Science fiction/horror
By:Kim Newman
Published on 2002-05-21 by British Film Institute
What in contemporary cinema is a horror film and what is a science fiction movie? |Blade Runner| (1982) is as much film noir as science fiction, and it is a literary adaptation. The latest remake of |The Mummy| (1999) is more an effects fantasy or action/adventure than straightforward horror. Whatever your viewpoint, the best of these movies have generated cults and imitations and the worst have a wonderfully perverse appeal all of their own. This new volume in the |Sight and Sound |readers series provides a varied and diverse overview of trends that have shaped sci-fi/horror in the last decade. It explores how recent films like |The Fight Club| and |The Truman Show| have impinged on more traditional territory and have tested the limits of conventional understandings of these most central of genres. The book engages with a host of topics that have emerged over the last decade: vampire movies, body horror, the nuclear threat, childhood terror, artificial worlds, and postmodern horror. It includes fresh looks at classics such as |Rosemary's Baby, Psycho, Halloween, Nosferatu, | and |Blade Runner,| as well as 90s highlights the |Scream |series, |I Know What You Did Last Summer, Strange Days Existenz, | and |Cube.|
