Synopsis

This book examines Japanese horror films and their American remakes. Focusing on the textual transformations that occur when texts cross cultural boundaries, this study probes the underlying socio-cultural, aesthetic, thematic and narrative complexities that organize each culture's representations of horror / the supernatural to encourage a richer appreciation of these films.
