Terrors of the Flesh The Philosophy of Body Horror in Film
Free Download David Huckvale, "Terrors of the Flesh: The Philosophy of Body Horror in Film"
English | ISBN: 1476682186 | 2020 | 196 pages | EPUB, PDF | 8 MB + 10 MB
The horror and psychological denial of our mortality, along with the corruptibility of our flesh, are persistent themes in drama. Body horror films have intensified these themes in increasingly graphic terms. The aesthetic of body horror has its origins in the ideas of the Marquis de Sade and the existential philosophies of Arthur Schopenhauer and Friedrich Nietzsche, all of whom demonstrated that we have just cause to be anxious about our physical reality and its existence in the world.

Transmedia Terrors in Post–TV Horror Digital Distribution, Abject Spectrums and Participatory Culture
Free Download James Rendell, "Transmedia Terrors in Post-TV Horror: Digital Distribution, Abject Spectrums and Participatory Culture"
English | ISBN: 9463726322 | 2023 | 334 pages | PDF | 2 MB
In the twenty-first century horror television has spread across the digital TV landscape, garnering mainstream appeal. Located within a transmedia matrix, Transmedia Terrors in Post-TV Horror triangulates this boom across screen content, industry practices, and online participatory cultures. Understanding the genre within a post-TV paradigm, the book readdresses what is horror television, analysing not only broadcast TV and streaming platforms but also portals such as YouTube, Twitch.TV, and apps. The book also investigates complex digital media ecologies, blurring distinctions between niche and general audience viewing practices, and fostering new circulation pathways for horror television from around the world. Undertaking netnography, the book further offers an innovative model - abject spectrums - to empirically explore myriad audience responses to TV horror, manifesting in various participatory practices including writing, imagery, and crafts. As such, the book greatly expands what is considered horror television, its formatting and circulation, and the transmedia materiality of audience engagement.

Holy Terrors Thinking About Religion After September 11, 2nd Edition
Free Download Bruce Lincoln, "Holy Terrors: Thinking About Religion After September 11, 2nd Edition"
English | 2006 | pages: 158 | ISBN: 0226482030 | PDF | 4,4 mb
It is tempting to regard the perpetrators of the September 11th terrorist attacks as evil incarnate. But their motives, as Bruce Lincoln's acclaimed Holy Terrors makes clear, were profoundly and intensely religious. Thus what we need after the events of 9/11, Lincoln argues, is greater clarity about what we take religion to be.

Gothic Terrors Incaceration, Duplication, and Bloodlust in Spanish Narrative
Free Download Abigail Lee Six, "Gothic Terrors: Incaceration, Duplication, and Bloodlust in Spanish Narrative"
English | 2010 | ISBN: 0838757472, 1611483409 | PDF | pages: 184 | 1.1 mb
Gothic Terrors brings together two discursive fields that have had very little contact hitherto: gothic studies and Hispanism. Though widely accepted in English studies, Hispanists seldom invoke the concept of a Gothic mode existing beyond its first appearance in the eighteenth century. Highlighting Gothic elements in mainstream Spanish fiction from the nineteenth century until the present day, Lee Six challenges the view that Spanish writers rejected what the Gothic had to offer. Through close study of texts by Benito Pérez Galdós, Emilia Pardo Bazán, Miguel de Unamuno, Camilo José Cela, Adelaida García Morales, Espido Freire, and Javier García Sanchez, Abigail Lee Six traces the evolution of three staples of the Gothic: the heroine imprisoned on grounds of madness, the doubled or split character, and the use of violent, gory description. Persuasively argued and well researched, Gothic Terrors reflects on the Gothic presence in Spanish mainstream literature and identifies two important ways in which it crosses cultural divides: the traditional gulf between high and low culture within Spain, and the engagement of Spanish creative writers with transnational literary trends. Gothic Terrors will thus appeal to Gothic scholars who are interested in the Spanish dimension of their field, as well as to Hispanists who may have been unaware of how relevant and useful Gothic studies could be for them.

Universal Terrors, 1951-1955 Eight Classic Horror and Science Fiction Films
Tom Weaver, David Schecter, Robert J. Kiss, "Universal Terrors, 1951-1955: Eight Classic Horror and Science Fiction Films"
English | 2017 | ISBN: 078643614X | 440 pages | EPUB / MOBI | 20.5 MB / 22.71 MB
Universal Studios created the first cinematic universe of monsters-Dracula, Frankenstein, the Mummy and others became household names during the 1930s and 1940s. During the 1950s, more modern monsters were created for the Atomic Age, including one-eyed globs from outer space, mutants from the planet Metaluna, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, and the 100-foot high horror known as Tarantula. This over-the-top history is the definitive retrospective on Universal's horror and science fiction movies of 1951-1955. Standing as a sequel to Tom Weaver, Michael Brunas and John Brunas's Universal Horrors (Second Edition, 2007), it covers eight films: The Strange Door, The Black Castle, It Came from Outer Space, Creature from the Black Lagoon, This Island Earth, Revenge of the Creature, Cult of the Cobra and Tarantula. Each receives a richly detailed critical analysis, day-by-day production history, interviews with filmmakers, release information, an essay on the score, and many photographs, including rare behind-the-scenes shots.
