   Left of Str8 Show Interviews: Sam Irvin on Horror, Brian De Palma, Dante’s Cove & Queer Hollywood

   We kick off "Spooky Season 2026" our month long tribute to all things Horror and Witchy, with one of our favorite returning guests, Sam Irvin. On this episode of Left of Str8 Show: Interviews, Scott Fullerton welcomes acclaimed director, writer, film historian, and author Sam Irvin for a fascinating journey through Hollywood history, horror filmmaking, queer representation, and decades of unforgettable storytelling. Sam shares stories from the beginning of his career working with Brian De Palma, reflects on legendary horror figures including Vincent Price and Christopher Lee, and discusses how the genre has evolved from the era of classic horror icons to today’s filmmakers and performers. We also explore the groundbreaking importance of Dante’s Cove in LGBTQ+ television history, Sam’s work surrounding Frankenstein: The True Story, and how queer filmmakers and creative communities helped expand what audiences could see on screen. Sam opens up about his directing philosophy, the realities of modern filmmaking, the importance of preserving Hollywood history, and why archival work and film preservation matter just as much as creating something new. For horror fans, film-history buffs, LGBTQ+ audiences, aspiring directors, and anyone who loves behind-the-scenes Hollywood stories, this conversation is packed with movie history, creative insight, and a lifetime of cinematic memories. 💥 Watch Left of Str8 Interviews every week for smart, funny, and heartfelt conversations with LGBTQ creatives, entertainers, and changemakers.
