Diving Into Filmmaking: Contemporary Horror Films and the Normalization of LGBTQA+ Characters
Focus Research Paper
Judith Butler’s critical theory book, “Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity,” identifies that the construct of the gendered body allows the consequences of sex to be set in place. Gendered representation physically is a performance put on by the social constructs created around each ‘defined’ gender. (Female/Male) Butler aims to break away the ties between sex and gender to allow flexibility to relax in. The idea of identity as free and flexible and gender as a performance, not an essence, is one of the foundations of Queer Theory.
​
Using this as the foundational element of research, Kim deepens the intellectual look at Queer Horror and how the women of Horror have the ability to represent the LGBTQA+ community in a positive light.
