The Rhetoric and Medicalization of Pregnancy and Childbirth in Horror Films
Courtney Patrick-Weber
This book argues that the medicalization of pregnancy and childbirth traumatizes pregnant people in various ways, using a select group of horror films to portray this trauma on a visceral level. This analysis allows audiences to identify and empathize with pregnant people who are victims of the medicalized pregnancy process.
