| Abstract: | The Uncanny Child in Transnational Cinema illustrates how global horror film depictions of children re-conceptualised childhood at the turn of the twenty-first century. By analysing an influential body of transnational horror films, largely stemming from Spain, Japan, and the US, Jessica Balanzategui shows how millennial uncanny child characters resist embodying growth and futurity, unravelling concepts to which the child's symbolic function is typically bound. The book proposes that complex cultural and industrial shifts at the turn of the millennium resulted in these potent cinematic renegotiations of the concept of childhood. By demonstrating both the culturally specific and globally resonant properties of these frightening visions of children who refuse to grow up, the book outlines the conceptual and aesthetic mechanisms by which long entrenched ideologies of futurity, national progress, and teleological history started to waver at the turn of the twenty-first century |

The Uncanny Child in Transnational Cinema ana lyses an influential body of horror films featuring sub versive depictions of children that emerged at the turn of the 2ist century, and considers the cultural conditions surrounding their emergence. The book proposes that complex cultural and industrial shifts at the turn of the millennium resulted in potent cin ematic renegotiations of the concept of childhood. In these transnational films the child resists em bodying growth and futurity, concepts to which the child’s symbolic function is typically bound. By demonstrating both the culturally specific and glob ally resonant properties of these frightening visions of children who refuse to grow up, the book outlines the conceptual and aesthetic mechanisms by which long entrenched ideologies of futurity, national progress, and teleological history started to waver at the turn of the 21 st century. Jessica Balanzategui is a Lecturer in Cinema and Screen Studies at Swinburne University ofTechnology. Jessica s research examines childhood, history, and national identity in global film and TV; vernac ular storytelling and aesthetics in digital cultures (particularly the digital gothic ); and the impact of technological and industrial change on cinema and entertainment cultures.
