{"product_id":"refocus-calum-waddell-9781399507011","title":"Refocus: The Films of Wes Craven","description":"This edited collection provides an insightful look at the career and output of American horror director Wes Craven, whose most famous films - such as \u003ci\u003eThe Last House on the Left\u003c\/i\u003e (1972), \u003ci\u003eA Nightmare on Elm Street\u003c\/i\u003e (1984) and \u003ci\u003eScream \u003c\/i\u003e(1996) - came to define the form in the later decades of the 20th century. Also paying attention to Craven's more underrated work, from \u003ci\u003eDeadly Friend\u003c\/i\u003e (1986) through to his melodrama \u003ci\u003eMusic of the Heart\u003c\/i\u003e (1999), this academic study argues that the filmmaker's influence can still be felt on cinema today, many years after his passing. Featuring 16 chapters and an extensive introduction, this addition to the ReFocus line will prove to be essential reading for scary movie connoisseurs and brings a valuable contribution to the growing field of horror film studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Calum Waddell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 139950701X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399507011\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 05\/31\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.67d","brand":"Calum Waddell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906744865023,"sku":"9781399507011","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8833473b-cf76-4639-96b9-0ffc7e7dca3c.jpg?v=1748771299","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/refocus-calum-waddell-9781399507011","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
