Once upon a time...three handsome and available Queenz got together to talk about a movie.

Come listen as we put the fairy in fairy tale.

I'm joined this episode by TYLER JENSEN and ROMAN CHIMIENTI, the co-directors of SCREAM, QUEEN! MY NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, to dig into STUART GORDON's bloody bedtime story, DOLLS.


A ragtag group of lost travelers takes shelter from a storm by spending the night in a secluded mansion owned by a seemingly kindly toymaker, his wife and their army of bloodthirsty dolls.


You can expect:


-Wicked stepmothers

-Ugly stepsisters

-A handsome bear prince

-A bashed Bunty

-Rampaging teddies

-Hairy nip slips

-and Truly Terrible Turbans

DOLLS was directed by STUART GORDON and stars STEPHEN LEE, CARRIE LORRAINE, CAROLYN PERDIE GORDON, IAN PATRICK WILLIAMS, GUY ROLFE, HILLARY MASON, BUNTY BAILEY and CASSIE STUART

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.
