A review by xsleepyshadows
Men, Women, and Chain Saws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film by Carol J. Clover

3.0

Hmm, good but there are a few things standing in the way of getting a better understanding 1) I haven't seen a lot of the movies she discusses, 2) I wasn't born in the 80's so I'm sure there was a more strict toxic masculine culture going on, but there was also the satanic panic going on...so I just don't get that culture around that time period. 3) It's a bit out of date now.

I would love it if the author revisited this now. Otherwise, it is an interesting read and def. put out some new ideas that I haven't thought about.
