Do you have any recommendations for gay horror?
*Cheshire cat smile* I do yeah. First off I highly suggest the works of gay film directors who worked in horror: James Whale, Joel Schumacher, Clive Barker, Jane Schoenbrun, Don Mancini, etc. Even if there aren't always explicit gay characters there are queer themes in their films and they are worth examining.
Ok list time:
The Haunting (1963)
The Vampire Lovers (1970)
Shiver of the Vampires (1971)
Daughters of Darkness (1971)
The Velvet Vampire (1971)
The Blood Spattered Bride (1972)
Alucarda (1977)
Cruising (1980)
Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker (1981)
The Living Dead Girl (1982)
Tenebre (1982) [The feature film debut of trans actress Eva Robin's]
The Hunger (1983)
Gothic (1986)
Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989)
Poison (1991)
May (2002)
Hellbent (2004)
Seed of Chucky (2004)
All About Evil (2010)
Chillerama - I Was a Teenage Werebear segment (2011)
All Cheerleaders Die (2013)
Stage Fright (2014)
Good Manners (2017)
Thelma (2017)
Knife + Heart (2018)
What Keeps You Alive (2018)
Bit (2019)
Scream, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street (2019) [this is a documentary but I'm gonna count it!]
Saint Maud (2019)
Death Drop Gorgeous (2020)
Titane (2021)
Huesera: The Bone Woman (2022)
As always, horror comes with triggers and some of these do have big homophobia warnings (Butcher, Baker especially).
BONUS:
Shows: Penny Dreadful, Interview With the Vampire, The Exorcist, Dead Ringers, Chucky, Dragula

WATCHING
Themes regarding national tradition versus modernity, as well as the tensions between science and religion, and the failures of both.
"In Alucarda, the triumph of science or religion is turned on its head. The world in crisis defined by the unreasonable, the unexplainable, and the unsolvable is not salvaged by reason or faith."
–Film scholar Doyle Green on the film's overarching themes
Alucarda is preoccupied with themes of metal illness and the handling of it within the Catholic Church (demons, exorcism, and superstitious beliefs that were once associated with demonic possession and the victims of the church thereof).
Also it's 90 minutes of perpetual shouting and screaming, flames, blood and more screaming during the flames and blood. 😅 so be aware of your volume.
Don't go deaf on my account. Lol
