520 8  The popular media of film and television surround us daily
       with images of evil - images that have often gone 
       critically unexamined. In the belief that people in ever-
       increasing numbers are turning to the media for their 
       understanding of evil, this lively and provocative 
       collection of essays addresses the changing representation
       of evil in a broad spectrum of films and television 
       programmes. Written in refreshingly accessible and de-
       jargonised prose, the essays bring to bear a variety of 
       philosophical and critical perspectives on works ranging 
       from the cinema of famed director Alfred Hitchcock and the
       preternatural horror films Halloween and Friday the 13th 
       to the understated documentary Human Remains and the 
       television coverage of the immediate post-9/11 period. The
       Changing Face of Evil in Film and Television is for anyone
       interested in the moving-image representation of that 
       pervasive yet highly misunderstood thing we call evil.
