Eleanor Johnson

Eleanor Johnson is a professor at Columbia University who explores the intersection of horror films and feminism. She authored the book 'Scream With Me: Horror Films and the Rise of American Feminism 1968-1980,' analyzing classic horror films such as 'Rosemary's Baby' and 'The Shining' within the context of societal issues like domestic violence and women's autonomy. Johnson argues that horror films reflect and influence societal attitudes, particularly regarding women's rights, and she emphasizes the importance of understanding the portrayal of women in these films in light of feminist movements.
