Blumhouse Productions - The New House of Horror (Paperback)

Blumhouse Productions is the first book that systematically examines the corpus of Blumhouse's cinematic output. Individual chapters written by emerging and established scholars consider thematic trends across Blumhouse films, such as the use of found footage, haunted bodies/haunted houses, and toxic masculinity. Blumhouse's business strategies and funding model are considered - including the company's high-profile franchises Paranormal Activity, Insidious, The Purge, Happy Death Day, and Halloween - alongside such key standalone films as Get Out and Black Christmas, and nonhorror films like BlackKklansman. Taken together, the chapters provide a thorough primer for one of the most significant drivers behind the contemporary resurgence of horror cinema.
