Logging Into Horror's Closet
Logging into Horror’s Closet: Gay Fans, the Horror Film and Online Culture Adam Christopher Scales Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies September 2015 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract Harry Benshoff has boldly proclaimed that ‘horror stories and monster movies, perhaps more than any other genre, actively invoke queer readings’ (1997, p. 6). For Benshoff, gay audiences have forged cultural identifications with the counter-hegemonic figure of the ‘monster queer’ who disrupts the heterosexual status quo. However, beyond identification with the monstrous outsider, there is at present little understanding of the interpretations that gay fans mobilise around different forms and features of horror and the cultural connections they establish with other horror fans online. In addressing this gap, this thesis employs a multi-sited netnographic method to study gay horror fandom. This holistic approach seeks to investigate spaces created by and for gay horror fans, in addition to their presence on a mainstream horror site and a gay online forum. In doing so, this study argues that gay fans forge deep emotional connections with horror that links particular textual features to the construction and articulation of their sexual and fannish identities. In developing the concept of ‘emotional capital’ that establishes intersubjective recognition between gay fans, this thesis argues that this capital is destabilised in much larger spaces of fandom where gay fans perform the successful ‘doing of being’ a horror fan (Hills, 2005). -

Vangeli Di Sangue Di Clive Barker
Vangeli di sangue di Clive Barker A quasi trent’anni dal capitolo che ha iniziato la saga Hellraiser, Clive Barker scrive il capitolo conclusivo della serie e lo fa chiamando all’appello il detective dell’occulto Harry D’Amour, celebre soprattutto per esser stato il protagonista del racconto L’Ultima Illusione (1988) prima e soprattutto della trasposizione cinematografica del medesimo, distribuita col titolo Il Signore delle Illusioni (1995), per la regia dello stesso Barker. Vangeli di sangue (The Scarlet Gospels), edito in Inghilterra e negli Stati Uniti nel 2015 ma giunto in Italia con due anni di ritardo grazie alla meritoria scelta della piccola Independent Legions Publishing, è un romanzo abbastanza voluminoso che si discosta sia dal romanzo capostipite (Hellbound Heart) sia dalla saga cinematografica di riferimento. Innanzitutto prende le distanze per il contesto in cui inserisce la storia (forse qualche reminiscenza del film Hellraiser II – Prigionieri dell’Inferno), in secondo luogo fa perno su un taglio assai più pulp sottolineato da dialoghi e battute più consone a un prodotto da blockbuster che a una storia giocata sulla suspence. In quest’ultimo aspetto risultava assai più efficace Hellbound Heart, senza ombra di dubbio più affascinante (e misterioso) per il suo limitarsi nel mostrare l’innominabile, ma di certo meno inventivo e più classico per il suo aderire al filone slasher movie. Clive Barker disegna le coordinate di un horror sospeso tra il grandguignolesco e il dark fantasy, con momenti di straordinario gusto pittorico-architettonico. Pur se penalizzati da un soggetto (è il contorno a brillare) non proprio eccelso. L’autore di Liverpool apre un vero e proprio squarcio sull’aldilà e lo fa sia dalla prospettiva del mondo umano sia da quella degli inferi, mostrando da un lato le anime dei defunti che vagano per le vie di New York avendo smarrito il percorso che conduce alla pace dei sensi e, al contempo, offrendo un dettagliato sguardo sul mondo costruito da Lucifero in persona (pure lui alla ricerca della pace dei sensi). -
Introduction
Introduction 1 Clive Barker, ‘Cenobite’, 1986. cintro.indd 1 8/2/2017 10:35:01 AM cintro.indd 2 8/2/2017 10:35:02 AM ‘To darken the day and brighten the night’: Clive Barker, dark imaginer S o r c h a N í F h l a i n n In one of his more in-depth television interviews, while promoting his newly published novel Weaveworld in 1987, Clive Barker was introduced by host John Nicolson as having such a remarkable impact on the horror genre that, some believed, ‘it could only be the product of a diseased mind’. 1 Rather than directly insult Barker on television, the description actually amused the author, a gleeful grin spreading across his youthful, handsome face. Th e television show, BBC ’ s Open to Question , was far removed from the more typical book promotion television shows or talk show slots during which hosts gently prod and chat with the author to showcase their new novel. Th e thirty-minute interview quickly proceeded to take the form of a confrontational interrogation, with Barker positioned to off er a defence for the ‘indefensible’ horror genre. Topics were dominated by audience-led comments and queries which evidenced the cultural residue of moral panic, following on from the video nasty crisis that had gripped the UK in the early 1980s. Th ere was a particular emphasis on the potential for copycat killings inspired by his work, or the potential viral spread of violence which, at any moment, threatened to burst forth from the screen simply because of Barker ’ s appearance on the show. -
Serial Killing Myths Versus Reality
SERIAL KILLING MYTHS VERSUS REALITY: A CONTENT ANALYSIS OF SERIAL KILLER MOVIES MADE BETWEEN 1980 AND 2001 Sarah Scott McCready, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2002 APPROVED: Tory J.

Master of Science in Criminal Justice, August 2002, 102pp., 28 tables, 1 figure, references, 92 titles. Public perceptions about serial homicide are more mythical than fact. Myths about serial homicide are perpetuated through several sources, especially the entertainment media. The number of films depicting serial killers and serial killing themes has increased in recent years. However, the reality of these films is debatable. This research examines the reality of the films involving a serial killing theme. Hickey provides statistical information on serial killers and serial killings. A content analysis of the fifty top grossing serial killer movies made between 1980 and 2001 was conducted using variables from Hickey research. Research shows similarities and differences between variables, however, results concludes the entertainment media does not accurately portray serial homicide.

Item More Personal, More Unique, And, Therefore More Representative of the Experience of the Book Itself
Q&B Quill & Brush (301) 874-3200 Fax: (301)874-0824 E-mail: [email protected] Home Page: http://www.qbbooks.com A dear friend of ours, who is herself an author, once asked, “But why do these people want me to sign their books?” I didn’t have a ready answer, but have reflected on the question ever since. Why Signed Books? Reading is pure pleasure, and we tend to develop affection for the people who bring us such pleasure. Even when we discuss books for a living, or in a book club, or with our spouses or co- workers, reading is still a very personal, solo pursuit. For most collectors, a signature in a book is one way to make a mass-produced item more personal, more unique, and, therefore more representative of the experience of the book itself. Few of us have the opportunity to meet the authors we love face-to-face, but a book signed by an author is often the next best thing—it brings us that much closer to the author, proof positive that they have held it in their own hands. Of course, for others, there is a cost analysis, a running thought-process that goes something like this: “If I’m going to invest in a book, I might as well buy a first edition, and if I’m going to invest in a first edition, I might as well buy a signed copy.” In other words we want the best possible copy—if nothing else, it is at least one way to hedge the bet that the book will go up in value, or, nowadays, retain its value. -
