This week on Blondehaus – I mean, er—Bloodhaus, Josh and Dru are joined by trash movie genius, Dylan Dawson! They discuss the best shot-on-video film of all time, BLONDE DEATH!!! This is a tape by James Dillinger aka queer novelist James Robert Baker. From wiki: James Robert Baker (October 18, 1947 – November 5, 1997) was an American author of sharply satirical, predominantly gay-themed transgressional fiction. A native Californian, his work is set almost entirely in Southern California. After graduating from UCLA, he began his career as a screenwriter, but became disillusioned and started writing novels instead. Though he garnered fame for his books Fuel-Injected Dreams and Boy Wonder, after the controversy surrounding publication of his novel, Tim and Pete, he faced increasing difficulty having his work published. According to his life partner, this was a contributing factor in his suicide.”
They also discuss the Frankenhooker VHS, Dylan’s wife was in House of the Devil, erotic thrillers, Triple Fisher: The Lethal Lolitas of Long Island, the novels of James Robert Baker, EZTV, The Beaver Trilogy, Guy Maddin’s Archangel, Rape of the Vampire, Freeway, Ken Russell’s Whore, My Bloody Valentine, Redneck Zombies, Henry & Glenn Forever, Angry Samoans, Boy Wonder, Tim & Pete, Sean Baker, and more!
