I’m Professor Andy.
Let Me Explain.

🧬 THE CORE SAMPLE (EXTRACTED FROM A POSSESSED FILM REEL)
Andy Might / Scahill isn’t just a scholar—he’s the final girl of the academy, the one who sticks around after the credits roll to ask, “But what does it mean emotionally that Jason’s mask is cracked?” His entire praxis rests on the radical belief that monstrosity is liberatory, and that camp isn’t a punchline—it’s a precision weapon. He doesn’t write about horror so much as whisper to it in the dark, like it's his sassy, blood-soaked godchild. He doesn’t analyze slashers—he mentors them. His screenplay Subject to Activation reads like a slasher therapy intake session: Freddy, Jason, and the chick with the nail gun filing grievances while clutching iced coffees and trauma logs. The group chat is titled “Not Dead, Just Processing.”

🎓 ACADEMIC GOTHIC: OR, THE PROFESSOR IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE
In the classroom, Scahill is the professor who drops a VHS of The Bad Seed on the desk and asks, “Who here identifies with Rhoda, and why is it all of you?” He weaponizes Whitman, wields Sedgwick like a switchblade, and builds syllabi that slap, slash, and sometimes sing.
He doesn’t teach film history—he haunts it. His lectures are drag séances with queer ghosts cut from the canon, part Derrida, part divine spectacle. He connects The Exorcist to urban displacement and Ma Vie en Rose to late-capitalist Barbie crisis like it’s a normal Tuesday—and for him, it is.

🪞 HIS AESTHETIC IN THREE ACTS:
Act I: Sky background. Walt Whitman quote. MIDI Pachelbel’s Canon. Age 19, gay, discovering HTML like it’s forbidden magic.
Act II: Building a queer film guide on GeoCities, meditating on whether Heavenly Creatures is a love story, a trauma map, or both. (Spoiler: it is.)
Act III: Running Rainbow Cult—a glitter-drenched cinematic ritual series that blends burlesque, drag, and sneaky academic theory. It’s billed as a film series, but let’s be honest: it’s a church for deviant joy.

🌈 NOTABLE GENETIC MARKERS

• Chosen family tree: Rhoda (The Bad Seed) is his drag daughter. Wednesday Addams is his cool niece. Carrie White? He’s still sending her emotionally wrought apology texts.

• Digital footprint includes:

  • A lost LiveJournal, probably friends-only, absolutely oversharing.

  • A queer film archive on GeoCities WestHollywood that now exists only as glitter in the wind.

  • AIM away messages that quoted Sontag and Buffy.

• He has firm beliefs about horror villains' emotional arcs and has said “good for her” unironically about The Babadook.

Andy Scahill / Might is what happens when a queer theory zine crashes into a haunted VHS rental store. He’s the whisper in the theater that says “yes queen” during the murder scene. He believes misfits are sacred, monsters are misunderstood, and horror isn’t just a genre—it’s a blood-slicked family reunion with glitter, trauma, and radical empathy.
