Ep 396: It Came from Out of the closet - The Queer Relationship with Horror

Synopsis

It's October which means two things: Hallowe'en and the Dragons' traditional month long extravaganza of spooky episodes. Heading up the spookathon, Jules and Madeleine take a look at why so many horror films contain queer subtext or are fictional pieces which are easy for LGBTQ people to identify with. Some of this connection is positive and some is less so, but the fascination is real. The dragons look at why that is and what exactly a queer filter can add to an understanding of the horror genre. On the slab this week - Halloween, Jennifer's Body, The Rocky Horror Picture Show and many more.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic
