In 1934, the Hays Code made it illegal to show queer characters on screen. So filmmakers hid them in horror, coded as villains, monsters and killers. Norman Bates. Freddy’s Revenge. Cruising. Decades of borrowing queer fear without ever crediting the source.
Director @troyesc ’s new film @hollowlakemovie is what happens when a gay filmmaker finally gets to tell the story himself, mess and all.
The film had its Canadian premiere at @toihorrorfest in April and screens next at Crimson Screen Horror Film Festival in Columbia, S.C. from May 15 to 17.
We traced the line from 1930s Hollywood censorship to the 2026 queer slasher, and talked to Escamalia about what changes when queer characters stop being the threat and start being the heart of the film. Full feature at the đź”— in bio.

New episode of Dark Night of the Podcast out now! Roger Conners and I break down David Fincher’s Panic Room (2002), where a home invasion turns one house into a full-on pressure cooker. With tense cat-and-mouse moments and plenty of “what would you do?” decisions, this one still packs a punch.
@troyesc and I had the chance to attend a double-screening featuring both of our films @meatthemovie and @hollowlakemovie at @toihorrorfest a couple weekends back. We very much enjoyed our time in Toronto, as you can tell!
We will be back to our regular @darknightofthepodcast schedule as of next week covering the early-2000s home invasion thriller “Panic Room” which stars one of our all time favorite lesbians, Jodie Foster.
