Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I talked with Joko Anwar about Ghost in the Cell, where supernatural horror collides with corruption, injustice and collective survival. Really enjoyed getting into what the film is actually angry about. 010
Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Jack Haven completely rearranged the way I think about slasher villains. We talked Little Death, the history of the trans monster, Michael Myers, queer cinema and the idea that maybe the killer isn't the threat. Maybe the killer is the load-bearing wall. ihorror.com/jack-haven-t...ihorror.comTeenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma: Jack Haven On Playing Little DeathJack Haven talks playing Little Death in Jane Schoenbrun’s ‘Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma,’ slasher history, gender, queer cinema and what comes next. 030
Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 02/08/2026I learned this morning that filmmaker Justin Hardy has died. Speaking with Justin and Dominic Hardy about Children of the Wicker Man became one of the most affecting interviews I have done. 042
Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 01/08/2026One of my favorite things about horror is how a tiny indie film can feel more dangerous than a studio movie with ten times the budget. Limitations do not kill horror. Sometimes they give it teeth. 020
Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 31/07/2026The decorations are perfect. The marriage is not. Then the carolers arrive. No House Is Empty is Christmas folk horror about old rules, broken vows, and a house keeping score. www.amazon.com/dp/B0H889PTLR 031
Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Harpoon is three awful people on a boat and it is one of the meanest, tightest little films of the last decade.

Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 27/07/2026One thing queer horror consistently understands is that transformation isn't automatically tragedy. Sometimes becoming something new is the happiest ending available. 021
Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Ghostface is a role. Michael Myers becomes The Shape through a mask. Leatherface chooses the face each moment requires. Horror has always known identity is constructed. It only becomes frightened when trans people claim the right to construct our own. lunagrayhorror.substack.com/p/horror-has...lunagrayhorror.substack.comHorror Has Always Known Gender Is a CostumeOn costumes, monsters, and the crowd holding the torches. 020

Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 21/07/2026The FANGORIA Chainsaw Award nominations are out. Awards are never an objective definition of “best,” but horror awards are useful because they reveal which strange little movies managed to linger in the culture. What deserved more recognition this year? 010
Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Christopher Nolan says he has always been interested in directing horror. His movies are already filled with guilt, fractured reality, hostile time, and men being emotionally destroyed by architecture. He is practically there. #horror 040

Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Indie horror is at its best when it feels like someone made the movie because they absolutely had to, even if nobody else understood why. 010

Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 08/07/2026I wrote the full Evil Dead Bible for @ihorrornews, which means I spent an unreasonable amount of time asking whether this franchise has continuity or just recurring trauma with better props. The answer: yes. @warnerbroshorror.bsky.social 010

Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 08/07/2026I think I learned to love horror as a family activity before I learned to talk about it as criticism. That probably explains a lot about me. I still watch these movies looking for craft, but part of me is always also waiting for someone in the room to yell, “Absolutely not, do not open that.” 020

Luna Gray @lunagrayhorror.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I keep thinking about how often horror treats “the home” as something unstable instead of safe. Not just haunted houses, but families, inheritances, marriages, pregnancies, old rooms no one talks about. The genre understands that domestic life can be its own locked door. 020
