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

medium-paced

2.5

Hit or miss. It is oscillating between interesting points of view, and overanalysis through Freudian nonsense. The writting feels detached from reality ; the points made are sometimes so convoluted and lost in Freudian Jargon that it isn't understandable. I am really missing simple and concise sentences, which are able to get an argument across, instead of an academic paper. It gets lost, and cannot bridge the gap between Theory and usefulness outside of it's world.
