Scream Queer - Eros and Thanatos
Emerging or unverified festival
Scream Queer - Eros and Thanatos is a queer-focused, transgressive film event in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria that centers on the themes of sex and death. It is notable for presenting underground and boundary-pushing cinema—especially LGBTQ-themed work that blends horror, eroticism, avant-garde, exploitation, and experimental approaches—rather than functioning as a conventional horror or porn festival. It has gained recognition within the independent genre circuit as an alternative space for irreverent, provocative short-form cinema and body-politics storytelling.[1][2][12]
