A comprehensive introduction to the history and key themes of
the genre. The main issues and debates raised by horror, and the
approaches and theories that have been applied to horror texts are
all featured. In addressing the evolution of the horror film in
social and historical context, Paul Wells explores how it has
reflected and commented upon particular historical periods, and
asks how it may respond to the new millennium by citing recent
innovations in the genre's development, such as the "urban myth"
narrative underpinning "Candyman" and "The Blair Witch Project."
Over 300 films are treated, all of which are featured in the
filmography.
