The book explores how Latin American film directors migrate foreign horror tropes to create cinematographic horror hybrids that reclaim and transform monstrosity as a form of historical rewriting. By emphasizing the specificities of the Latin American experience, this book contributes to broad scholarship on horror cinema, at the same time connecting the horror tradition with contemporary discussions on violence, migration, fear of immigrants, and the rewriting of colonial discourses. 606 $aMotion pictures, American 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aFilm genres 606 $aEthnology?Latin America 606 $aCulture 606 $aLatin American Cinema and TV$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413120 606 $aGlobal Cinema and TV$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413240 606 $aGenre$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413110 606 $aLatin American Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411080 606 $aGlobal/International Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411160 615 0$aMotion pictures, American. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aFilm genres. 615 0$aEthnology?Latin America. 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aLatin American Cinema and TV. 615 24$aGlobal Cinema and TV. 615 24$aGenre. 615 24$aLatin American Culture. 615 24$aGlobal/International Culture. 676 $a302.2343098 700 $aEljaiek-Rodríguez$b Gabriel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0952954 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300036503321 996 $aThe Migration and Politics of Monsters in Latin American Cinema$92154517 997 $aUNINA
