In Brazilian cinema, the horror genre is closely associated with the masculine prowess of José Mojica Marins's character Zé-do-Caixão. Juliana Rojas and Marco Dutra's film As boas maneiras/Good Manners (2017) transposes horror to lesbian desire. This article examines how As boas maneiras queers Brazilian horror, focusing on the relationship between the two female main characters. Carefully suspended within the tension between the drive to create alternative models of desire, sexuality, and familial arrangements and an oppositional push to return to white heterosexual patriarchal norms, the movie delivers a criticism of the racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia in Brazilian society
