概要 "From King Kong to Candyman, the boundary-pushing genre of the horror film has always been a site for provocative explorations of race in American popular culture. This book offers a comprehensive chr...onological survey of Black horror from the 1890s to present day. In this second edition, Robin R. Means Coleman expands upon the history of notable characterizations of Blackness in horror cinema, with new chapters spanning the 1960s, 2000s, and 2010s to present, and examines key levels of Black participation on screen and behind the camera. The book addresses a full range of black horror films, including mainstream Hollywood fare, art-house films, Blaxploitation films, and U.S. hip-hop culture inspired Nollywood films. This new edition also explores the resurgence of the Black horror genre in last decade, examining the success of Jordan Peele's films Get Out (2017) and Us (2019), smaller independent films such as The House Invictus (2018), and Nia DaCosta's sequel to Candyman (2021). Means Coleman argues that horror offers a unique representational space for Black people to challenge negative or racist portrayals, and to portray greater diversity within the concept of Blackness itself. Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how fears and anxieties about race and race relations are made manifest, and often challenged, on the silver screen"--続きを見る
