Synopsis "Violence in the Films of Stephen King"

In Violence in the Films of Stephen King, contributors analyze the theme of violence in the film adaptations of Stephen King's work--ranging from the earliest films in the King canonto his most recent iterations--through a variety of lenses. Investigating the diverse and varying roles that violence continues to play as both the level of violence and the gendered depictions of violence have evolved, many of the contributors come to the conclusion that King's films have grown more violent over time. This book also examines the fine line between necessary violence and sensationalist violence, discussing the complexity of determining what constitutes violence with a narrative and ethical significance versus violence intended solely to titillate, repulse, or otherwise draw an emotional reaction from viewers. Scholars of film studies, horror studies, literary studies, and gender studies will find this book particularly useful.
