Quote:

The Ruins director Carter Smith is going back to his body-horror roots with his latest feature, Swallowed. That includes re-teaming with The Ruins’ lead actress Jena Malone.

An Instagram post by Smith reveals a few key details about the mysterious horror film; production recently wrapped in Maine and A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge actor Mark Patton also stars. Smith refers to Swallowed as his first All the Dead Boys feature- All the Dead Boys is Smith’s deep dive into queer fear and body horror.

Most intriguing of all is Smith’s description of Swallowed as a “slimy wild queer horror nightmare of a movie.” Smith doesn’t reveal any plot details as he heads into post-production but promises to share more soon. •••

Queer fear? So homophobia?

Interesting concept, but yeah- he's gotta be careful with labelling it as a queer horror movie. There are already an exorbitant amount of people who think queer people are horror movie monsters and full of diseases as is. Some might take the message a bit too literally unless it's done really well.

I love The Ruins, one of my favourite horror movies of the 21st Century (based on the book written by Smith's brother). I'll look out for this.
