Do you have any recommendations for gay horror?
*Cheshire cat smile* I do yeah. First off I highly suggest the works of gay film directors who worked in horror: James Whale, Joel Schumacher, Clive Barker, Jane Schoenbrun, Don Mancini, etc. Even if there aren't always explicit gay characters there are queer themes in their films and they are worth examining. Ok list time:
The Haunting (1963)
The Vampire Lovers (1970)
Shiver of the Vampires (1971)
Daughters of Darkness (1971)
The Velvet Vampire (1971)
The Blood Spattered Bride (1972)
Alucarda (1977)
Cruising (1980)
Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker (1981)
The Living Dead Girl (1982)
Tenebre (1982) [The feature film debut of trans actress Eva Robin's]
The Hunger (1983)
Gothic (1986)
Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989)
Poison (1991)

Stage Fright (2014)
Good Manners (2017)
Thelma (2017)
Knife + Heart (2018)
What Keeps You Alive (2018)
Bit (2019)

Saint Maud (2019)

As always, horror comes with triggers and some of these do have big homophobia warnings (Butcher, Baker especially).
