Gender in the Modern Horror Film

Horror movies have been part of mainstream movies since the production of films such as Dracula and Frankenstein in the early 1930 's. As the type of terrorism evolves, the stories in the movie are constantly evolving. Friday the 13th (Marcus Nipsel, 2009) is a good example of this evolution. It was a remake, but Friday the 13th changed viewers' ways of viewing horror movies. Thoughts and theories behind this horror movie subtype can be summarized in a book. Carol Clover, a professor of American film studies, wrote in 1992 a book entitled "Men, Women and Chainsaw: The Gender in Modern Horror Movies". She explained the kind of horror film.

This term was officially created in 1992 by Carol J. Clover in a book titled "Male, Female, Chainsaw: Gender in Modern Horror Films." There are several features to share with the last horror girl (Raleigh of Halloween, Nancy of Elm Street nightmare, Scream Sydney Prescott etc). Usually, they have more gender-neutral or ambiguous names. They also wanted to keep her role in moral ethics by not participating in sex or drinking drugs, and in the group of their friends maintaining enough purity to ultimately kill the monster "Good woman" is. In addition, these last girls are better than their torture by accepting images of the penis, making them more rigid and masculine. For example, on Scream, Sydney stabbed a ghost face more than twice with a knife and in Halloween Raleigh pierced Michael 's eyes and throat with sharp knitting needles.

Critic Roger Ebert called the theater movie "Death Teen Movie" in her book, Carroll J. Clover "Man, Woman and Chainsaw". The final girl's prototype is defined in "Modern Horror Movies Gender". Mikita · Blotman also explored this history with her book "Striking a Movie: Anthropology Vomits". Adam Rockwood also published a book titled "Fragment towards Fragment: The Throwing of Slasher Movies" which detailed this type of history and theme (this book was later adapted to a documentary of the same name). In many cases, ignoring the most serious mainstream critics (not even ridiculed). Suspense Master JTHeslop, famously speaking of hatred for this subtype, makes it "useless, stereotypical, and in the case of his central opponent, it is a ridiculous pop psychology trend" Said. Please love me. "

Modern Horror In recent horror films these physical obstacles are more clearly shown in classical horror movies (of course due to the end of censorship), so these movies seem like exploitative and unpaid violence Maybe it looks like. But Mr. Pinede said there is a correlation between seeing violence on the screen and not seeing violence on the screen. Sometimes it does not allow you to fully see monsters and their violence, which protects the audience from overwhelming feelings related to the murderers they committed, but at other times we have a lot of bloody screens It will be exposed.
