Welcome to IN THE CAN: A QUEER CINEMA PODCAST, our time to dig into the films that shape us.
For our debut, in time for the High Homo Holiday—Halloween, we're sinking our teeth into the lesbian vampire in film: the classics, the camp, the bite, the babes. We cover Dracula's Daughter, The Vampire Lovers, The Hunger, and much more. We chat about why this figure has haunted queer cinema for so long and we even talk about 'Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma.' Listen to find out why we're discussing Camp Miasma on our lesbian vampire episode—and so much more.
Your hosts:
Derek Le Beau, the creator of Queer Cinema Archive.
Heather O. Petrocelli, the author of Queer for Fear: Horror Film and the Queer Spectator.
