I'm really glad I got to read this. It wasn't what I expected, but is still valuable for social commentary.
A great collection of essays, this book shows how queer people see themselves in horror movies. I thought the cover was hilarious.

It's an anthology, so essays that have appeared here and there by a wide variety of queer authors, all likening their experience with different horror movies. There's a lot to chew on here, and it's very gripping even for someone on the outside.
