

Okay, picture it. Aunt Francis and Aunt Jet are lesbians who take in their two nieces after their parents die. While one niece, Gillian, is a proud pansexual, the other, Sally, is closeted. After Sally’s husband dies, and she rescues Gillian from an abusive partner, Sally finds herself having feelings for Gerri Hallet, the female detective trying to find Gillian’s partner. Embracing your magic can also serve as a parallel for coming out. It’s perfect. 

Scream 

Scream already has some queer undertones, so I don’t believe this one is as big of a stretch. Let’s make Dewey a butch lesbian who falls for the femme Gale. Also, I think it would be badass if Sid was nonbinary. Let’s also cut the ambiguity and make it obvious that Stu and Billy are in a relationship. Ghostface is also totally a pillow princess. 

You’ve Got Mail 

I’m going to make one joke, and I promise I won’t make any more. Here goes: More like You’ve Got Femail, amirite? I’m so sorry. 

This one truly writes itself. Joe Fox becomes Joanna “Jo” Fox. She falls in love with the beautiful and quirky Kathleen Kelly in a queer chatroom. Kathleen and her boyfriend are on the rocks, and Jo and her girlfriend are two seconds away from a breakup. Jo and Kathleen unknowingly fall in love, and they inevitably wind up together. I think it would be incredible to make Kathleen Kelly a trans woman and cast Holland Taylor as Jo’s mother as well. 

Casablanca 

I would absolutely love to see a classic movie like Casablanca recreated to be LGBTQIA+-centric. I would love for Rick to be played by a trans man actor, and I would love for the setting to be an LGBTQIA+-friendly club. There’s a huge opportunity to showcase drag artists, and RuPaul could even play a character. 

I also think this storyline could be spun to provide social commentary on how the LGBTQIA+ community is being persecuted. Finally, for some reason, Renee Rapp is Ilsa in my head? We clearly have some things to work through, but I think there are some good bones here. 

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite queer horror movies into the ol’ VCR. 

I’ve touched on this before, but the horror genre and LGBTQIA+ community have always gone hand-in-hand. 

I’m going to make a bold statement, but I stand by it: 

You can’t love horror and not support the LGBTQIA+ community. 

So many of your favorite horror directors, actors, screenwriters, etc…are queer. 

So many of the storylines you’ve come to know and love have queer undertones. 

So many of your favorite horror shows have queer representation. 

In honor of Pride month, I’ve decided to highlight 20 of my favorite queer horror movies. 

I have SO MANY more, but I had to cut myself off because I just kept adding more and more movies to the list. 

If you’re looking for more recommendations, I highly recommend giving queer and/or LGBTQIA+ movies a Googs. 

Alrighty, that should do us for an introduction. 

Without further ado, here are 20 of my favorite LGBTQIA+/LGBTQIA+-coded horror movies: 

• May 
• Slay 
• Spiral 
• Super Hot 
• Black Swan 
• Knife + Heart
• All About Evil  
• Jennifer’s Body
• You’re Killing Me 
• I Saw the TV Glow
• Fear Street Trilogy
• Psycho Beach Party 
• Death Drop Gorgeous 
• It’s A Wonderful Knife
• Daughters of Darkness 
• The Last Thing Mary Saw
• Rocky Horror Picture Show
• The Gay Bed and Breakfast of Terror 
• Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge 
• Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker (aka Night Warning)

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping Till Nowak’s The Centrifuge Brain Project into the ol’ VCR. 

Now, I’ll admit that I was late to The Centrifuge Brain Project. In fact, I hadn’t heard of it at all until it came up in a YouTube video that I naturally can’t find now. 

Released all the way back in 2011, The Centrifuge Brain Project was ahead of its time. And, I think its influence on horror ARGs like Liminal Land is clear. 

Video source: Kurzfilm Agentur Hamburg

Presented as a documentary, Dr. Nick Laslowicz (Leslie Barany) walks us through a series of experiments camouflaged as amusement park rides. These physics-bending rides were designed to essentially test stamina and potentially expand the human mind. 

Dr. Laslowicz’s company, the Institute for Centrifugal Research, began building and creating rides in the late 70s, and they’re truly WILD. 

I rest my case 

I love this short for a few reasons. 

First and foremost, it seems like it was plucked right from PBS. They play everything so straight. Additionally, all of the visual components could be placed in content today, and we wouldn’t bat an eye, which is highly impressive, considering this short is almost 13-years-old. 

Secondly, I learned in my research that Leslie Barany apparently ad-libbed a lot of his lines and put his own direction and spin on scripted lines. As someone who’s a stickler for dialogue, I can’t rave enough about how natural everything sounds. 

Finally, in my opinion, I believe The Centrifuge Brain Project has served as the inspiration for many a horror ARG/analog horror series. I can think of so many projects that utilize the same tone and interview style. 

