Single, Out: Season 4 is out on DVD – yes, for Christ’s sake, DVD!

What? It’s 2026, and we still release films on DVD? Well, yes we do (as I’m writing this on my Remington typewriter, next to my rotary phone which is on a stack of VHS tapes.) But back to the promo: Single, Out: Season 4 is now out – yes goddammit, on DVD! This the final season of the sexy, funny and endearing Aussie series is a must for anyone who just wants to be uproariously entertained…by a movie on DVD! https://www.dvdempire.com/5070357/single-out-season-four-movie.html

No, not I’m not talking about the recent elections but the UK release of BRUTE 1976! UK’s SCENE MAGAZINE called it, “A fun slasher with shades of directors Tobe Hooper, Wes Craven and Rob Zombie flying all over the place with an added LGBTQ+ flavour…best watched with a cocktail.” Now on Amazon Prime for rental. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Brute-1976-Marcel-Walz/dp/B0DWRNFVV9/ref=sr_1_1?crid=S3FABZMD14V4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.V1CXOAqPrODB2oAhQkURVvtnN9lkLS6T_i1c3-Us8AXGjHj071QN20LucGBJIEps.ZHTmv7s01jJ1-_ePV4Ae8IVZAU3bNwqxlFL45aoCbx8&dib_tag=se&keywords=brute+1976&qid=1778255381&sprefix=brute+1976%2Caps%2C274&sr=8-1

Killer Daisy Joins an Esteemed Group of Trans Killers

Question: is it ok, in this scary Trumpian world, for a film to feature a trans person as a psychotic killer? In the new release Brute 1976, there is Daisy, an oddly cross-dressing member of a savage family. With her chandelier earrings, mischievous smile (suggesting a deranged Truman Capote), exposed prosthetic breasts and penchant for killing any unlucky soul who ventures on their family plot, she makes for quite an evil character. Yet she is far from the first trans killer. Examples are: Divine (RIP Connie and Raymond Marble, Pink Flamingos);  Norman Bates (Psycho), Buffalo Bill (Silence of the Lambs),  Bobbi (Dressed To Kill) and Angela (Sleepaway Camp) to name a few. I, personally, have no problem with Daisy. The film was directed by a gay man (Marcel Walz) and features both lesbian and gay male characters. Hey, even a nominally straight character disastrously sticks his exceptionally long hard-on through a glory hole. Let’s just say it turned me off (well for a month) from any tearoom action. For a very different kind of queer horror film, check out BRUTE 1976.
