The Seventh Victim (1943) feat. David Demchuk

<p>Stay away from the wine because we, along with celebrated queer author David Demchuk, are covering our first Val Lewton film:<em>The Seventh Victim (</em>1943).</p><p>The HEAVILY queer coded text is a nice alternative to our Universal Monster films, though we recommend having a comedy for when you finish because this movie is grim and nihilistic! Also, should we become Satanists? Because the Palladists don't seem that bad!</p><p>Up for discussion: disdain for the male characters, Lewton's classic "cat jump" sequence, and Frances' emotional outburst as confirmation of a lesbian relationship.</p><p>Plus: Joe gushes over Jean Brooks' performance, Trace cannot remember the poet's name, and David questions Redi's decision to put the logo of her secret society on a perfume bottle.</p><p>Questions?
