SUMMARY:Queer Horror: Otto; or Up with Dead People
DESCRIPTION:Transgressive filmmaker Bruce LaBruce gave the zombie genre a distinctive update with Otto\, set in a not-too-distant future in which the undead have evolved the ability to speak and reason\, yet are still persecuted by the living. Sensitive Otto wanders the streets of Berlin before being recruited by eccentric filmmaker Medea Yarn for her zombie insurrection “magnum corpus” Up with Dead People. Whilst the eponymous hero struggles with unliving in the world\, LaBruce’s film develops into a savagely irreverent critique of consumer culture and a moving parable for being different. \nScreening with short Sauna the Dead: A Fairy Tale (21 mins). Introduced by Jordan Phillips\, queer horror maestro at Queen Margaret University. \nContent note: hardcore zombie sex and eating of flesh. \nACCESS: Level access with Cinema plus accessible toilets all on ground floor (CCA).

Films in English language with long scenes with no dialogue.\n \n£5 / £4 conc / Free for unemployed and asylum seekers. Festival pass £40 / £30 conc.

SUMMARY:Queer Horror: A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge
DESCRIPTION:Described as ‘The Gayest Horror Movie Ever Made’\, Freddy’s Revenge is the first of many sequels to Wes Craven’s 1984 classic A Nightmare on Elm Street. Maligned for being cheap trash on its release\, the second film in the franchise has achieved cult status for its gloriously campy queer subtext. Virginal teenager\, Jesse\, feels he has something inside him that needs to ‘come out\,’ which turns out\, of course\, to be Freddy Krueger. Beyond this unsubtle\, central metaphor\, Jesse has a suspiciously close relationship with his male friend\, a sadomasochistic gym teacher who literally gets stripped and whipped\, and a supposed love interest who looks like Meryl Streep. \nIntroduced by Jordan Phillips\, queer horror maestro at Queen Margaret University. \nACCESS: Level access with Cinema plus accessible toilets all on ground floor (CCA). Film screening with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. Hearing loop available. BSL interpretation for introduction. English language film.\n \n£5 / £4 conc / Free for unemployed and asylum seekers. Festival pass £40 / £30 conc. All prices include booking fee. \nTo book tickets\, please use the button below or call CCA box office on +44 (0)141 352 4900. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://ccaglasgow.ticketsolve.com/shows/873560941/events’ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’]
