| 520 | |a Despite growing interest, the film genre horror still receives marginal attention in study of the relationship between religion and popular culture. Through a review of the existing literature on this topic and new arguments, this essay will discuss reasons for increasing the attention on the impact of religion on horror films. The paper begins by reviewing Douglas Cowan's Sacred Terror: Religion and Horror on the Silver Screen, an authoritative contemporary work in which the author argues for the importance of horror in revealing the sociophobics of the viewers. Following this review, the paper discusses the arguments of religious and media scholars with some interest in the subject. Finally this paper adds to the prevailing arguments by presenting an Evangelical perspective on the relationship between religion and horror to illustrate the importance of this connection. | ||
