In this book, Patricia Pisters investigates contemporary women directors such as Ngozi Onwurah, Claire Denis, Lucile Had%zihalilovic and Ana Lily Amirpour, who put \"a poetics of horror\" to new use in their work, expanding the range of gendered and racialized 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patricia Pisters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474466958\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474466950\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2022","brand":"Patricia Pisters","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43942903742719,"sku":"9781474466950","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_290cb020-7e77-4943-a2c3-4be36bd34bc4.jpg?v=1681495037","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/new-blood-in-contemporary-cinema-patricia-pisters-9781474466950","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
