Hi Welcome back on my blog, meet again with me "the miss wormbook" ,Kelsey. This time I will discuss one of my favorite books with the title of Recreational Terror
By:"Isabel Cristina Pinedo"
Published on 1997 by SUNY Press

This book also one of my favourite category on"Performing Arts"

In Recreational Terror, Isabel Cristina Pinedo analyzes how the contemporary horror film produces recreational terror as a pleasurable encounter with violence and danger for female spectators. She challenges the conventional wisdom that violent horror films can only degrade women and incite violence, and contends instead that the contemporary horror film speaks to the cultural need to express rage and terror in the midst of social upheaval.
