‘Cam’ Puts the “Work” in “Sex Work” [Horror Queers Podcast]

Sex WORK.

After kicking off our themed Doppelgängers and Deception month of March with a look at Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan, we’re now heading into the world of sex work with a discussion of Daniel Goldhaber‘s 2018 film Cam, which was written by former cam girl Isa Mazzei.

In the film, cam girl Alice (Madeline Brewer, The Handmaid’s Tale) is working her way up to the Top 50 of her camming website. When she does finally move up the ranks, her account is stolen by another girl who looks just like her. Locked out of her account and on a desperate quest to reclaim her agency, Alice sets out to unmask the mysterious woman and get her identity back.

Episode 325: Cam (2018)

Finish that whole steak on your fork and keep an eye on that Top 50 list because we’re continuing our theme month of doubles and doppelgängers in Daniel Goldhaber‘s 2018 gem Cam! Tagging in for the conversation is horror author Ariel Powers-Schaub.

Join us as we praise Madeline Brewer‘s fearless lead performance, as well as the exceptionally authentic screenplay written by Isa Mazzei, who drew upon her own experiences as a sex worker when writing the film.

Plus: clit-destroying Vibatrons, emphasizing the “work” part of sex work and a very insightful lesson on tulpas from our guest.
