Austrian Horror Film
Austrian Horror Film
While horror movies are often looked down upon as a genre full of stereotypical characters and plot lines, they also allow important insights into cultural phenomena, psychological processes, and societal structures. In this course we will focus on horror movies from Austria, taking them as a point of departure for a discussion of the genre and its subgenres beyond Hollywood. It will also serve as an introduction to film analysis, genre theory, and affect theory, as well as cultural comparisons between Austria and the US. 3 hrs. sem.
