100 Horror Films Hilariously Gone Gay

No one loves Halloween and scary films more than Krys Fox. It shows in almost every photo he takes. His lust for gore and blood combines perfectly with his dedication to visual wit in his homages to fright films.

Conceived in October 2012 as a test of endurance and a labor of love, 31 Days of Halloween is a photo series Fox started as a love letter to his fans and the very genre of horror itself. Every day for 31 continuous days, Fox recreated favorite scene stills from horror films both classic and new, beloved and jeered. Playing with gender roles in horror films, often the characters are gender swapped to comment on the stereotypes and limitations in the field, and to queer up a mostly straight genre of film. Some are humorous, some sexy, some gory, but all shot in a very intense and stylized manner fitting the particular film and time of initial release. Each day of the month, he then posted these images on social media with a story, blog, or behind the "screams" tale of the shoot itself to accompany the image. Shooting with no budget, no crew, no assistants, the project took on a life of its own, and survived many scheduling changes, late nights, breakdowns, and even a very famous hurricane. But, the series wouldn't die! Find all four years of Fox's amazing project on his site.

Krys is a NYC-based photographer, filmmaker, and artist specializing in portraiture with a dark, emotional, surreal filter. With inspiration ranging from surrealism, '70s underground and exploitation cinema, Victorian and Latin American Art and queer culture, Fox's eye is unique, intense, unflinching, and tender. His current projects are a series featuring Women in Rock n Roll, and working on coffee table books for his ongoing Styx Series (a Portrait project combining turn of the century death portraiture and Greek Mythology) and his yearly 31 Days of Halloween series. He is also working on writing and directing his first two features, both surreal experimental horror films.

Originally from Southern California, Fox relocated to New York in 2010. His work has been exhibited throughout California, New York, and the UK.

After a year's break out of the public eye, his future exhibitions coming up include a new NYC show, and exhibits in Mexico City, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Brazil, and New Zealand in 2018 and 2019.

He lives in New York City with his chihuahua Rocky and loves empanadas and scary movies.
