The sound of crazed screaming. The smell of adrenaline-induced sweat. The sight of black leather splattered with blood. Am I describing a horror movie, or the greatest queer underground rave of all time? Maybe a little bit of both! Horror and sexuality have always been intertwined; no one understands this more than the luminaries responsible for these all-time queer greats. After all, what’s campier than blood and body parts flying around? According to these films, nothing! In celebration of the subgenre, here are the 10 best queer horror films of all time.
I Saw The TV Glow
(A24)Directed by Jane Schoenbrun, I Saw The TV Glow is a masterclass in queer coming-of-age terror. Beginning in the 1990s, the film follows ostracized teens Owen and Maddy, who bond over their mutual love of a late-night TV series called The Pink Opaque. After Maddy inexplicably disappears without a trace, Owen is forced to return to a boring, humdrum life—until Maddy returns to town almost a decade later. She’s convinced that their favorite TV show was more fact than fiction, and that the past happened differently than they remember, and that their present existence is a lie. In a stellar send-up of the “bury your gays” trope, Maddy tells Owen that the only way they can discover the truth is by burying themselves alive. A nostalgia-drenched trans allegory, I Saw The TV Glow is about the terrifying choice that genderqueer people are forced to make: live authentically in a queer-hostile world, or dig a grave for their true selves and conform. According to I Saw The TV Glow, the latter choice is where the true horror lies.
