Ghost faces : Hollywood and post-millenial masculinity / David Greven Albany: State University of New York Press,
Call No: 749.4 GREAuthor: Grevn, David Edition: 2016Place: AlbanyPublisher: State University of New York PressPhysDes: x,306 p. : illustrated ; 23 cmSeries: Horizons of CinemaSubject: GENDER AND THE CINEMA ; MEN IN FILMS ; MEN IN FILMS ; HOMOSEXUALITY IN FILMS ; SCREAM (US, Wes Craven, 1996) ; HALLOWEEN (US, Rob Zombie, 2007) ; HOSTEL (US, Eli Roth, 2005) Notes: Ghost Faces explores the insidious nature of homophobia even in contemporary Hollywood films that promote their own homo-tolerance and appear to destabilize hegemonic masculinity. Reframing Laura Mulvey’s and Gilles Deleuze’s paradigms and offering close readings grounded in psychoanalysis and queer theory, David Greven examines several key films and genre trends from the late 1990s forward. Movies considered range from the slasher film Scream to bromances and beta male comedies such as I Love You, Man to dramas such as Donnie Darko and 25th Hour to Rob Zombie’s remake of the horror film Halloween. Greven also traces the disturbing connections between torture porn found in such films as Hostel and gay male Internet pornography. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781438460062Contents: List of Illustrations

Source: US/UKPlace: New YorkPublisher: BloomsburyPubDate: 2014PhysDes: xiv, 264 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 23 cmSubject: HORROR FILMS ; ECONOMICS AND THE CINEMA ; PRODUCTION ; HORROR FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; CRITICISM ; DIRECTION ; LITERATURE AND THE CINEMA ; THEORY ; DISTRIBUTION ; ADVERTISING FOR FILMS ; SCREAM (US, Wes Craven, 1996) ; SCREAM 2 (US, Wes Craven, 1997) ; SCREAM 3 (US, Wes Craven, 2000) ; SCREAM 4 (US, Wes Craven, 2011) Summary: "Even though horror has been a key component of media output for almost a century, the genre's industrial character remains under explored and poorly understood. Merchants of Menace: The Business of Horror Cinema responds to a major void in film history by shedding much-needed new light on the economic dimensions of one of the world's most enduring audiovisual forms. Given horror cuts across budgetary categories, industry sectors, national film cultures, and media, Merchants of Menace also promises to expand understandings of the economics of cinema generally. Covering 1930-present, this groundbreaking collection boasts fourteen original chapters from world-leading experts taking as their focus such diverse topics as early zombie pictures, post-WWII chillers, Civil Rights-Era marketing, Hollywood literary adaptations, Australian exploitation, "torture-porn" Auteurs, and twenty-first-century remakes." - Publisher's WebsiteNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and index; Also issued onlineISBN: 9781623564209Contents: -- Production lines, trends, and cycles.
