SCMS 2025 roundtable CFP: De-centering Whiteness in Contemporary Horror

updated: 
Thursday, August 15, 2024 - 9:26am
Society for Cinema and Media Studies (SCMS) Chicago April 3-6, 2025
deadline for submissions: 
Wednesday, August 21, 2024

This roundtable titled Monster on the Hill: Decentering Whiteness in Contemporary Horror is interested in questions facing the Horror Genre in its new contemporary era. In the wake of “Black Horror” being deemed “America’s Most Powerful Cinematic Genre” by the New York Times, and the success of auteurs such as Jordan Peele, Nia Dacosta, Iris K. Shim, and more, we seek to think through what are the most important questions facing those reinventing the horror genre in ways that de-center a white western lens? How might we conceptualize horror as a genre that demands both solidarity and betrayal from its viewers, while unifying marginalized populations across the global south and north?
