Australian filmmaker and extraordinary trans woman Alice Maio Mackay is an unstoppably anarchic punk powerhouse, pumping fiercely queer horror movies out at a rate that would make even the late, great Rainer Werner Fassbinder look a little lazy tbh. She had a double bill in last year’s MQFF program – Satranic Panic and T-Blockers – and has another wild ride ready for us in Carnage for Christmas, edited by none other than Vera Drew (The People’s Joker). Hallmark could never, as true-crime podcaster Lola (Jeremy Moineau) returns to her country town for the first time since transitioning only to Miss Marple that shit when a sick Santa-costumed serial killer lets loose on the local LGBTQIA+ community. Only the murderer picked the wrong folks to mess with, in a sass-packed slasher where the final girl and her gang fight back like it’s brat summer.
