I SAW THE TV SHOW
Part Two - The Blue Opaque:
'BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER'
Featuring Josh Korngut
Dread Central managing editor Josh Korngut confesses his Blue Opaque: the iconic series 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer.'
About I SAW THE TV SHOW:
This Pride Month, Dread Central is releasing the three-part video series I Saw the TV Show, inspired by Jane Shoenbrun’s queer horror fantasia, I Saw the TV Glow, from studio A24.
In the film, a teenage boy named Owen is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show, “The Pink Opaque” — a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen’s view of reality begins to crack…
Over three weeks later this month, Dread Central’s Editor-in-Cheif Mary Beth McAndrews, myself (managing editor Josh Korngut), and staff writer Chad Collins will team up to discuss our own versions of “The Pink Opaque,” the life-altering teen genre TV shows which we were obsessed with as young queer kids in the 90s, a decade where otherness was all the more isolating and dangerous.
Each week one of us will share our personal relationship with a horror TV series that changed our young queer lives and unpack how the escapism, monstrous allegories, and social isolation shaped us creatively.
Each episode of I Saw the TV Show will accompany a personal essay published on the website.
