About

Welcome to ALL THE DEAD BOYS.

.

I’m Carter Smith – photographer slash filmmaker, and ALL THE DEAD BOYS is my deep dive into the world of queer fear and body horror.

.
.
I grew up in a small town where being gay felt dangerous. At least as dangerous as the horror movies I loved so much.

Maybe more so.

.

But gay horror wasn’t a thing. There was zero overlap between these two worlds that shaped my identity.

.

.

I left for the big city and traveled the world, taking pretty pictures of famous faces and loving every minute of it.

.

.

But horror never left my heart.

.

And when my first short film Bugcrush won the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, I realized maybe I wasn’t alone in my love of queer fear.

.

.

For me, queer had always gone hand in hand with fear.

.

.

I started ALL THE DEAD BOYS to explore that murky place where the beautiful and the horrific intersect. To tell stories and make images as seductive as they are unsettling.

.

.

So if you have an aversion to blood, sweat, or tears – STOP HERE.

.

But if you’ve made it this far, maybe you’re in the right place. I hope you are. I’m excited to have you along for the ride.

.

Thanks for being here. I appreciate it.

PS

.
On Fridays, I send out a simple email. A sexy boy from the Backroom and a bit of what’s going on in the world of ALL THE DEAD BOYS.

.

.

It’s called Dirty Little Fridays.

.

.

It’s 18+ only and 98% NSFW – and it’s where I show up every single week, doing my best to give your week a happy ending.

.

You can sign up to get Dirty Little Fridays here.

.

.

I want to hear from you. What scares you?  What turns you on?  Who do you want to see more of?
.

Maybe you’d like to model for me…? (I’m always looking for guys to shoot – the more shapes, sizes, and colors, the better.)

.

Send me a message.

Let me know.
