English Gothic: A Century of Horror Cinema

Front Cover
Reynolds & Hearn, 2006 - Performing Arts - 320 pages
The British horror film is almost as old as cinema itself. 'English Gothic' traces the rise and fall of the genre from its 19th century beginnings, encompassing the lost films of the silent era, the Karloff and Lugosi chillers of the 1930s, the lurid Hammer classics, and the explicit shockers of the 1970s.
