Описание: Horror cinema is a genre that is undergoing constant evolution, from the sub-genre of `found footage,` to post-cinematic new media forms such as Youtube horror, horror video games and cinematic virtual reality horror.
Описание: This book argues that, in its increasing use of hand-held techniques, the motifs of surveillance and found footage and the trope of `digital haunting`, contemporary horror cinema reflects - and exploits - the anxieties of our age.

Описание: This book adopts a cognitive theoretical framework to address the mental processes triggered by found footage horror films. Films studied include The Blair Witch Project, Rec, Paranormal Activity, Exhibit A, Cloverfield, Man Bites Dog, The Last Horror Movie, and Zero Day.
Since the turn of the millennium, a growing number of female filmmakers have appropriated the aesthetics of horror for their films. In this book, Patricia Pisters investigates contemporary women directors such as Ngozi Onwurah, Claire Denis, Lucile Hadzihalilovi? and Ana Lily Amirpour, who put ‘a poetics of horror’ to new use in their work, expanding the range of gendered and racialised perspectives in the horror genre.
Exploring themes such as rage, trauma, sexuality, family ties and politics, New Blood in Contemporary Cinema takes on avenging women, bloody vampires, lustful witches, scary mothers, terrifying offspring and female Frankensteins. By following a red trail of blood, the book illuminates a new generation of women directors who have enlarged the general scope and stretched the emotional spectrum of the genre.
