Uncovering neglected modern classics like Deathline, and addressing issues such as the representation of family and women, they consider the Britishness of British horror and examine sub-genres such as the psycho-thriller and witchcraftmovies, the work of the Amicus studio, and key filmmakers including Peter Walker.Chapters include:the ''Psycho Thriller''the British censors and horror cinemafemininity and horror film fandomwitchcraft and the occult in British horrorHorrific films and 1930s British CinemaPeter Walker and Gothic revisionism.Also featuring a comprehensive filmography and interviews with key directors Clive Barker and Doug Bradley, this is one resource film studies students should not be without.
