Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references and index
"Twenty-three film critics posit that horror is always rooted in gender, particularly in anxieties about gender difference and sexual politics ... This new edition expands the already comprehensive coverage of gender in the horror film with new essays on recent developments such as the Hostel series and torture porn. Informative and enlightening, this updated classic is an essential reference for fans and students of horror movies"--Publisher's description
