CAM is a truly haunting film that gets increasingly more uncomfortable and terrifying in ways certain content creators and femme-presenting people can feel at their core. The film follows camgirl Alice, a charming creator who specializes in intense but memorable “experiences” for her fans. After making her way to the top of the camgirl charts, her account and identity are stolen by someone wearing her face. Ghouls discuss the horrors, stresses, and complications content creators face. Gabe unpacks the layers of terror in this film that hit too close to home and Kat shares some helpful tips to protect your work.
