Teaser Trailer For Kevin Bacon's Conversion Therapy Camp Slasher Flick THEY/THEM

Blumhouse and Peacock have released the first teaser trailer for the conversion therapy camp slasher flick They/Them. The film stars Kevin Bacon (Footloose, Mystic River) as the director at Whistler Camp, a religious retreat for LGBTQ+ youth designed to “straighten them out”. The film was written and directed by John Logan, who wrote the films The Aviator, Skyfall, and Spectre, and created the series Penny Dreadful.

Bacon is joined in the cast by Theo Germaine, who plays camper Jordan; Carrie Preston stars as Whistler’s wife and camp therapist Cora; Anna Chlumsky plays the camp’s new medic, Molly; Quei Tann. Austin Crute, Monique Kim, Anna Lore, Cooper Koch and Darwin del Fabro round out the cast as Jordan’s fellow campers and allies.

The film “stars Bacon as Owen Whistler, the director of a conversion therapy camp dedicated to ‘curing’ LGBTQ+ teenagers of their sexual and gender identities. Over the course of a week-long session at the camp, Whistler butts heads with Jordan (played by Germaine), a trans and nonbinary teen who made a deal with their parents to legally emancipate themself after attending the camp. As Jordan and their fellow campers rebel against Whistler and his staff’s cruel methods of ‘treatment,’ a mysterious string of murders begins piling up, forcing Jordan to investigate into the camp’s secrets.”

This looks like an interesting scary movie that will hopefully see the LGBT underdogs prevail. They/Them will stream exclusively on Peacock starting on August 5th. Watch the full teaser below, and let us know what you think.
