Viac o knihe

Giallo cinema, a unique subgenre of horror, often goes unrecognized outside of dedicated enthusiasts, and is frequently overlooked in academic film studies. Mikel J. Koven challenges the prevailing biases against these films, advocating for a vernacular cinema approach that redefines how they are evaluated. By shifting the focus away from traditional notions of "good" or "artistic" films, Koven encourages a fresh perspective that appreciates the cultural significance and distinct qualities of giallo cinema, countering critical prejudices.
