what if i was a band kid.. and you were a cheerleader.. and we were on opposing schools.. and we liked each other.. and we're both girls..

not to be that one friend who's too woke but given that queerness and specifically lesbianism is such an integral part of the original fear street trilogy, sam moves to sunnyvale to escape her feelings for deena and remain closeted, cindy viewing her love for alice as part of the curse and forcing herself to be "perfect" and beat it by dating tommy, solomon's vendetta against sarah being specifically because she's gay and that being a central part of why the town persecutes them, sarah sacrificing herself for hannah and her love being so strong it literally carries through centuries, the only lesbian representation in prom queen being a very tired 'lesbian in love with her straight best friend to the point where it is her character trait' just feels like a slap in the face.

I get the point of utilising classic 80's tropes in a film set in the 1980s, but the point should be to interrogate and explore them, not to trot them out without thinking.

Shoutout to Fear Street for being the only thing I've ever seen do an honest to God hetbait. Main character shows up mentioning her ex named Sam and she sees this guy and girl together when she goes to a school event and you think the guy is her ex WRONG she's gay I want to give whoever wrote that a cookie
