Theo Germaine on How They/Them Is the Queer Horror Flick for Our Time
Work in Progress’s Theo Germaine is the nonbinary star of Blumhouse’s new horror film They/Them (pronounced as “They Slash Them”), and they’re ready to bring queer horror to the big screen. The movie is a great throwback to classic slashers like Friday the 13th and Sleepaway Camp (without the transphobia) and adds in the horrors of a bunch of LGBTQ+ youth undergoing conversion therapy. It’s a chilling — but welcome — twist on the horror summer camp genre.Before starring in They/Them, what was your background with horror?I’ve been into the genre literally for as long as I can remember.
