Support Pride or Die: A Queer Action Film

Help me make a queer Buffy the Vampire Slayer to carve out some joy and whimsy in a time of perpetual darkness. This film is a bold, unapologetic fusion of action, horror, fantasy and queer resilience, serving as both entertainment and a powerful statement. In a time of rising LGBTQIA+ discrimination, political rollbacks on rights, and growing social tensions, Pride or Die is not just a film—it’s a battle cry. It celebrates queer strength, chosen family, and the power of love in the face of adversity. By blending supernatural action with real-world struggles, it offers both thrilling escapism and a crucial reflection of today’s fight for equality. This project is pulling from a female and queer cast and crew, creating opportunities to learn and build community.

Summary:

In a world teetering on the brink of darkness, a hidden legion of queer slayers defends humanity from vampires and demons—all while society seeks to erase them. Operating from secret lairs beneath gay bars across the world, these fearless fighters—drag queens, butch dykes, theater kids, and more—train relentlessly to battle supernatural threats. Meanwhile, a rising political movement exploits their proximity to hell portals, using biblical rationale to justify their oppression and extermination. As the world turns against them, they face a critical generational choice: continue protecting those who reject them or let the world fall into darkness.

When love is a weapon.
