Cynthia J. Miller is a cultural anthropologist, specializing in popular culture and visual media. She is the editor or co-editor of ten scholarly volumes, including the award-winning Steaming into a Victorian Future: A Steampunk Anthology; Undead in the West: Vampires, Zombies, Mummies, and Ghosts on the Cinematic Frontier,Horrors of War: The Undead on the Battlefield, and The Laughing Dead: The Horror Comedy from Bride of Frankenstein to Zombieland.She also serves as the series editor for Rowman & Littlefield’s Film and History book series and National Cinemas series.
Overall, though, most of the essays in this book have valuable insights to offer; even readers well steeped in the film and the critical tradition surrounding it will learn something they did not already know, or be provoked to think about the film from a new perspective— or both.
