EP54: "I'm a murderer, not a monster:" Chucky and Queer Theming
Manage episode 443985827 series 3512302
What if an 8-bit Rocky Horror video game unlocked a retro adventure but was restricted by platform exclusivity? We dive into the possibilities of such a game and lament the barriers that may keep fans from experiencing it.
Our conversation shifts to the cancellation of the Chucky TV series after its third season, sparking a deeper discussion on the cultural impact of prematurely axed queer-themed shows like "Our Flag Means Death." We celebrate Chucky’s commitment to LGBTQ+ representation, exploring its groundbreaking critique of homophobia and its portrayal of marginalized experiences within the horror genre.
