Summary
The article discusses the utilization of nudity as a theme in horror films, focusing on the portrayal of societal and personal fears through horror genres. The specific film, "Nudist Colony of the Dead," is described as a low-budget, campy musical horror with nudist and summer camp slasher elements, depicting extreme religious and conservative viewpoints as the monster. The film turns the classic slasher trope on its head by having the nudists target the devout and moral individuals, ultimately conveying a message of living life to the fullest while denouncing extremism on both ends.
