Screaming Queenz Ep 14 - Bride of Frankenstein

"She's alive! ALIVE!" 

Queer director James Whale invited us to the wedding of the century when he brought us The Bride of Frankenstein. Theatrical, operatic, and one of the most beautifully made horror movies in history, The Bride was unapologetically gay. From its overtly camp villain Dr Pretorius to its shunned mistunderstood outcast The Monster, there was a hell of a lot for a queer audience to get their claws into, and we celebrate everything from Una O'Connor's camp turn as Minnie to Valerie Hobson's devastating maribou trim.

We do talk about the horror too. And then we take a look at Gods and Monsters, the gorgeous James Whale biopic starring Sir Ian McKellen and Brendan Fraser.

So get your best wedding frock on and we'll see you at the buffet table. Be warned though... we always die at weddings!
