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.
