Book Presentation:
Known as the "Edgar Allan Poe of cinema", Tod Browning is the dark master of filmmaking. However, despite the commercial success he enjoyed during his lifetime, he has never received the critical acclaim his work deserves. The Films of Tod Browning at last pays tribute to his cinematic legacy.

With contributors including Vivian Sobchack, Bernd Herzogenrath and Nicole Brenez, The Films of Tod Browning covers subjects including images of disability, the body as spectacle, the transition from silent to ‘talkie’ films and theatrical illusion in Browning’s films as well as analysing films such as Dracula, Mark of the Vampire and the often overlooked Iron Man in detail. An essential for film buffs and academics alike.
