| Publisher Description: Film monsters frighten their audience for decades. Nowadays, the medium 'film' is able to create nearly every imaginable audio-visual creature. Horror and science fiction films present the scariest monsters, which is the reason why the focus is on these two genres. This thesis deals with the question whether technical developments in creature design and representation in horror and science fiction films are making these films more frightening to their audiences. |
