## Resource

Macabre Daily has always been a champion of queer horror. We understand the power of the horror genre to offer catharsis and empowerment to marginalized communities, and we seek out opportunities to feature films that focus on the queer experience whenever we can. For Pride Month, we couldn’t simply rest on our laurels. We needed to find a way to step up our game, which is where Brian Finnerty, contributor and author of our Skeletons In The Closet column, comes in. Together with regular host and Editor-in-Chief of Macabre Daily, Matt Orozco, we reached out to some of our favorite queer filmmakers to help us instigate a Pride Month takeover of the Macabre Daily Podcast. Joined by Roger Conners, Joshua R. Pangborn, and Zack Ogle, we were so excited to dive into the topic of queer horror. These filmmakers were so generous with their time and lived experiences, sharing how their queer identities influence their work. We also dug into some of our earliest memories of linking the horror genre to our queer identity and discussed where we want to see the queer horror subgenre go in the future. They also found time to dole out some important Pride-related fashion advice to our hosts. Listen to this very special episode of the Macabre Daily Podcast below or wherever you subscribe.
