Break out your “Schizos and Serial Killers” trading cards, we watched Addams Family Values (1993) with our friend Andy Ur and we’re all Graceful, Delicate Ballerinas! As Thanksgiving movies go, this is… really the only one we could think of. This movie is full of more queer subtext than you can shake a stick at. Joan Cusack as murderous “Black Widow” Debbie Jellinsky is nothing short of iconic. Anjelica Huston is service face, face, body, face in Morticia drag and Christina Ricci very nearly steals the show as a pre-teen Wednesday revolting against her WASPy fellow campers. Keep an eye out for cameos by queer or queer-adjacent celebs like Christine Baranski, Nathan Lane, David Hyde Pierce, Cynthia Nixon and Charles Busch. Hey its Thanksgiving Day! Eat us, we make a nice buffet!
