Supranational Horrors: Italian and Spanish Horror Cinema since 1968 moves beyond national cinema discourse in considering the horror production of two Southern European countries, Italy and Spain. Rui M. Trindade Oliveira examines cultural elements that films from these nations share, arguing that a fuller understanding of European horror is possible when we acknowledge the output of Italy and Spain as being interconnected, as possessing a supranational, common identity: “Italian-Spanishness.”

With Supranational Horrors: Italian and Spanish Horror Cinema since 1968, Rui Trindade Oliveira offers a distinctive contribution to the understanding of horror films made in those countries during key eras of production. By acknowledging the importance of ?co-production, he is able to introduce an intriguing model, that of the Italian-Spanish supranational horror film, that offers a fresh way of approaching this body of work. Always conscious of their specificity, Trindade Oliveira’s approach deftly moves away from the idea of national cinema to explore the industrial, cultural, and aesthetic intersections that link Spanish and Italian horror productions.
