French Horror: Industry, Society and Media provides an overview of French horror film and television of the 21st century, exploring the particularities of the genre on both an industrial and a theoretical basis to identify an essential ‘Frenchness’.The book argues that there are a number of distinct production, formal and socio-cultural characteristics present in these works that mark them as uniquely French, including, among others, critical suspicion of homegrown horror and a corresponding lack of industrial support, attempts to evoke auteurism in certain creative figures, reference to key moments of French history, the framing of body horror and violence and the use of the banlieues.Through a series of close readings of both major and lesser-known texts, French Horror: Industry, Society and Media illustrates a rise in horror in the 21st century that is distinctly and unapologetically French.

This edited collection explores the world of the horror parody, examining how people take and transform the works that make us scream into ones that make us laugh. It explores famous parodies such as the Abbott and Costello Meet… films, Young Frankenstein and Scary Movie, as well as lesser-known works such as Psycho Beach Party, Student Bodies and Found Footage 3D, to see how they make the scary funny, offering both a potted history of the genre mode and an analysis of key strategies used in parodic transformation. The volume takes us on a journey to see how the cinemas of other nations (Brazil, Cuba, China and Turkey) engage with national and international humour and horror through their own parodies, and moves us beyond the silver screen to unpick the way in which horror is parodised across media including video games and web videos.
