Excellent writeup of the “Top 15 Transsexual Killer Movies”
Check out this great list of transsexual killer movies. I’ve been talking Hollywood’s ear off about this sort of negative portrayal for years now with Andrea. Now that these movies are already made, I think it’s valuable to watch them and learn about our historical portrayals. Also, as a general “bad movie” fan and horror fan, I admit that I like seeing weird junk like these terribly wrong-headed, distorted manifestations of the fears that outsiders have relating to us. Check it!

I’m really not one for horror films. I’ve seen enough actual bloodshed in real life. Speaking of real life… Contrary to what those movies show, and as you know, if a transexual is involved in a murder, she’s a victim of the homicide, not the murderer. Even just reading that article gives me a distraught feeling of how “regular” society views us.

I think these movies are terrible, wongheaded depictions of trans people, of course. But it’s good to have them all in a list, so that we can be aware of the history of our misrepresentation in horror films (and all the implications that come from being used in that genre).
