The horror
film is thriving worldwide. Filmmakers in countries as diverse as the USA,
Australia, Israel, Spain, France, Great Britain, Iran, and South Korea are
using the horror genre to address the emerging fears and anxieties of their
cultures. This book investigates horror cinema around the globe with an
emphasis on how the genre has developed in the past ten years. It closely
examines 28 international films, including It Follows (2014), Grave (Raw,
2016), Busanhaeng (Train to Busan,2016), and Get Out (2016), with discussions
of another 100. Each chapter focuses on a different country, analyzing what

crosses over to international audiences
