PCA/ACA

Up to this point, horror on television has been seen, as explained by Matt Hills in The Pleasures of Horror, "conceptually and generically dispensable." With the popularity of such television fare as True Blood, The Walking Dead, and Supernatural, early shows are sometimes left in the shadows of these contemporary explorations or horror. Hills details early incarnations of horror on the small screen as being clustered under the concept of 'Gothic TV,' which distances the viewer from the visual text in terms of location or content that is mixed with elements of the Gothic or science-fiction.

Call for paper: Panel on "Deaf Cinema in Asia" at Asian Cinema Studies Society Conference (HKU, Hong Kong, Mar 18-20,2012)

Deaf Cinema is emerging in the world. However the subject matter lacks scholarly attention. As the organizer of The Second Hong Kong International Deaf Film Festival, I would like to form a panel to discuss the characteristics that constitute Deaf Cinema, especially in Asia. The papers could be on the representation of D/deaf and/or hard of hearing in mainstream cinema and the cultural politics of D/deaf identity in Asian Cinema.
