Book Overview
Often subject to more cuts at the hands of the censor than a serial killer's razor, the horror film has a fascinating history, not only as filmstudy but alsoas a look at what has been considered acceptable for the public to view, and what the state will allow its citizens to see. But for the most part horror filmsare about entertainmentconsistently profitable, eminently enjoyable. From horror cinema s beginnings in the late 19th century to the latest splatter films, from the chills of the ghost film to the terror of the living dead, there is more than enough here to keepfans awake at night. Among the many filmsdiscussed are the popular Dracula , Evil Dead , Frankenstein , Halloween , Ringu , Scream , and The Sixth Sense , as well asthe more unusual Black Cat , The Living Dead Girl , Nang Nak , Rouge , and Les Yeux sans Visage . The guide also profiles such popular directors as Dario Argento, John Carpenter, Wes Craven, David Cronenberg, Hideo Nakata, and Sam Raimi; as well as cult directors from around the world, including Coffin Joe, Jean Rollin, and Michele Soavi."
