As someone who has only seen maybe 3 of the dozens of horror films referenced in this anthology (bc I’m a scaredy-cat), the queer potential of the horror genre isn’t something I had given much thought to. This collection was wonderfully written and gave me a lot to chew on! I enjoyed every single essay except “Good Guys, Dolls.”
