The Phantom of the Opera is a horror movie (feat. The Rom Complex)
<p>This week, we’re welcoming our very first guests - Sam and Shelby from The Rom Complex podcast. Because we’re gracious hosts, we let them choose the movie and they did not disappoint. It’s a musical, it’s a romance, it’s 110% a horror movie - we’re talking about THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (2004).</p> <p>From problematic age gaps (in what timeline could Patrick Wilson and Emmy Rossum be childhood sweethearts?) to a failed attempt at making Gerard Butler grotesque, this movie has all the trappings of a slasher. Masked killer, check. Obsession with an innocent ingenue, check. Characters doing the one thing that will probably get them killed, check. We’re waiting in the catacombs when you’re ready. Join us, won’t you? </p> <p>For more, find us at <a href="https://www.happilyeverslasher.com/" target="_blank">happilyeverslasher.com</a> or follow us on Instagram @happilyeverslasher (and follow @theromcomplex while you're there!)</p>

Gigli is a horror movie
<p>We didn't have a Bennifer reunion on our 2021 bingo card, but since we're here, we thought we'd use this opportunity to discuss what's often described as the "Worst Move Ever Made" – 2003's GIGLI, or as we like to call it Fragile Masculinity: The Movie. </p> <p>If there was ever a romantic comedy that was *actually* a horror movie, it’s this iconic flop that brought Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez together. Affleck plays a misogynist who refuses to believe that the object of his affection (played by JLo, duh) is a lesbian, no matter how many times she tells him. But, in his defense, the movie doesn't believe her either. It's like no one on this film saw Chasing Amy - oh wait. </p> <p>So, join us, won't you, as we travel back in time to our lord's year 2003. If anyone can find true love while making this dumpster fire of a film, we have to believe it’s the real thing. So here’s to those two crazy kids making it work in 2021. We're here for this reboot – but please, for the love of film and feminism and all things good, let's hope they don't give us a Gigli sequel.</p> <p>For more, find us at <a href="https://happilyeverslasher.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">happilyeverslasher.com</a> or follow us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/happilyeverslasher" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> @happilyeverslasher</p>

Josie and the Pussycats and They Live: Think for yourself
<p>This week, we're comparing two movies that are not discussed together nearly enough. Both are cult classics about subliminal messages in the media and the evils of mindlessly conforming to the whims of a capitalist society. But, ya know, one does it with evil aliens hell-bent on world domination and the other does it with villainous record execs and early-00s pop-punk bops. </p> <p>It's John Carpenter’s sci-fi horror classic THEY LIVE (1988) and Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont’s musical comedy JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS (2001). From the evils of capitalism to the importance of accessorizing, this episode is totally jerkin. </p> <p>So put on your magic sunglasses and limited edition cat ear headphones and join us. And don’t pay any attention to that hidden track. Happily Ever Slasher is the best podcast ever. We came here to chew bubblegum and compare movies, and– well, you get the idea. </p> <p><strong>For more, find us at </strong><a href="https://happilyeverslasher.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">happilyeverslasher.com</a><strong> or follow us on </strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/happilyeverslasher" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a><strong> @happilyeverslasher</strong></p>
