One ticket, two horror films! Blur reality with Casey in We're All Going to the World's Fair, and seek lovely revenge in Terror, Sisters!About this Event
Trans people have always been in horror movies, but often either as corpses, fools, or monsters. Tonight, we celebrate the changing course of trans horror with two contemporary films by trans directors, both of which explore and celebrate transness as opposed to demeaning it. The films are as follows:
We're All Going to the World's Fair (dir. Jane Schoenbrun, 2022, 1h 26m) - Alone in her attic bedroom, teenager Casey becomes immersed in an online role-playing horror game, wherein she begins to document the changes that may or may not be happening to her.
Terror, Sisters! (dir. Alexis Langlois, 2019, 28m) - Today is a day like any other for Kalthoum and her girlfriends. They sip cocktails, look for sex on the Internet, impatiently wait for love and once again, endure the transphobic insults of strangers. But today it’s not going to be like that: the four transgender friends will imagine their revenge.
