The first trailer for Blumhouse’s LGBTQ+ conversion camp slasher, They/Them has been released, available to stream on August 5th on Peacock.
Written and directed by John Logan, “They/Them” stars Kevin 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 Theo 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 the camp’s secrets.
In addition to Bacon and Germaine, Carrie Preston also stars in the film as Whistler’s wife and camp therapist Cora, while 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.
