This edited collection provides an insightful look at the career and output of American horror director Wes Craven, whose most famous films - such as 'The Last House on the Left' (1972), 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' (1984) and 'Scream' (1996) - came to define the form in the later decades of the twentieth century. Also paying attention to Craven's more underrated work, from 'Deadly Friend' (1986) through to his melodrama 'Music of the Heart' (1999), this academic study argues that the filmmaker's influence can still be felt on cinema today, many years after his passing. Featuring sixteen chapters and an extensive introduction, this addition to the ReFocus line will prove to be essential reading for scary movie connoisseurs and brings a valuable contribution to the growing field of horror film studies.
