Australian Genre Film interrogates key genres at the core of
Australia's so-called new golden age of genre cinema, establishing
the foundation on which more sustained research on film genre in
Australian cinema can develop. The book examines what characterises
Australian cinema and its output in this new golden age, as
contributors ask to what extent Australian genre film draws on
widely understood (and largely Hollywood-based) conventions, as
compared to culturally specific conventions of genre storytelling.
As such, this book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of
Australian genre film, undertaken through original analyses of 13
significant Australian genres: action, biopics, comedy, crime,
horror, musical, road movie, romance, science fiction, teen,
thriller, war, and the Western. This book will be a cornerstone
work for the burgeoning field of Australian film genre studies and
a must-read for academics; researchers; undergraduate students;
postgraduate students; and general readers interested in film
studies, media studies, cultural studies, Australian studies, and
sociology.
