Anyways,

I LOVE when Horror gets blatantly political!

A hill I will gladly die on.

“I don’t like when horror gets political…”

HORROR IS A SUB-GENRE OF SCI-FI.

SCIENCE-FICTION.

WHICH IS INHERENTLY POLITICAL BASED ON IT’S ORIGIN IN POSING WHAT-IF QUESTIONS & SCENARIOS ABOUT OUR WORLD AND SOCIETY

As a transgender (nonbinary) fimmaker, THANK YOU
