Focusing on the evolution of horror cinema, this book reexamines twenty-first century American horror film remakes as vital intertextual adaptations rather than mere imitations. By analyzing films from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) to Candyman (2021), the author identifies distinct cycles and production strategies while exploring cultural and industry contexts. It argues that remakes signify the genre's creative recycling and adaptability, highlighting their significance in contemporary horror rather than indicating its decline. Dr. Laura Mee brings her expertise as a Senior Lecturer in Film and Television to this analysis.
