The birth and rise of popular Italian cinema since the early 1950s can be attributed purely to necessity. The vast number of genres, sub-genres, currents and crossovers and the way they have overlapped, died out or replaced each other has been an attempt, in postwar years, to contain the invasion of U.S. product while satisfying the demands the American industry had created in Italy. The author explores one of the most multi-faceted and contradictory industries cinema has ever known through the careers of those most closely associated with it. His recorded interviews were conducted with directors and actors both well-known and upcoming.

Controversial yet beloved among audiences, Christmas-themed horror movies emerged in the early 1970s and gained a notorious reputation with Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984), depicting Santa as an ax-wielding maniac. Some parents and conservative groups condemned the film, while others embraced the portrayal of Yuletide as a backdrop for fear and dread. Drawing on interviews with directors, producers, special effects artists, photographers and actors, this book celebrates the sordid, colorful history of the Christmas horror subgenre. Psycho Santa films such as Christmas Evil (1980) and 3615 code Pere Noel (1989) are examined, along with "Yule-Die" slashers like The Dorm that Dripped Blood (1982), Black Christmas (1974) and Silent Night, Bloody Night (1972). Commercial successes like Gremlins (1984) and Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010) are covered, as well as more recent releases such as Better Watch Out (2016), Red Christmas (2016) and Deathcember (2019). Rare photographs, promotional materials and an annotated filmography are provided.

The study of ideology and narratology in film reveals intricate layers of meaning and cultural significance embedded within cinematic narratives. This exploration delves into how ideologies are conveyed, reinforced, or challenged across multiple installments of a film franchise. By analyzing the narrative structures, character developments, and thematic continuities, scholars can uncover the underlying messages and societal implications that shape audience perceptions. Analyzing Ideology and Narratology in Film Series, Sequels, and Trilogies explores the complex narrative and ideological dimensions within multi-installment cinematic works. It investigates how sequential storytelling in film not only entertains but also reflects and shapes cultural, social, and political ideologies. By examining narrative structures in film series and franchises, this book reveals the subtle ways in which ideologies are constructed, perpetuated, or subverted. Covering topics such as narrative complexity, psychoanalytical analysis, and ideology, this book is a valuable resource for academicians, researchers, post-graduate students, educators, sociologists, and more.
