Ep 308The Thirteenth Guest (1932) feat. Amanda Jane Stern
EPrepare to get "potted" because we're discussing not just any murder, but a good murder in Albert Ray's confusing as all get-out 1932 murder mystery comedy The Thirteenth Guest! Tagging in for the conversation is Amanda Jane Stern, the co-writer/star of the new psychosexual thriller Perfectly Good Moment.Join us as we try to figure out just what the hell is going on in this convoluted little film, which features an early Ginger Rogers performance (in a dual role, no less!). From electrified telephones to mysterious rooms without trap doors, there's just too much crammed into this film's extremely brief 69-minute runtime for it to make any kind of sense.Plus: an absolutely horrifying colorized version of the film, a brother and his "roommate," and souls that look like the inside of vinegar bottles. Oh, and who in the hell is the titular thirteenth guest???Questions? Comments? Snark?

Micro Queers: Doctor Jekyll (2023)
bonusEA contemporary trans take on Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde featuring Suzy Izzard?! We were so psyched for this one, but alas, Trace doesn't recommend and Joe is only a soft recommend.Despite strong performances, writer Dan Kelly-Mulhern doesn't do anything with the material, which results in a film that's just kinda boring.If you're looking for a better take on this material, you're better off revisiting 1971's Doctor Jekyll and Sister Hyde.
