Released on Peacock today, the new film They/Them has some fun with modern conventions while also making sure to check some of the boxes that horror and slasher fans expect. Set at an LGBTQIA+ conversion camp, the film follows several queer and trans campers for a week of programming intended to"help them find a new sense of freedom." Naturally, as camp-themed slasher movies go, a masked killer begins to pick people off one by one.
Writer/director John Logan had a bigger answer too, offering insight into how the film designed its own mask but also how they landed on that by considering the entire genre around them. 0comments"First of all you look at every mask that has ever been designed for every slasher movie since the beginning of slasher movies and think find things you like things you respond to things you don't respond to," Logan revealed."You know, I'm very fond of the Jason Vorhees hockey mask for all the obvious reasons because that to me is the foundational text of slasher movies. But for our slasher we wanted to do something more bespoke because we're in the woods.
