For this thesis, I will conduct a literature review and a content analysis of various films in the slasher genre—Psycho (Hitchcock, 1960), Halloween (Carpenter, 1978), Black Christmas (Clark, 1974), and the Black Christmas remake (Takal, 2019). Throughout these films, I will be examining the themes of violence against female characters, stereotyping of female characters, as well as the concept of the Final Girl. There is an extensive amount of research on the slasher genre and the way that it indirectly promotes both violence against women and further emphasizes the imbalanced sexual power dynamics between genders
