interdisciplinary perspectives and considers the horror film's role

auteur or targets individual films as 'reflections' of
socio-political forces and factors Redresses critical neglect
towards horror film franchising by discussing the forces and
factors governing its development across historical and
contemporary terrain while also examining text and reception
practices Offers an introduction to the history of horror
franchising, the chapters also examine key texts including
Universal Studio monster films, Blumhouse production films, The
Texas Chainsaw Massacre, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Alien, I Spit
on Your Grave, Let the Right One In, Italian zombie films,
anthology films, and virtual reality A significant contribution to
studies of horror cinema and film/media franchising from the 1930s
to present day It will be of interest to students and scholars of
film studies, media and cultural studies, franchise studies,
political economy, audience/reception studies, horror studies, fan
studies, genre studies, production cultures, and film histories
