Horror Queers

Copycat (1995) feat. K Lynch

Here's our Salem Horror Fest episode on Jon Amiel's vastly underrated (and under-seen) 1995 film Copycat! Joining us for the discussion is the director of the festival themselves: K Lynch! Join us as we wax poetic over the incredible performances of Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter and the implied lesbianism between their characters, raise our eyebrows at Harry Connick Jr's "squirrel covers"-obsessed serial killer, and debate whether or not killing off the only explicitly gay character is homophobic. Plus, we'll lament the fact that Copycat was released in the shadow of Se7en, which came out just a month prior. But never fear! We'll sing the film's praises and point out all the things it gets right, and why it should be remembered as a classic '90s thriller. Questions? Comments? Snark?
