ScreamQueenz is still on hiatus, so please enjoy this Flashback to April 1, 2016 - Episode #147 on MUTE WITNESS with special guests CHRYSTEN PEDDIE and DAN COHEN from KILLING YOUR DARLINGS.

While working on a low-budget horror film shooting in Moscow, a mute American special effects artist gets locked inside the dilapidated movie studio after hours. While trapped inside she stumbles across a snuff film being shot and witnesses a real murder. Can she escape the dark, deserted studio without alerting the killers? And if she does, will anyone believe her?

MUTE WITNESS is a masterclass in nail-biting suspense, so trust nothing.

Trust no one.

And most of all...don't believe your eyes!

MUTE WITNESS will be available to stream on Shudder starting on April 1st!

Written & directed by ANTHONY WALLER.

Starring MARINA ZUDINA, FAY RIPLEY, EVAN RICHARDS and OLEG JANKOWSKI.

Dive into the archives with ScreamQueenz Classics, curated by Patrick K. Walsh. This podcast serves as the central hub for a fascinating collection of shows, all exploring horror through a distinctly queer lens. Think of it as your weekly appointment with the strange and the spooky from decades past. You'll find yourself immersed in retrospectives like DAMN YOU UNCLE LEWIS, which meticulously unpacks the cult TV series *Friday the 13th: The Series*. Another show in the rotation, IT CAME FROM THE 70s, resurrects the unique charm and terror of made-for-television horror movies from the disco decade. For long-time fans and newcomers alike, SCREAMQUEENZ RESURRECTION offers a treasure trove of vintage conversations from the network's first groundbreaking decade. This ever-growing library, known as the ScreamQueenz Podiverse, is proudly noted as the first of its kind. New installments from these various series drop every Friday, rotating to keep the content fresh. With plans to expand the roster with more shows in 2026, this podcast is a living, breathing archive for anyone passionate about the intersections of television, film history, and queer perspectives on classic horror. It's less about simple reviews and more about deep, affectionate excavation.
