THE INVISIBLE MAN (1933) // Queer Directors

Published on: 3rd June, 2026

You already know what time of the year it is, Pride Month baby! We're kicking things off with The Invisible Man directed by queer godfather James Whale. We discuss Claude Raines' iconic vocal performance, themes of queer repression, and how the incredible effects still dazzle us 93 years later. This movie will never fade away!

About the Podcast

Specter Cinema Club
An exploration of the sub-genres that make up our favorite horror movies!
The ghosts of your horror movie club explore a different sub-genre each month! Featuring creators from the spooky community, stoner filmmaker DeVaughn Taylor & film journalist Garrett McDowell discuss the recurring motifs of various sub-genres and what makes the best genre films work. New episodes every Tuesday!


NOTE: We recommend starting at Season 2 (Ep60) as that's when Garrett joined and began our current format. Season 1 was the experimental phase and before DeVaughn got better at editing haha

NOTE: The first 99 episodes, we were under the "Bloody Blunts" name. Season 3 is where we continue on as "Specter Cinema", though the show itself does not change.
