Laura Hall is a resident of Ottawa, Ontario and is an Associate professor in Sociology at Carleton University.

""Bloodied Bodies, Bloody Landscapes is a must read for anyone consuming horror media. Laura Hall masterfully dissects the ways in which settler-colonialism is at the core of sexism, racism, sanism, and white supremacy, and how we see those systems of oppression at work in historical and contemporary horror.""--Jessica Johns ""Expertly foregrounding the most overlooked horror in this film genre--settler colonialism--Bloodied Bodies, Bloody Landscapes is deadly.""--Christine Sy ""Bloodied Bodies, Bloody Landscapes is brilliant scholarship that pinpoints the ugly truth about the treatment of Indigenous people in horror cinema. But Hall is doing much more than examining tropes of mysticism, savagery, and settler colonialism-as savior in horror; she is directing our attention to the recuperative power of certain portrayals, thereby reminding us that an anticolonial lens can produce whole and full human stories--even scary ones.""--Robin R. Means Coleman, author of The Black Guy Dies First: Black Horror from Fodder to Oscar ""This is the book I've waited my whole movie-geek life for.""--Jesse Wente
