The Evolution of Slasher Films and the Role Women Play in Them. By: Ashley Rouse 1

Interest -I love horror films, but I enjoy slasher films the most. -Always thought the women's role wasn't justified and wanted to know why women where portrayed as inferior. 2

My Paper 3

Topic My topic was the evolution of slasher films and how women are portrayed in those movies. 4

What is the relevance between women and slasher films over the years? Driving Question What is the relevance between women and slasher films over the years? What is the relevance between women and slasher films over the years? 5

Thesis Statement Over the years, the slasher genre has involved focusing more on the killings, as well as the role of women, which has evolved by overcoming the stereotypical, damsel-in-distress type of character. What is the relevance between women and slasher films over the years? 6

Important Facts Horror genre is the least respected genre in the film world. Slasher films focus on a male murderer who stalks then kills teenagers/young adults. Vagina dentata. This led to the reason why we have the masculine man saving the damsel in distress in most movies we have today. Rise in feminism in the 1970’s created a new role called the “final girl” 7

8

What Have I Learned? -Almost each slasher film have similar plot lines. There is a male serial killer murdering sex-crazed teens except for the final girl who turns out to survive. 9

My Product 10

I did have a mentor, but she was more of a checker of my final posts I did have a mentor, but she was more of a checker of my final posts. For the most part, I worked on it by myself. By having a mentor, she assisted me by periodically making sure I was completing my posts. My product is a blog. http://ashleyrouse.blog.com/ 11

How? When? When ever I got the chance to work on my product, I would spend up to 2 hours writing/filming and editing my blog post. I used this website called blog.com to create my web-blog. I picked that site because it was easier to post different ways of reviewing a movie. 12
