Here is S\u003cem\u003etyle and Form in the Slasher Film II: Beyond Hollywood\u003c\/em\u003e, a volume that turns the attention of film form and style towards films made outside of the Hollywood system, looking not only at the greater United States, but to North America, South America, Africa, Asia, and Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eStyle and Form in the Slasher Film II: Beyond Hollywood\u003c\/em\u003e brings together an exciting range of scholars, both experienced and new, to revisit well-established case studies, more recent and lesser-examined case studies, and international industries that create movies with formal connections to the slasher subgenre of horror. Furthermore, expanding upon the thesis hinted at in \u003cem\u003eStyle and Form in the Slasher Film\u003c\/em\u003e, this follow-up makes a firmer, clearer argument for the integration of formalist methodologies to explore cultural texts in light of their sociopolitical contexts, arguing that through understanding \u003cem\u003ehow \u003c\/em\u003ethese films tell their stories we can better extrapolate what they mean for our political past, present and future both locally and globally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWickham Clayton\u003c\/strong\u003e is a UK-based author, filmmaker, and scholar.
