Queer Horror: The Ifs, Ands, and Butts – Virtual Class
Drag clown Carla Rossi presents a one-of-a-kind evening surveying the subgenre of queer horror in film and pop culture from Nosferatu to Child’s Play and more.
October 26, 2021
Queer Horror: The Ifs, Ands, and Butts offers a survey of the topic in film and pop culture, presented with the signature i̶n̶c̶o̶m̶p̶e̶t̶e̶n̶c̶e̶ one-of-a-kind expertise belonging to drag clown Carla Rossi, hostess of Queer Horror—the only LGBTQ+ horror screening series in the country—at Portland, Oregon’s Hollywood Theatre. Utilising her skills as a horror hostess, unproven educator, mistaken entertainer, and frightening clown herself, Rossi reaches across films like Nosferatu to the Child’s Play franchise to demonstrate that not only is queer horror not a subgenre, but that the overarching genre of horror itself is and always has been intrinsically queer.
Zoom class details will be emailed to ticket purchasers shortly before the scheduled event.
