arlenemccarthy Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Am I correct that at least 2 Val Lewton horror classics, The Seventh Victim & Cat People, contain a lesbian subtext ? Link to post Share on other sites
joefilmone Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 There is a strong homoerotic subtext in " The Ghost Ship". Link to post Share on other sites

TheTexasKid Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Acually, Carl Theodor Dreyer's "Vampyr," which was based on Sheridan Le Fanu's "Carmilla," which contains a lesbian vampire, beat 1936's "Dracula's Daughter" by four years, as "Vampyr" came out in 1932. Link to post Share on other sites
PrinceSaliano Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I don't recall a lesbian vampire in VAMPYR. However, I was pretty bored and possibly wasn't paying attention. Link to post Share on other sites
HarryLong Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Maybe The TexasKid meant that LeFran's novella contains a lesbian vampire. That aspect didn't really make it into VAMPYR. Link to post Share on other sites
