Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) This book offers a critical analysis of the relationship between food and horror in post-1980 cinema.

By looking at food consumption within Gothic...

The Ghost of One's Self: Doppelgangers in Mystery, Horror and Science Fiction Films
ISBN: 9781476665665 / Angielski / Miękka / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) For millennia people have held folk beliefs about the existence of the doppelganger--"double walker" in German--a look-alike second self that is often the antithesis of one's identity and is usually considered an omen of misfortune or death.

This critical survey examines the double in more than 100 films by such acclaimed directors as Alfred Hitchcock, Mario Bava, Roger Corman, David Crobnenberg, George...
