Dracmorda and Swanthula Boulet, better known as the Boulet Brothers, have been long-standing pioneers of the alternative drag scene and patrons of all things spooky. Their show, The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula, has created a platform for all manner of drag artists to show their art. After five regular seasons, the Resurrection special, and the returnee Titans season, the show has grown into a massive celebration of the spooky, the punk, and the unapologetically queer.

Steven Spielberg's Jaws was a blockbuster success. However, its sequels slowly dropped in quality to the point of Universal abandoning the franchise.

Editor’s note: This review contains mentions of suicide. The simultaneous fear and insatiable curiosity about what happens after death fuels art to this day. There are innumerable interpretations of Heaven and Hell. But the secret third option of Purgatory rarely receives the same kind of dedicated love, apart from the poet Virgil, No Exit, and The House that Jack Built.

Director Mike Flanagan has taken on the Gothic tales of our nightmares with his series The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting Of Bly Manor. His adaptations of Shirley Jackson and Henry James, respectively, are heart-wrenching yet utterly terrifying tales of betrayal, love, and what lurks after death. However, Flanagan breaks this pattern with his latest for Netflix, The Fall Of The House Of Usher, his take on not just one work of Edgar Allan Poe, but the writer’s entire body of work.

I find that the most difficult films to critique are those that don’t make a profound impact as really good or really bad. The Puppetman gets more right than wrong but it still exists in that grey area. It’s rough around the edges, featuring pieces of an interesting story at its core. But Brandon Christensen’s latest feature is bogged down by pacing issues, performances that don’t always connect, and a lack of insight regarding the central evil at play.

In its fourth season, Creepshow evidently isn’t ready to do away with routine. The majority of these new stories include the same old act as before: hapless characters get caught up in uncanny situations, and then are forced to suffer the cruelty of fate and/or the consequences of their own misbegotten actions. The series has this recipe down pat, but as a reminder, horror anthology shows don’t always get more than one season, much less four.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that Alice Maio Mackay’s directorial career is skyrocketing. In just three years she’s released three features, each deconstructing a portion of the queer or trans experience with equal parts heart and wit. So Vamtackles the monstrous “othering”, Bad Girl Boogeyuses supernatural horror to examine how queer suffering is ignored en masse, and T-Blockersturns toxic sludge into a metaphor for transphobic vitriol.

Welcome to The Overlooked Motel, a place where under-seen and unappreciated films are given their moment in the spotlight. I hope you enjoy your stay here and find the accommodations to be suitable. Now, please take a seat and make yourself comfortable; I have some misbehaving guests to ‘correct.’ It pains me that no one ever seems to talk about the 2008 horror comedy The Cottage.

Since the release of Universal Pictures’ Dracula in 1932 starring Bela Lugosi, vampires have been depicted as sexy, mysterious, and downright beautiful, a portrayal continuing through the 1980s with vampires like Grace Jones’ Katrina in Vamp and The Lost Boys, advancing into the 1990s with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt’s turn in Interview With The Vampire and David Boreanaz as Angel in Buffy The Vampire Slayer right up until the Cullen clan in the Twilight series.
