Table of ContentsReviewsBody Genre is a stomach-churning, skin-crawling, electric shock of a book.--Alison Peirse, professor of film studies, University of Leeds, United Kingdom Whether Diffrient wonders what a horror film would smell like or what might be at stake when an actor playing a corpse is visibly breathing, the angle of approach, invariably, is as surprising as it is revealing. This is what makes Body Genre such an invaluable piece of scholarship--at many turns, readers will ask themselves why no one else has yet asked the questions about the horror film that Diffrient is asking.--Steffen Hantke, author of Cloverfield: Creatures and Catastrophes in Post-9/11 Cinema Author Information"David Scott Diffrient is professor of film and media studies at Colorado State University. He is coeditor of Screwball Television: Critical Perspectives on ""Gilmore Girls"" and East Asian Film Remakes, as well as author of several books including Omnibus Films: Theorizing Transauthorial Cinema and Comic Drunks, Crazy Cults, and Lovable Monsters: Bad Behavior on American Television."
