It re-evaluates existing literature on the history of horror film, on women practitioners in the film industry and approaches to undertaking film industries research. It establishes new approaches for studying women practitioners and illuminates their unexamined contribution to the formation and evolution of the horror genre. The book focuses on women directors and screenwriters but also acknowledges the importance of women producers, editors and cinematographers. It explores narrative and experimental cinema, short, anthology and feature-filmmaking, and offers case studies of North American, Latin American, European, East Asian and Australian filmmakers, films and festivals. With this book we can transform how we think about women filmmakers and genre"-- OP - 259 CN - PN1995.9.H6 W625 2020 SN - 9781978805156 SN - 1978805152 SN - 9781978805132 SN - 1978805136 SN - 9781978805149 SN - 1978805144 SN - 9781978805118 SN - 9781978805125 KW - Horror films : History and criticism.
