- W634713803 abstract "In an essay published more than twenty years ago, “When the Woman Looks,” Linda Williams asks what happens when women view horror films, and she observes that “the female look — a look given pre-eminent position in the horror film — shares the male fear of the monster’s freakishness, but also recognizes the sense in which this freakishness is similar to her own difference” (87–8). In other words, when a woman looks at a black or monstrous male body, she recognizes her own socially constructed sense of bodily deformity and freakishness. Projection, introjection, cannibalization and identification — such have been the psychic contortions that have characterized women as subjects and objects in contemporary American horror films. This essay examines the evolution of the filmic postfeminist female Gothic detective in Clive Barker’s short story The Forbidden (1985), the literary source for the first two Candyman films (1992, 1995). It focuses specifically on the woman’s pursuit of the meaning and identity of the monstrous black male body that eerily begins to resemble her own." @default.
