The Skeleton In The Closet: 8 LGBTQ+ Horror Films Claiming The Genre
When you think of the horror genre, the LGBTQ+ community is probably one of the last things you think of. However, horror is much more queer-coded than you may think.

A law firm faces financial problems when Karina decides to leave the firm and takes their clients with her. A young and new lawyer, Budi, tries to help lawyers Ang & Rahimin so that their firm can continue to operate. The situation becomes chaotic when a gangster boss hires them to protect his illegal operations. The Ang & Rahimin firm is a law firm owned by Ang (Rashidi Ishak) and Rahimin (Ben Amir). Budi (Daiyan Trisha) is a junior lawyer who is already stressed with the situation at the firm right from the start. This is because Karina (Nurkamelia), a brilliant lawyer there, has moved to another firm. Rahimin, on the other hand, takes on easy cases because he doesn't want to go through lengthy court proceedings. Meanwhile, Ang refuses any cases that require him to go to court because of trauma from a past case. Karina's absence affects their firm, so one day, Rahimin receives an offer from Shaukie (Wan Ellyas) to work exclusively with him for a very lucrative payment.
