Queer horror has evolved from coded characters and harmful stereotypes to stories that reflect the complexity of LGBTQ+ lives. In this video, we explore the history of queer representation in horror and how LGBTQ+ writers, directors, actors, and independent filmmakers are creating stories about identity, chosen family, discrimination, religious trauma, and survival.
Learn how queer horror is expanding LGBTQ+ representation in film, challenging outdated stereotypes, and giving queer creators the opportunity to tell more authentic stories that redefine the genre.
