Dissertation
Bad girls: The female killer and the monstrous gaze in contemporary Hollywood cinema
2005
Overview
This study examines the figure of the female killer and the monstrous gaze within contemporary Hollywood Cinema: the action heroine; the serial killer; the Slasher killer; the rape revenge heroine; the femme fatale, the 'Bitch from Hell' and the witch. The theoretical aim of this study is to locate a form of visual pleasure for female spectators within these images which is active, sadistic and subjective, and yet remains figuratively feminine.
