• Chapter 1 – Italian and Spanish Horror Films of the 1960s and 1970sChapter 2 – Italian and Spanish Horror in the 1980s and 1990sChapter 3 – ‘Italian-Spanishness’ in the Horror Films of the New Millennium

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.
