11/13 AT NYC HORROR FEST!



MORE/TIX: NYCHORROFEST

GLAAD CAME OUT AGAINST THIS FILM SO I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. IT IS SUPER VIOLENT AND IT DOES LUMP TRANNIES IN WITH DRAG QUEENS, BUT SINCE WHEN HAVE MOVIES EVER GOTTEN THAT RIGHT? HELLO! TERRENCE STAMP AS A TRANS WITH A FULL BEARD IN PRISCILLA? BECAUSE TRANNIES ALWAYS GET THEIR PUSSY FIRST AND THEN THEY START ELECTROLYSIS.

GLAAD'S STATEMENT ON THE FILM:

'By marketing Ticked-Off Trannies with Knives as a "transploitation" film, by using the word "trannies" (a pejorative term for transgender people) in the title of the film, by casting transgender women in some roles, and by citing the murders of Angie Zapata and Jorge Mercado in the trailer, Israel Luna has attempted to place his film squarely within a transgender narrative. However, while some of the actors in the film identify as transgender, the characters are written as drag queens, "performing" femininity in a way that is completely artificial. The very names of these over-the-top female caricatures (Emma Grashun, Rachel Slurr, et al.) drive this point home.... GLAAD finds it troubling that the respected Tribeca Film Festival would give a film that sensationalizes anti-transgender violence and misrepresents the lives of transgender women, a platform that affords such great exposure.''
