Autor Victoria McCollumen Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 iul 2016
Arranged around the themes of dissent, patriotism, myth, anger and memorial, and with attention to both text and socio-cultural context in its interpretation of the films’ themes, Post-9/11 Heartland Horror offers a series of case studies covering a ten-year period to shed light on the manner in which the Post-9/11 Heartland Horror films scrutinize and unravel the events, aspirations, anxieties, discourses, dogmas, and socio-political conflicts of the post-9/11 era. As such, it will appeal to scholars and students of film studies, cultural studies and media studies, and those with interests in the relationship between popular culture and politics.

Recenzii
'Victoria McCollum peers into the dark forest of America after September 11 with Post 9/11 Heartland Horror. Her brilliant new work examines how horror films, including some of its most transgressive subgenres, deal with memory, ideology, and the often competing claims of nationalism, American exceptionalism and cultural sorrow. Historians and American Studies scholars will find rich material here in exploring how popular culture has tried to explain to itself the 'war on terrorr'.

'A significant intervention in American studies, film and media studies, and cultural studies, Post-9/11 Heartland Horror illuminates the emergence of a transgressive new sub-genre of post-9/11 rural-set horror films. Horror fans, students, and researchers will find McCollum’s insightful analyses of heartland horror films lively, accessible, and fascinating.'
