Global Horror: Hybridity and Alterity in Transnational Horror Film
is an anthology textbook that challenges students to reconsider
horror films through the lenses of transnational cinema, evolving
technologies, and decolonial approaches to the genre. As such, the
book aims to increase our awareness of horror film histories across
vast geographies while examining existential questions about
difference, war, and the future of life on this planet. This
textbook is divided into two parts, organized by theme and
geographic range. Part One includes six reprinted essays speaking
on established subjects-German Expressionism, vampires, zombies,
science fiction, and more-from established modes of horror film
scholarship, including feminist scholarship and critique of
Blaxploitation horror. Part Two includes two reprinted essays on
J-horror and Korean horror film and six chapters of original
writing that explore understudied areas of the genre, including
Middle Eastern horror film, Indian horror film, Latin American
horror film, and Indigenous (North American) horror film. A timely
and complex exploration of the genre through the lens of
contemporary social issues, Global Horror is an ideal textbook for
courses and programs in film and cinema studies.
