Hello! This episode was recorded a couple weeks ago, but got delayed due to life just sometimes getting in the way.

This week we are finally releasing our discussion on The Purge: Anarchy (2014).

A little different than what we normally talk about, it is a film from a franchise we both really enjoy. 

We hope your October has been enjoyable and expect a special Halloween release next week, maybe with some announcements involved?

This week we are finishing up our school set series with one of the best sequel films of all time: Scream 2 (1997)

Continuing our September School Series we are discussing a film we've been wanting to do since we started: Jennifer's Body (2009)

Happy September! As we do this time of year, for this whole month we will be discussing films where school, either high school or college, feature prominently. 

First up is an often overlooked gem - Urban Legends: Final Cut (2000).

Although this film is light on actual urban legends, it has some fun things going for it and happens to be a favorite despite some pretty obvious flaws. We've been excited to do this one for a while, so we have. a lot to talk about.

Back to our regularly scheduled Ah-Ghost! Series - This week we are discussing Paranormal Activity (2007)

One of us saw this film in theaters during the height of it's popularity and the other had never seen it before, but do either of us think it is good?

For a film where nothing really happens, it seemingly scared a lot of people. Maybe it was because of how terrible of a person Micah is? Join us as we tear him apart and argue for why this demon might actually be the hero of the story.

Do you remember the hype surrounding this film when it was released? Did you see it when it first came out or later after people had already moved on? Did you find it scary? Send us a message and let us know your thoughts!

Happy birthday to one half of your favorite Scream Queen Therapists!

This week we are breaking from our Ah-Ghost! theme to cover a somewhat forgotten entry in one of our favorite franchises: Child's Play 3 (1991)

This week we are back with more ghosts as we discuss 2004's "The Grudge", based on the original Japanese film franchise "Ju-On".

With some childhood memories involving this film, it isn't quite the way we remembered it. A film with a plot almost as beige as its characters and a semi saving grace in the form of Sarah Michelle Gellar. 

How do you feel about this film? Send us your thoughts and maybe you will get a mention in an upcoming episode!

For the month of August we will be covering films featuring ghosts and hauntings in a series we like to call "Ah-Ghost Month".

This week we are discussing 2001's Thir13een Ghosts. Not your typical haunting movie, but one with a great cast and some fun scenes. 

Although there is so much more that could have been explored, you can't go wrong with a film featuring Matthew Lillard.

We're back! July is always a super busy month for us, but we should be back on a regular schedule for the rest of the year. 

This episode has some minor audio issues, so we apologize for the fact that some of the audio sounds a bit distant. 

Diving into the deep blue, this week we are discussing 47 Meters Down (2017). Touching on one of our biggest fears, the deep ocean, it's not necessarily a fun movie for us, but it is one worth talking about.

Join us as your favorite Scream Queen Therapists discuss why you shouldn't mess with the ocean or the creatures in it.

It is July! Which means our episode releases are even more sporadic than they have been. What was meant to be a 4th of July release, is coming to you a week late, but still relevant!

This week we are discussing 1997's I Know What You Did Last Summer.

Join us as we talk about how great Sarah Michelle Gellar is, the 90's teen heartthrob of it all, and why this movie might as well just be an episode of Dawson's Creek. 

We might not release as much this month due to July always being a busy month for us, but we have a few fun things planned and will be back on regular schedule come August.

This week we are doing a film that is a little different for us. Although not a horror film, it is a classic and features some iconic Scream Queens. Celebrating 25 years of pure camp, we are discussing Jawbreaker (1999).

This film is not without its issues, but from the iconic outfits to the sharp one liners, it is a great movie and delivers a fun time. 

Happy Pride Month!

This week we are joined by one of our good friends Lisa for the first time as we discuss The Babadook (2014).

Pride month is in full force, so this week we are discussing the gayest (anti-gay) horror film - A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985).

Although we both find this film iconic and fun, it has a lot of issues with the way it handles its queerness, even if it was the 80s. 

Join us as we break down the queer not so subtext and dive into the ridiculousness that this film presents.

It's almost Pride month! While Scream Queen Therapy celebrates Pride every day, we do like to give a little bit more focus to the queer horror films that help inspire and drive the genre.

This week we are kicking off Pride a bit early and winding down our focus on motherhood with a true parenting classic: Seed of Chucky (2004)

From the gift that is Jennifer Tilly - to the introduction of the queer icon Glen/Glenda (GG), this wild film is a masterpiece.

Sometimes a film comes along and you think to yourself "I am so glad this movie was made" - this is not one of those films. This week we are discussing Friday the 13th (2009) - a film that is both a remake and a sequel, but also a reimagining? 

From the bland characters, to Jason's apparent superpowers, we have a lot to break down. 

Join us as we go back to Camp Crystal Lake to experience another entry in a franchise that is still trying to find it's identity to this day.

This week we are joined by a real life mother to cover a classic motherhood film: 1994's Serial Mom.

Our friend Marya joins us to discuss the wackiness, the pastel fantasy, and the overall greatness that is John Waters.

Happy Friday! Knowing that we wouldn't be able to release a new episode next week and with so much to say, this week we are presenting you part one of our two part discussion on 2023's Evil Dead Rise.

