Bøger af Matthew Hills

This exploration of horror fictions - literary, cinematic and televisual - looks at the emotions they engender in their audiences. It examines how horror is valued and devalued in different cultural fields; the cultural politics of the contemporary horror film; and horror fandom.

The author discusses a range of approaches to fandom, from the Frankfurt School to psychoanalytic readings, and asks whether the development of new media creates the possibility of new forms of fandom.
