It isn't underrepresented at all if you understand queerness as allegory and history instead of solely looking for explicit representation.

I dunno I find it really hard to find queerness as an allegory in some of the films on your list but how you interpret them is part of what makes horror so great, especially knowing the background of some directors. I really don't see anything in Re-Animator or From Beyond or Frankenhooker or some of the other things listed but I didn't grow up queer so who knows.

Is there anything out there that could reasonably be described as "basically Miami Vice but horror"?

That’s not a list of actors who are terribly particular about what movies they appear in. In fact I’d argue that as a rule if a horror film has 3 or more names like that on its cast list you can pretty much guarantee it sucks. The more names the worse it gets.

That's just Slashers but in English and with the internet stapled to it. Also, like 100 other murder game show stories.

That’s probably part of the problem. A producer who knows his money is better spent paying a bunch of c list cult favs than hiring a competent cast or crew or writer or director or anything. Why bother when you can just sell a movie on cameos?

They warned the first row audience that you may get spit on during his more passionate rants. It was awesome. I still have the playbill somewhere too.
