A list of 55 films piled on Letterboxd, cludg The Old Dark Hoe (1932), The Bri of Frankenste (1935), Dracula's Dghter (1936), Rebec (1940) and Cat People (1942). About this list: Based on: "From 1934 until 1967, Hollywood movi were shaped by the Productn Co, otherwise known as the Hays Co. Wrten 1930, but not implemented until four years later, this set of l was generally tend to keep movi om “rptg” the people who watched them. Given that homosexualy was nsired eher a physil or psychologil malady the early 20th century, the effectively legislated any limed queer prence out of existence. While homosexualy was not explicly banned the Hays’ text, was mandated that “no picture shall be produced that will lower the moral standards of those who see . Hence the sympathy of the dience should never be thrown to the si of crime, wrongdog, evil or s.” It was also dified that only “rrect standards of life” should be prented,” and that “sex perversn or any ference to is forbidn.” In other words, for a long time, cematic queers were phed unrground, relegated to existg only subtext — and most often as villas. In orr to get queer stori onscreen, filmmakers had to fd creative ways to subvert the system. Horror films particular have ma for a fascatg se study the evolvg perceptns of queer prence; queer-horror filmmakers and actors were often forced to lean to the trope of the “predatory queer” or the “monstro queer” to claim some sense of power through visibily and blatant exprsns of sexualy. Below is a begner’s gui to the most sential queer horror of the past 90 years. It also doubl as a timele of the evolutn of queer horror: How LGBTQA them and characters went om hidg between the l movi wh “gay sensibili” the 1930s to breakg out as Pri mem almost a century later — gog om visible (lbian ghosts!) to closeted (lerally, the se of Dorian Gray) to fabuloly out (who wouldn’t have given to Cathere Denve’s Miriam Blaylock?), before fally beg allowed to exist as multidimensnal characters onscreen. From the d abomatns of Jam Whale’s taboo-skirtg films of the 1930s to the Pri reign of The Babadook, here’s our gui to queer horror cema." I may add the specific blurbs later.
