This is the course blog for Ateneo de Manila University students enrolled in COM115.9 (Film Seminar: The Horror Film) for SY 2015-2016. This course takes a thematic (rather than, say, historical) approach to 21st-century horror cinema using concepts taken from various theoretical and critical writings in horror film scholarship. Each student is required to write a blog entry for each one of the following films, which will be screened and discussed in class.
