001451307 520__ $$aThis book focuses on how the abject spectacle of the monstrous feminine has been reimagined by recent and contemporary screen horrors focused on the desires and subjectivities of female monsters who, as anti-heroic protagonists of revisionist and reflexive texts, exemplify gendered possibility in altered cultures of 21st century screen production and reception. As Barbara Creed notes in a recent interview, the patriarchal stereotype of horror that she named the monstrous-feminine has, decades later, embarked on a life of her own. Focused on this altered and renewed form of female monstrosity, this study engages with an international array of recent and contemporary screen entertainments, from arthouse and indie horror films by emergent female auteurs, to the franchised products of multimedia conglomerates, to 'quality' television horror, to the social media-based creations of horror fans working as pro-sumers. In this way, the monograph in its organisation and scope maps the converged and rapidly changing environment of 21st century screen cultures in order to situate the monstrous female anti-hero as one of its distinctive products. Amanda Howell is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Humanities, Languages and Social Science at Griffith University, Australia, where she teaches courses in screen history and aesthetics. Her research focuses on gender, genre, screen aesthetics and cultures in a sociohistorical frame, with a recurrent focus on horror as well as other body genres such as action and the musical. Her publications on the Gothic and horror have appeared in journals such as Continuum, Gothic Studies and Genre and she is the author of A Different Tune: Popular Film Music and Masculinity in Action (2015). Lucy Baker teaches in the School of Humanities, Languages and Social Science at Griffith University, Australia, across fields of sociology, cultural and media studies. Her research focuses primarily on adaptations, gender and fans. Her work has been published in journals including Continuum, Journal of Girlhood Studies and The Journal of Fandom Studies. Her monograph Media and Gender Adaptation: Regendering, Critical Creation & the Fans (forthcoming, 2023) analyses adaptations and fanfic that change the gender of an original character and looks at how fans respond to those works.
