First Look at They/Them | A Gay Conversion Horror Film for Peacock

A new horror film about the terrors of conversion therapy is coming to Peacock. “They/Them,” a horror film produced by venerable production studio Blumhouse and starring Kevin Bacon, will be hitting the streamer Aug. 5.
Bacon stars in the film as Owen Whistler, the director of a conversion therapy camp named Whistler Camp, which attempts to “turn” LGBTQ+ teenagers straight and cisgender. Set over a week-long session at the camp, the film focuses on the various campers, led by trans and nonbinary Jordan (Theo Germaine), as they undergo psychological torment from the camp’s programming. When an unidentified killer begins claiming victims, the kids must team up to protect each other, both from the killer and from the camp staff.
“They/Them has been germinating within me my whole life,” Logan said in a statement. “I’ve loved horror movies as long as I can remember, I think because monsters represent ‘the other’ and as gay kid I felt a powerful sense of kinship with those characters who were different, outlawed, or forbidden. I wanted to make a movie that celebrates queerness, with characters that I never saw when I was growing up. When people walk away from the movie, I hope they’re going to remember the incredible love that these kids have for each other and how that love needs to be protected and celebrated.”
Will you give this a watch?

No, Hollywood is not trying to groom kids at all. That is just a right wing fantasy.

Just what I want from a horror movie.

Trying to listen to their explanations is like trying to figure out the plot of Primer and its many timelines.

So...is this where I can come to be told to keep my politics out of the entertainment experience if I mention I'd prefer it if studios kept their politics out of movies?

Get the hell out of here with your hateful and transphobic common sense

The ONLY reason I even have Peacock is because it’s only 5 bucks a month as an Xfinity customer, AND they have the Office. Once one of those goes away, I’m out.

I think it is $5/month regardless, I picked it up for "Brave New World" and keeping it for EPL and The Office.

Thought this meant it was a horror movie about someone transitioning genders

I'd rather watch CCP propaganda.
Can anyone prove that there's ever been "conversion camps"? Or is this another Hollywood political fantasy like the handmaids tale?

Also, if you call yourself non-binary, that means you are not binary. But isn't that "either/or" construct a binary one?

It’s five a month for the ads version, 10 for no ads. I just have no ads for five because of Xfinity
