Celebrate 10 years of Queer Horror and 35 years of GHOST (1990) starring Academy Award nominee Demi Moore! This anniversary edition is sponsored by Double Mountain Brewery and Cidery, with a *substantial* preshow starring longtime QH alum Pepper Pepper and hosted by Portland's premier drag clown, Carla Rossi!
Is GHOST a horror movie, besides the demons and that dead guy on the train? Is GHOST a queer movie, besides that dance scene and Tony Goldwyn's face? Sure! Icon Demi Moore stars as grieving ceramicist Molly, whose husband Sam (Patrick Swayze) was killed in a mugging. When Sam's ghost finds psychic grifter Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg, in an all-time, Academy Award-winning performance), he tries to reunite with Molly and save her from his not-so-best-friend Carl (Tony Goldwyn). Forever immortalized as a McDonald's VHS release, GHOST is that rare, heartbreaking kind of '90s supernatural romantic thriller starring a Brat Packer, an action hunk, and a legendary comedian—and all brought to life by the director of AIRPLANE!
