‘SCREAM’ SCREENWRER KEV WILLIAMSON CONFIRMS BILLY AND STU’S QUEER-COD RELATNSHIP WAS BASED ON REAL GAY KILLERS
A rare slasher film wh a group of entirely openly gay characters, Hellbent is an outlier of s time that’s also a fe example of a story wh queer protagonists that go beyond the tradnal “g-out” narrative. This is particularly due to s solate settg on a gay cisg beach and the e of shadow by cematography matra Claire Mathon.
Mdy beg openly queer is a ls fg character tra, which is admirable and mak Scream an antidote to the e of homosexualy as a punchle s precsor, where the character Robbie Mercer blurts that he’s gay jt to avoid Ghostface’s wrath. More fixated on his pannship wh his male partner and antagonizg a society uneasy by his mere prence, Griff is a figure wh his own queer unrcurrent like the monster Frankenste, another horror masterpiece om openly gay director Jam Whale.
It also amped up s gay-iendly mp factor wh not jt more theatril actrsg, but some queer unrton.
