Divine Horror: Essays on the Cinematic Battle Between the Sacred and the Diabolical
ISBN: 9781476669922 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. From Rosemary's Baby (1968) to The Witch (2015), horror films use religious entities to both inspire and combat fear and to call into question or affirm the moral order. Churches provide sanctuary, clergy cast out evil, religious icons become weapons, holy ground becomes battleground--but all of these may be turned from their original purpose.
This collection of new essays explores fifty years of genre horror in which manifestations of the sacred or profane play a material role. The contributors explore portrayals of the war between good and evil and their archetypes in such classics as...

Monsters and Monstrosity in 21st-Century Film and Television
ISBN: 9780995029187 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. onsters seem to be here to stay.
Though we have left belief in the supernatural and -realness- of monsters in the past, we continue to craft monstrous narratives which delve into the depths of the human subconscious.
In certain cases, we love to love the monster. In others, we bond over mutual desire to see it conquered, vanquished. The inherent mutability of the monster provides us with endless opportunities to reimagine, reenvision, and reencounter these creatures.
This volume contains discussions and dissections of monsters across multiple media... onsters seem to be here to stay.

Horror in Space: Critical Essays on a Film Subgenre
ISBN: 9781476664057 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. In sharp contrast to many 1960s science fiction films, which presented an idealized view of space exploration, Ridley Scott's Alien (1979) terrified audiences, depicting a harrowing and ultimately doomed deep-space mission. The Alien films launched a new generation of horror set in the great unknown, inspiring genre filmmakers to take Earth-bound franchises like Leprechaun and Friday the 13th into space. This collection of new essays examines the space horror subgenre, with a focus on such films as Paul W.S. Anderson's Event Horizon, Duncan Jones' Moon,...

Terror in the Desert: Dark Cinema of the American Southwest
ISBN: 9781476672410 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Set in the American Southwest, "desert terror" films combine elements from horror, film noir and road movies to tell stories of isolation and violence. For more than half a century, these diverse and troubling films have eluded critical classification and analysis. Highlighting pioneering filmmakers and bizarre production stories, the author traces the genre's origins and development, from cult exploitation (The Hills Have Eyes, The Hitcher) to crowd-pleasing franchises (Tremors, From Dusk Till Dawn) to quirky auteurist fare (Natural Born Killers, Lost Highway) to more...

Zombies in Western Culture: A Twenty-First Century Crisis
ISBN: 9781783743285 / Angielski / Miękka / 106 str. Why has the zombie become such a pervasive figure in twenty-first-century popular culture? John Vervaeke, Christopher Mastropietro and Filip Miscevic seek to answer this question by arguing that particular aspects of the zombie, common to a variety of media forms, reflect a crisis in modern Western culture. The authors examine the essential features of the zombie, including mindlessness, ugliness and homelessness, and argue that these reflect the outlook of the contemporary West and its attendant zeitgeists of anxiety, alienation, disconnection and disenfranchisement. They... Why has the zombie become such a pervasive figure in twenty-first-century popular culture? John Vervaeke, Christopher Mastropietro and Filip Miscev... |

The 1990s Teen Horror Cycle: Final Girls and a New Hollywood Formula
ISBN: 9781476670645 / Angielski / Miękka / 195 str. Many critics and fans refer to the 1990s as the decade that horror forgot, with few notable entries in the genre. Yet horror went mainstream in the '90s by speaking to the anxieties of American youth during one of the country's most prosperous eras. No longer were films made on low budgets and dependent on devotees for success. Big studios produced summer blockbusters that made careers and big box office returns. Horror found its way onto magazine covers, fashion ads and CD soundtrack covers. "Girl power" feminism and a growing distaste for consumerism defined an audience that both embraced...
