Reviews
"Riveting, enlightening, and occasionally scream-inducing. . . . This deep excavation of art imitating life is more than positive affirmation for horror fans; it is a call--or scream--to action." -- Shelf Awareness, "[With] sharp historical observations and astute readings, [Johnson pulls] dark political realities from movies that on the surface are about extraterrestrial or supernatural realms. This astute survey will fire up readers to fight back against the patriarchy." -- Publishers Weekly, "With wit and relish, Eleanor Johnson's urgent Scream With Me tracks six classic horror films alongside the rise of second-wave feminism. . . . With women's political, physical, medical and legal equality again under threat, there is new reason to witness the violence enacted on women--and to scream." -- BookPage, "These movies are some of the most important works of horror in the modern era. You will never look at them the same way again after reading this remarkable book. Johnson offers the key--the skeleton key, one might say--to the real-life horrors that lay, not too deeply buried for those who care to look, underneath the frightful surface of domestic life for American women in the 1970s, and that lies there again in the 2020s. Johnson cares--brilliantly, passionately--and makes us care, too." --Jeremy Dauber, author of American Scary: A History of Horror, from Salem to Stephen King and Beyond, "I'm not a fan of horror movies, but as a woman (and mother) living in 21st-century America, I'm recommending Scream With Me to everyone I know. With force and insight, Johnson reexamines classics like Rosemary's Baby , The Exorcist , Alien , and The Shining through a feminist lens, showing how, by forcing their audiences to viscerally feel their protagonists' fear, these films helped advance conversations around coercive control, sexual assault, and other forms of domestic abuse--and (in the case of Rosemary's Baby ) likely even contributed to the fight for abortion rights. Today, in a moment when many of women's hard-won rights are being stripped away, Johnson makes a fierce, convincing case that what's happening in real life should be making us scream, and that horror isn't just entertainment--it can be a catalyst for change." --Catherine Price, author of The Power of Fun, "The contention that domestic and reproductive violence is dramatized in iconic horror films made during the height of feminism's second wave is the startling, provocative, and ultimately persuasive thesis of this brilliant, riveting volume of cinematic feminist analysis. That chauvinistic male directors--at least one a perpetrator himself--can bring searing social and political inquiry to the fore of our culture's consciousness is not only fascinating but arguably a beacon of hope for change." --Dorchen Leidholdt, Esq., Director of the Center for Battered Women's Legal Services, Columbia Law School

Synopsis
Adapted from one of Columbia University's most popular courses, a smart, timely look at the horror genre from a uniquely feminist lens, bringing to light how classic horror films are embodiments of larger cultural attitudes about women's bodily autonomy and reproductive rights, A LOS ANGELES TIMES MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2025 A compelling, intelligent, and timely exploration of the horror genre from one of Columbia University's most popular professors, shedding light on how classic horror films demonstrate larger cultural attitudes about women's rights, bodily autonomy, and more. In May of 2022, Columbia University's Dr. Eleanor Johnson watched along with her students as the Supreme Court reversed Roe v. Wade. At the same time, her class was studying the 1968 horror film Rosemary's Baby and Johnson had a sudden epiphany: horror cinema engages directly with the combustive politics of women's rights and offer a light through the darkness and an outlet to scream. With a voice as persuasive as it is insightful, Johnson reveals how classics like Rosemary's Baby , The Exorcist , and The Shining expose and critique issues of reproductive control, domestic violence, and patriarchal oppression. Scream with Me weaves these iconic films into the fabric of American feminism, revealing that true horror often lies not in the supernatural, but in the familiar confines of the home, exposing the deep-seated fears and realities of women's lives. While on the one hand a joyful celebration of seminal and beloved horror films, Scream with Me is also an unflinching and timely recognition of the power of this genre to shape and reflect cultural dialogues about gender and power., A compelling, intelligent, and timely exploration of the horror genre from one of Columbia University's most popular professors, shedding light on how classic horror films demonstrate larger cultural attitudes about women's rights, bodily autonomy, and more.
