The taste for horror is arguably as great today as it has ever
been. Since the turn of the millennium, the horror genre has seen
various developments emerging out of a range of contexts, from new
industry paradigms and distribution practices to the advancement of
subgenres that reflect new and evolving fears. New Blood builds
upon preceding horror scholarship to offer a series of critical
perspectives on the genre since the year 2000, presenting a
collection of case studies on topics as diverse as the emergence of
new critical categories (such as the contentiously named
‘prestige horror’), new subgenres (including ‘digital folk
horror’ and ‘desktop horror’) and horror on-demand
(‘Netflix horror’), and including analyses of key films such as
The Witch and Raw and TV shows like Stranger Things and Channel
Zero. Never losing sight of the horror genre’s ongoing political
economy, New Blood is an exciting contribution to film and horror
scholarship that will prove to be an essential addition to the
shelves of researchers, students and fans alike.
