Announcing ‘Micro Queers’: A Weekly Discussion of Queer Horror Shorts!

The Horror Queers have been around for almost 3 years (first in article form, then in podcast form), and one of the goals we had in creating the podcast was not only to analyze various horror films through a queer lens, but also to help amplify queer voices in the horror genre.

Now we’re expanding that mandate to include queer voices working in the short film sector, with a new weekly segment called Micro Queers. Beginning today, we’re releasing a new minisode (roughly 15-20 minutes in length) every Friday that examines a horror short film that is freely available to the public and includes either queer content or is made by a creator that identifies as queer.

To kick this new series off, we’re discussing Brazilian genre director Maria Alice Arida’s film Instinct (click to view the short or watch it below), which chronicles the dangerous attraction between older gallery owner Isabelle and provocative new performance artist Camila. Be sure to watch the 18-minute short before you listen to our discussion!


If you would like to submit a short, simply send the link and a brief description of it to horrorqueers@gmail.com. If your short has made it into one or more festivals, be sure to include that information in your email.

As mentioned above, to qualify for coverage, both of the following must apply:

  1. The short must be freely available to the public (i.e. Vimeo or YouTube).
  2. The horror short must feature queer content and/or have a queer creator.

We’re extremely excited to start this new venture, which has been one of the most rewarding experiences of our tenure at Bloody Disgusting. Thank you all for sticking with us over the years and we hope that you enjoy “Micro Queers.”
