212. Creepshow 2 with special guest Billy Roach

Movies That Made Us Gay

"What happened, Mrs. Lansing?" "I-I ran over some guy, and over, and over, and over, and-" We watched Creepshow 2 (1987) with our spookiest straight friend Billy Roach and you'll have to excuse us... our Amazon carts may or may not be filled with yellow swim briefs. We love an anthology horror movie from the '80s and who better to get your material from than the master himself Stephen King. Okay maybe we like some of the stories more than others but let's face it - "Old Chief Wood'nhead" just doesn't have nearly enough straight boys in Speedos to hold our attention. While we're on the subject - "The Raft" is your favorite segment right? Okay the mysterious goo/blob moster in the lake isn't the scariest thing commited to film but Deke (Paul Satterfield) and Randy (Daniel Beer) in those swim trunks really are worth the price of admission. We would be remiss if we didnt mention "The Hitch-hiker" and the iconic performance from Lois Chiles as the neurotic hit and run driver Annie Lansing. This entire final segment is pure high-camp and once you get past how kooky the premise is - it's actually pretty creepy. Speaking of creeps - thats horror makeup icon himself Tom Savini as "The Creep" bookending the movie. This entry may not be at the top of everyone's list of favorite horror movies, but it's got that Stephen King '80s cred and it's sort of an "if you know, you know" sort of thing. Go water your Venus Flytraps and strap in. Oh and one more thing... "Thanks for the ride, lady!"