Bridging the gap between our Good For Her series with a celebration of the upcoming Mother's Day Holiday - this film has a little of both.

This week we are doing our first ever listener suggestion! As a part of our Good For Her series, we will be discussing 2015/16's "The VVitch".

A first time watch for both of us, this was definitely a film worth watch, but we have some opinions to share.

Join us as we break down religious trauma, Black Phillip, if this film truly classifies as "Good For Her" , and the likely unintentional camp scattered throughout an otherwise bleak film.

As you may have noticed, we disappeared for a while and did not complete our plans to do Good For Her films during Women's History Month. Due to life events, we were forced on hiatus, but we are back.

This episode was recorded back in mid March and not everything in our "What's Making You Scream" is quite relevant anymore, but we are happy to finally bring you the first in our now belated Good For Her Horror Film Series: Ready or Not (2019)

This film is a favorite of ours - so join us as we cheer on our lead character Grace - played by the wonderful Samara Weaving - and discuss generational trauma, how awful rich people can be, and dealing with In Laws.

This week we hope your Valentine's Day was less bloody than the one in 2009's  "My Bloody Valentine 3D".

This film probably should never have been made, but as with the case with many early 2000's horror films, there are still fun things to find in it. 

Join us as we determine how inconsequential Valentine's Day really is to this film and why so much of this doesn't work.

Dating is a nightmare and this week are diving in to horrors that can come along with it as we discuss 2022's "Fresh".

Watch out for the red flags and prepare for Valentine's Day with your favorite Scream Queen Therapists.

Season two soft launch! This was meant to be our New Years episode, but due to life we were delayed in posting. 

Join us as we unpack the truly uncomfortable film “Sissy” (2022).

From unresolved trauma to antagonistic friends, this film is all about trying to start fresh, which is what New Years is for a lot of people, so it felt fitting for the occasion.

We're baaaaaack. Well, kind of.

In honor of the Holiday season, we bring you a very unhinged X-Mas Special. 

Grab your flesh cookies, cover your eyes, and keep your family close as we discuss a film that is almost as much fun as it is complete trash: Black Christmas (2006). 

We hope your Holidays have less trauma than this film does and we can't wait to show you what we have in store for season two. Scream Queen Therapy will be back with regular episodes in the New Year!

Prepare for the second half of our discussion on possibly the best film in the Child's Play franchise: Bride of Chucky.

We're back and excited to celebrate Spooktober with you! 

This week we are discussing the absolutely ridiculous "Idle Hands" (1999).

A dirty and bloody Devon Sawa (our favorite honorary Scream Queen), Stoner zombies, a devil possessed hand manicure, Jessica Alba as the "perfect" 90s teen dream girl - this film has everything and we can't help but love this slice of nostalgia.

After a week off, we are back with an extra special episode in celebration of the 25th anniversary of 1998's "Urban Legend".

Actually on schedule this week we are discussing 1987's "Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night 2" aka Prom Night 2: Hello Mary Lou. - A film that has nothing to do with its predecessor and is pure camp. 

We dive in to the many iconic queer characters who never get to be queer, the dangers of teen pregnancy (as told by this film), and so much more.

As summer winds down and children go back to school, for the month of September we are covering horror films with a focus on or heavy use of a school location. We have a lot to say this week in an extra long episode as we unpack 2005's "Cry_Wolf".

A film that was widely unliked and encompasses some of the best and worst things about the early 2000's - We have mixed feelings as well, but overall actually enjoy this film.

From the wickedness of Lindy Booth's iconic Dodger to the early warnings about misuse of technology, we cover it all. Get ready to play a lying game and join us for another session of Scream Queen Therapy.

Summer is almost over and we are heading in to the woods for one last trip. This week we are talking about 2003's "Wrong Turn". 

While most of this episode is just us fawning over Eliza Dushku, this is honestly a fun early 2000's horror film that we are excited to share with you.

This week to continue our Summer inspired horror film series we are discussing 2015's "The Final Girls".

Join us as we get sucked in to the fictional 1986 film Camp Bloodbath along with some semi dull main characters and a commentary (?) on the idea of a final girl.

Campy, heartfelt, sometimes on the verge of problematic, and rarely that scary - this is still a fun summer film and we are excited to share our thoughts with you.

Grab some popcorn and try not to get trapped in an 80's horror film - or do, that could be fun.

Your favorite slasher villains are back as Scream Queen Therapy dives in to 2003's "Freddy Vs. Jason".

From Kelly Rowland's questionable acting, to epic slasher fight scenes - this film has a lot we had to talk about, so this episode may be a little long, but we believe this gem deserves it.

This week we have a lot to unpack as Scream Queen Therapy dives in to 1983's Sleepaway Camp.

Celebrating 40 years this November, this film is something else. Both highly talked about and extremely controversial, it is one we have been wanting to discuss for a while. 

From the queer panic of it all, to the things we actually enjoy. Join us on a trip to Camp Arawak and get ready for a summer you will never forget.

From the horrible Michael mask, the erasure of Jamie Lloyd, and the lack of character development - we dive in to the good and the very bad that comes along with one of the first Legacy Sequels.

Disclaimer: This episode is really gay.

This week as a part of our Pride series, we are discussing 1987's "The Lost Boys" directed by Joel Schumacher.
