These essays address a number of issues raised by the female vampire film, such as violence perpetrated on and by women; reactions to the genre from feminists, antifeminists, and postfeminists; the implications of female vampire films for audiences both gay and straight; and how films reflected the period during which they were created. Other topics include female vampire films in relationship to vampire fiction, particularly by women such as Anne Rice; the relationship of the vampire myth to sexually transmitted diseases like AIDS; issues of race and misogyny; and the unique phenomenon of teen vampires in young adult books and films such as Twilight."--Back cover. 650 0 $a Vampire films $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Women in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Lesbianism in motion pictures. 700 1 $a Brode, Douglas, $d 1943- $e editor of compilation. 700 1 $a Deyneka, Leah, $d 1971- $e editor of compilation. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230706020213.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20140513160401.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CEB34DDADAE011E39FFAC3B9DAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b IODInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
