<p>A list I've been compiling over the years depicting different forms of queer women in horror (with the occasional genre-blurring). The films listed feature both <b>subtextual</b> and <b>blatant</b>, textual queerness with a focus on contemporary horror. While I do think there is a difference between <i>lesbian</i> <i>horror</i> and lesbians <i>in</i> horror, this list contains both forms of representation. <br />You can follow my Instagram account, <a href="https://instagram.com/lezzie_borden?utm_medium=copy_link" rel="nofollow">Lezzie Borden</a>, for more lesbian horror! Xo<br />So far I've included notes for the following films:<br />•<i>Pandora's Box</i> (1929)<br />• <i>Cat People</i> (1942)<br />•<i>The Curse of the Cat People (1944)</i><br /><i>•The Birds </i>(1963)<br />•<i>The Last House on the Left </i>(1972)<br />•<i>Ernest Scared Stupid </i>(1991)<br />• <i>Black Christmas </i>(1974)<br />• <i>Saw</i> (2004)</p>
Pride Unprejudiced: LGBTQ+ Cinema
<p>Stepping out of the celluloid closet, LGBTQ+ representations in cinema have become increasingly robust, diverse, and multidimensional. From intimate character studies to boldly experimental features, the eclecticism of queer cinema not only illuminates the richness of our collective human experience but also daringly subverts filmmaking conventions. Just like the delightfully broad spectrum of genders and sexualities, cinematic renderings of queer experiences are cultural mosaics that rise above attempts at classification and categorization. Reflecting this formal dynamism, our electric offering of LGBTQ+ cinema is a celebration of queer artistry and history, spotlighting urgent social issues and the sheer pleasure of unapologetic queer joy.</p><p>Stream your country's selection <b><a href="http://mubi.com/specials/lgbtq" rel="nofollow">here</a></b>.</p>
<p>explicit and subtext. sapphic movie ≠ romance. sapphic movie = sapphic themes and characters.</p>
<p>A list of queer horror movies I’ve watched. There has to be an explicitly queer character(s). It cannot be homophobic / transphobic / misogynistic, etc. Definitely taking suggestions. This list also includes shorts and miniseries.<br />While I appreciate queer subtext in movies, there are plenty of lists out there which fulfill that need. <br /> I am updating the list regularly. If you check the list view, each movie contains a note with a description of why it's on the list and any content warnings. You can find the watchlist <a href="https://letterboxd.com/nerdy_ninja/list/queer-horror-watchlist/" rel="nofollow">here</a>.</p><p>Representation matters.</p><p>Ranking is according to my enjoyment which, changes regularly.</p>
<p>a very loose list of films with lgbt themes by filmmakers working in a language other than english<br />includes only films with a rating above 3.0</p>
<p>The best of LGBTQ+ films from all over the world throughout history. <br />Feel free to recommend more films I should add to the list. :P</p>
Modernity and digitalization equal loneliness and decay (?)
<p>This is continuous work in progress.</p><p>Initially the list's title referred to a major theme in the oeuvres of both Edward Yang and Olivier Assayas.</p><p>Later on I took my selection much broader.</p>
No Plot Just Vibes (complimentary)
<p>Movies where the plot is either minimalist or does not follow a traditional Hollywood story instead delving into surrealism, slice of life character study etc. Either way the focus is more on the visuals, music and overall atmosphere than a traditional Hollywood narrative.</p>
<p>movies i’ve watched that have sapphic characters or a sapphic plot<br />(updates)</p>
<p>a collection of short films</p>
<p><i>All these teenagers are gonna come in for their queer horror, and it won't be there for them</i></p><p>(Not a complete master list, simply those I've seen. Cross referenced with <a href="https://boxd.it/1tO2Y" rel="nofollow">this list</a>.)</p>
