I'm back to working on The Guide to Lost Gay Cinematic Characters 3. If anyone has a favorite horror or f/sf film and would like to know who the queer character is, comment with the film title (the movie must be older than 1986). A lot of the famous flicks have already been covered. So try B-movies.

Actually, a more apt era would be 19th or 20th century France or 20th century America.

I have a couple openings in a historical horror anthology. Pays professional rates but would need the story in mid-March. Reply if you are interested.
