Female Artillery (1973)

There’s enough evidence to insinuate that What We Do in the Shadows is intentionally queer-coded.

Based off the book of the same name, ‘The Miseducation of Cameron Post’ (2018) follows teenager Cameron Post (Chloë Grace Moretz) after she is caught being intimate with another girl and then sent away to a gay conversion camp.

In light of the trailer release for the Five Nights at Freddy's sequel, it’s due time to talk about the first movie.

The plot could’ve really been interesting if the elements of lycanthropy was integrated with perhaps the struggle of identity of being LGBTQ+. It's an experience for so many that as they’re starting to realizing their true selves, they feel like a monster, especially if they come from unsupportive homes or communities. Instead, the horror and transformation elements seem thrown in without contemplation of how this could deepen the narrative.

As a frequent “the book was better” extoller, this movie was well worth the watch. 

Black Christmas movies are few and far in between to find — so it is wonderful to see more representation on the screen just in time
