I was doing my horror film reading and came across this:
"The hero is short, unattractive, unpopular, and so, in a symbolic sense, castrated. But even as the enfeebled hero of the film, he still has the power of vision. It is only with the help of a more perfect male(one who is tall, handsome, and in control) that he is able to triumph over evil and to fulfill the hero function of the film."
I could just see Sam dragging Dean to a bookstore to pick up some novel he can't be without, and Dean goes to the horror section, and decides if he's stuck reading it might as well be American Horror, and then he gets to that passage, and is glaring at Sam and being grumpy and stuffing his face full of junk, and Sam has to give him like 80 blowjobs to prove his un-castration-ness and sign a written statement saying Dean is not short.
