i keep writing and rewriting this tweet but 2 be incomprehensible: i love lgbt themes in horror a lot! i love the idea of examining fears through metaphor! u can discuss so much w it! one day i will be able to articulate this!
like just off the top of my head, i can say & #39;jennifers body& #39; is about sexual violence, the horror of & #39;becoming& #39; a woman, of toxic friendships, the way trauma changes us; i was boring i could say & #39;its abt being boy crazy bc jennifer needs to devour boys to survive& #39; but thats.. eh
i can even flip that last point and say its abt how much pressure is put on young women to be in relationships! i havent seen the movie in a year so if i had time i could come up w more
bly manor- i love Ed& #39;s ghost as a metaphor for Dani& #39;s internalised homophobia! its not a plot hole that he disappears when Dani starts to accept herself! im very energetic at the moment!
u can do so much w & #39;monster as a metaphor for x& #39;. whats the monster? what defeats the monster? can you defeat the monster? i love lgbt themes in horror bc the truth is being lgbt can be terrifying! sometimes u feel like u ARE the monster!
end thread im out of ideas but as a scaredy pants wimp i just Love LGBT Horror Themes
