Robin Wood On The Horror Film by Robin Wood
Essays on the Horror Film
A collection of critical essays that examines horror films as cultural texts, arguing that the genre expresses social anxieties and moral contradictions through recurring monsters and narrative strategies. It combines psychoanalytic, political and auteurist readings to show how horror both resists and reinforces dominant values while revealing audience desires and cinematic artifice.