Video source: Till Nowak

I might’ve been late to the game on The Centrifuge Brain Project, but I’m so glad I found my way here. 

It’s so innovative, and knowing everything I know about horror ARGs and analog horror series just makes it all the more impressive. 

If you’re a fan of Liminal Land or the analog horror series we cover here on B Movies, definitely give this one a shot. 

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite LGBTQIA+ movies into the ol’ VCR. 

I’ve said this before, but Pride is seriously one of my favorite times of the year. 

There was a time in my life, even after I’d come out, where I wouldn’t have been as vocal about my sexuality as I am now. 

That may be hard to believe, but it’s true. 

I was worried about what people I liked would think because I sometimes date cis, straight men. 

I was scared that I wasn’t straight enough or queer enough. 

But, over the years, I’ve learned to be loud and proud about who I am. 

I don’t try to hide my sexuality nor do I apologize for it. 

However, I know this isn’t a possibility for everyone. I know some people can’t come out or are afraid to come out. 

I want you to know that you don’t have to come out before you’re ready. You’re still part of the community, no matter what. 

If you can’t come out right now, I’m so sorry. I wish that you can one day find a safe space with an accepting community where you feel comfortable. 

Additionally, if you’re an ally, and someone comes out to you, DO NOT out that person to other people. Just support them and thank them for confiding in you. 

I digress. 

I’ve chosen 10 of my favorite LGBTQIA+ movies, and, boy howdy, was it hard to leave it at 10. 

I kept picking and prodding this list, but I finally had to let it go. 

Just know that I have sooooo many more than this. 

Alrighty, that should do us for introductions. 

Here are 10 of my favorite LGBTQIA+ movies: 

• Crush
• Bottoms
• Fire Island
• Challengers 
• The Half Of It
• All Of Us Strangers 
• Call Me By Your Name
• But I’m A Cheerleader 
• Portrait of a Lady on Fire 
• Hedwig and the Angry Itch 

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite music videos into the ol’ VCR. 

I honestly LOVE doing these favorite lists. 

Not only are they a way for me to share some of my favorite things with all of you, but it’s also a way for me to revisit some of my favorite things that I haven’t watched in a while. 

When I was growing up, I loved watching music videos. 

Hell, there are times to this day that my friends and I will still watch music videos. 

Being ever the cinephile, I see music videos as short films, and I just think there’s something really special about them. 

I digress. 

You’re going to notice two things about this list: 

1. It’s very clear I grew up in the aughts. 
2. It’s very clear I love horror. 

I feel like this is all common knowledge at this point, but just in case it isn’t, there you go. 

Alrighty, that should do us for an introduction. 

Without further ado, it’s time to rock out with your blog out and enjoy 10 of my favorite music videos of all time:

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping the work of John Waters into the ol’ VCR. 

Happy Pride month, everyone! 

This month, you can expect several spotlights on LGBTQIA+ filmmakers and actors, as well as several pieces focused on LGBTQIA+ content. 

Pride is a very important month for us, and it’s honestly one of my favorite times of the year. 

I’ve been out for 11 years, and I was extremely fortunate to be accepted by my friends and KP. 

Elliott, who clearly remembers vehemently denying her own sexuality to one of her best friends in high school after her other friend innocently ‘outed’ her, now holds Pride near and dear to her heart. As a child growing up in a household that (fortunately) very much welcomed the LGBTQIA+ community, she accepted her own feelings early on, but was also afraid of things changing, somehow, if she let those feelings be known. She was afraid of being ‘titled.’ She hid crushes, kisses, hand holding, and dates from her family, and most of her friends. However, along the way, the IDGAF kicked in, and the Pride began to radiate. She still abhors being ‘titled,’ but freely tells her stories to those that listen, and will not hesitate to declare to her husband that a woman that she finds attractive could “get it.” 

We digress. 

John Waters is one of the greats. 

His impact on not only film but the queer community is incredible. 

John Waters has given us some of the most punk rock, disgusting, and groundbreaking films of all time. 

He also thrust queer icons like Divine and his cast of Dreamlanders into the spotlight as they brought all of his absurd visions to life. 

Now, I’ll admit the end of Pink Flamingos does make me queasy. 

But, Divine screaming that filth is her politics gives me life. 

I’m not the biggest fan of Cry-Baby, but I’m so glad it exists. 

My point is, John Waters has created so many iconic films that are gritty and groundbreaking and established a specific genre that influenced a lot of media we see today. 

As always, there’s not a lot more I can say that hasn’t already been said. 

John, if you ever see this, thank you so much for everything you’ve done and created. 

Without further ado, here are some of my favorite pieces of John Waters content: 

• Hairspray 
• Serial Mom
• Search Party 
• Seed of Chucky 
• Pink Flamingos  
• Female Trouble
• Cecil B. Demented
