Mixed Reviews: Exploring Horror Through the Lens of Identity
Welcome to Mixed Reviews:
Where Horror Meets Identity
Welcome, horror fiends and cultural explorers! If you love dissecting the eerie, the unsettling, and the downright terrifying while unpacking themes of race, identity, and representation, you've come to the right place. Mixed Reviews is here to slice open the horror genre with a critical, multicultural lens—because what’s scarier than a lack of representation in your favorite films?
Why Horror? Why Identity? Why Both?
Horror has always been a mirror of society’s deepest fears. From the racial allegories of Get Out to the overlooked but chilling performances by diverse and minority actors in classic films, horror tells stories that go beyond just blood and jump scares. As biracial creators, we see horror as the perfect playground to explore the duality of identity—how we’re perceived, how we perceive ourselves, and how fear intersects with race in unexpected ways.
What You Can Expect
Deep Dives & Reviews – Breaking down horror movies, TV shows, and books from a biracial and/or multicultural perspective (or generally identity focused).
