Description

Combining industrial research and primary interview material with detailed textual analysis, Contemporary British Horror Cinemalooks beyond the dominant paradigms which have explained away British horror in the past, and sheds light on one of the most dynamic and distinctive - yet scarcely talked about - areas of contemporary British film production. Considering high-profile theatrical releases, including The Descent, Shaun of the Deadand The Woman in Black, as well as more obscure films such as The Devil's Chair, Resurrecting the Street WalkerandCherry Tree Lane, Contemporary British Horror Cinemaprovides a thorough examination of British horror film production in the twenty-first century.
