The event will trace the development of the ‘repertoire of elements’ in the horror genre in British Cinema. It will look at the development of the genre over time and explore the influence of films from other cultures. Using a range of film extracts, the event will address the concerns of A2 modules in Film and Media Studies (all specifications), and the new AS in Film Studies.
This event is open to 14-19 year olds and their personal tutors only.
