Dragging Horror Out of the Closet

It’s Pride season and on this episode of CREATURES OF THE NIGHT, the intersection of queerness and horror is explored and celebrated. Special guest, subject of the award-winning documentary SCREAM, QUEEN! MY NIGHTMARE ON ELM STRET and star of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 2: FREDDY'S REVENGE, Mark Patton joins us for a fascinating conversation about the 1980’s, Hollywood, horror and healing. We discuss Queer coding, the Hays Code and the outrageous film THE OLD DARK HOUSE. Our Haunting of History takes us through the dreamscape and into the Twilight Zone!
