Divine Horror: Essays on the Cinematic Battle Between the Sacred and the Diabolical

Divine Horror: Essays on the Cinematic Battle Between the Sacred and the Diabolical

by A. Bowdoin Van Riper (Editor), Cynthia J. Miller (Editor)

Synopsis

From Rosemary's Baby (1968) to The Witch (2015), horror films use religious entities to both inspire and combat fear and to call into question or affirm the moral order. This collection of new essays explores fifty years of genre horror in which manifestations of the sacred or profane play a material role.
