Description

Explore the fascinating psychology of fear with Julian Hanich's path-breaking book, Cinematic Emotion in Horror Films and Thrillers. This volume from the Routledge Advances in Film Studies series examines the aesthetic paradox of why we find pleasure in emotions we usually try to avoid. By analyzing how movies serve as the primary space for this experience, Hanich looks at specific aesthetic strategies used to trigger fear. The text provides a detailed study of the viewer's experience through prototypical scenes from iconic films such as Rosemary's Baby, The Silence of the Lambs, Seven, and The Blair Witch Project. Through this analysis, the book identifies five distinct types of fear found in cinema. It is an essential resource for students, academics, and film enthusiasts interested in the mechanics of horror and thriller genres. This book offers a deep look into the connection between cinematic techniques and the human emotional response.
