Camp is an aesthetic style and sensibility that admires bad taste and ironic value. Camp questions art and beauty by dethroning the serious through theatricality, irony, and a love for exaggeration. It is inherently elusive to understand and capture in any art form but it has succeeded in paving its way through film history, intentionally or otherwise. The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) and But I’m a Cheerleader (1999) are two examples of films that employ camp sensibilities as we examine how they relate to each other in this legacy as well as to camp taste as it has evolved over time as a space for LGBTQ+ representation.
