The cover of the book "Psychoanalyzing Horror Cinema" featuring a pastel drawing of the ballerina from BLACK SWAN (2010), in pirouette, with her "black swan" persona doubling her in darker colors.
This is a BIG one โฆ and yes, that WAS Freudian. @psycstar.bsky.social's "Psychoanalysing Horror Cinema" is here for all your Oedipal sons, castration-fearing fathers, and little girls who feel that very special something missing. New @routledgebooks.bsky.social

Today is the official publication day of my first book, Psychoanalysing Horror Cinema (Routledge). I perceive this volume to be very similar to the Leaning Tower of Pisa: imperfect, different, strangely surreal with little glimmers of magic, & perhaps even memorable. I hope readers connect with it.
28.11.2025 12:47 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a surreal structure with a uniquely imposing aura. Pisa is rendered dreamlike because of this Tower. The conventional quality of the nearby buildings only enhances the magical features of being askew & imperfect. If this Tower were not Leaning, nobody would remember it.
