{"product_id":"9781786721372","title":"Queer Horror Film and Television: Sexuality and Masculinity at the Margins","description":"In recent years, the representation of alternative sexuality in the horror film and television has ‘outed’ itself from the shadows from which it once lurked via the embrace of an outrageously queer horror aesthetic where homosexuality is often unequivocally referenced. In this book, Darren Elliott-Smith departs from the analysis of the monster as a symbol of heterosexual anxiety and fear, and moves to focus instead on queer fears and anxieties within gay male subcultures. Furthermore, he examines the works of significant queer horror film and television producers and directors to reveal gay men’s anxieties about: acceptance and assimilation into Western culture, the perpetuation of self-loathing and gay shame, and further anxieties surrounding associations shameful femininity.","brand":"I.B.Tauris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175109607664,"sku":"9781786721372","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781786721372_p0.jpg?v=1763738231","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781786721372","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
