Just in time for spooky season, here's In Bed with the Right with a look at some classic horror films, asking: What's scary about gender? And what's gendered about fear in these movies? In keeping with the Halloween theme, we got way into this and watched way too many scary movies. And so we made a two parter. This first part dives into 1973's The Wicker Man and 1976's Carrie . The second part will be about Suspiria (1977) and Alien (1979). Here are the texts we refer to in this episode: Laura Mulvey, " Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema " Carol Clover, Men, Women and Chainsaws (1992) Julia Kristeva, Powers of Horror (1982) David Sanjek, " Twilight of the Monsters: The English Horror Film 1968-1975 "
