Comments on: Haunted Households: Adaptation, Genre, and Gender Politics in Horror and the Gothic /2021/04/03/eliza-letteney/ Wed, 29 Sep 2021 18:41:36 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Kath Scott /2021/04/03/eliza-letteney/#comment-11366 Fri, 16 Apr 2021 21:23:14 +0000 https://news.wooster.edu/?p=7317#comment-11366 I love, love, love the Haunting. I watched it in Prof. Prendergast’s class last spring, and I’ve been obsessed ever since! It’s fascinating to look at this interpretation of it. This is a pretty simple question- but who was your favorite character in all the films you watched for this project?

It has so many things that I love and find interesting. I very much appreciate feminist critical engagement with horror. I really like what you said about the adaptation of these characters, specifically the representation of Wendy. Film Wendy is one of my favorite horror heroines so I was very disappointed when I actually read the novel. You do a great job articulating her heroine status in the two depictions of her (and for the characters in the other stories). So cool, I had a great time reading your thoughts!

The presentation looks great and I definitely learned a lot about the depictions of women and feminism within the horror film genre. I think it is really neat how you compared the book and film adaptions and I agree with your conclusion about judging the two independently. Really great topic!
