Think of the \"Indian burial ground\" trope, a staple of 1970s horror cinema, not to mention decades of Western films and fictions that made \"savage Indians\" the face of fear in popular culture. Can horror do something else in the hands of Indigenous people? Creators such as Eden Robinson and Jeff Barnaby have self-consciously turned to horror to tell new kinds of stories, stories that question who is a monster and what constitutes the monstrous.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorror and Indigeneity\u003c\/i\u003e explores representations of Indigenous people in settler horror texts and in the growing corpus of horror by Indigenous writers and filmmakers. Widely spanning time periods and media, the contributors to this edited volume address themes such as cannibalism, eco-horror, historical trauma, and contemporary anti-racism as they relate to classical horror cinema and recent works such as \u003ci\u003eThe Dead Can't Dance\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLovecraft Country\u003c\/i\u003e, and Stephen Graham Jones's \u003ci\u003eThe Only Good Indians\u003c\/i\u003e. Also featuring interviews with Jones and director T. J. Cuthand, \u003ci\u003eHorror and Indigeneity\u003c\/i\u003e rethinks the terror of the Other in potent and provactive terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Murray Leeder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1477334130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781477334133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Murray Leeder","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48114097848575,"sku":"9781477334133","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0d54dbd0-b7f2-42c6-9b8d-acc13398cb97.jpg?v=1769619098","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/horror-and-indigeneity-murray-leeder-9781477334133","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
