Don't piss yourself while you stuff the corpses in the attic because we're having a gay old time discussing show business (the business of show) in Joshua Grannell's/Peaches Christ's 2010 horror comedy All About Evil. Joining us for the discussion is Jesse Krempel, the host of the Cult Cinema Circle podcast!Join us as we revisit this campy gem that was very difficult to find until recently. We heap all of the praise on Natasha Lyonne's absolutely unhinged lead performance, while commending Grannell on his filmmaking craft.Plus: Elvira out of drag, punny film titles, lots of Thomas Dekker worship, and wondering whether or not Trace knows the word "exorbitant."Questions?

All About Evil (2010) feat. Jesse Krempel

"Well, congratulations on getting out of the very dangerous world of haberdashery!" It's a Disco Bloodbath on the pod this week as we double featured both Party Monster movies with our friend Jesse Krempel host of the podcast Cult Cinema Circle. The documentary, or shall we say "Shockumentary" from 1998, and the 2003 film starring Macaulay Culkin, Seth Green, Chloë  Sevigny, Wilmer Valderrama, and Dylan McDermott. Michael Alig's saga of the murder in clubland always fascinated us as young gays, and spoiler alert, at least one of the two entries holds up in its revisit. Long before World of Wonder took over the queer landscape with RuPaul's Drag Race, they made a documentary that looked at the events surrounding the murder of Andre "Angel" Melendez by club promoter and all around sh*t head Micahel Alig, with the help of Robert "Freeze" Riggs that landed them both in prison for 15 years. Former child actor superstar Mac Culkin came out of his 9 year retirement to play Alig in the 2003 indie dramatization of the events. With Seth Green playing the larger than life "celebutante" James St. James, Party Monster felt like event-queer-cinema in the early '00s when represention of gay characters in film was scarse. We reflect on how suprisingly poor the 2003 theatrical version revisits. The casting of Mac and Seth (two cis hetro men) aside, did we just overlook all its flaws when first watching because we were excited for this story being told in a major movie? Topics discussed include the colorful characters chronicled in the Shockumentary, the club kids taking over '90s daytime TV, and did 2000s indie darling Chloë  Sevigny have better things she could have been doing than this thankless role? For better or for worse both Party Monsters are a unique snapshot of the club kid era of time gone by.  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

190. Party Monster with special guest Jesse Krempel

"It's not natural, is it? A girl at her age being into Mama Cass." We watched the 1996 British film Beautiful Thing with Jesse Krempel from Cult Cinema Circle. As one of the most beloved "gay" movies from the 1990s, Beautiful Thing always feels a little more special than a traditonal "coming out" story. Set around a tower block South-London apartment building  we follow Jamie (Glen Berry) and his neighbor Ste (Scott Neal) as they navigate their budding sexuality, and feelings for each other. We love this sweet movie (filled with the hits of Cass Elliot), as well as its supporting cast of characters. First there Jamie's mum Sandra (played with a spit-fire panache by Linda Henry), and her hot hippy boyfriend Tony (Ben Daniels). And we can't forget Tameka Empson scene stealing performance as Leah! We talk about first gay bar adventures, sneaking looks at gay magazines at newstands, and why this movie rises above most mediocre coming-of-age gay movies that would follow it.  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna
