@jplaczkiewicz.bsky.social, our PhD student, recently attended the #horrorNU conference organized by @horrorstudies.bsky.social, Northumbria University. She explored new perspectives in contemporary rape-revenge cinema, focusing on the role of affect & the transformative portrayal of female avengers

Truly a wonderful event! Had so much fun meeting all the amazing scholars and hearing about the brilliant research. Thank you again to the Horror Studies Research Group at Northumbria!

@ami-n.bsky.social it was lovely meeting you too! Thankfully, the journey back wasn't too bad - just a slight flight delay. I took your advice and went to Tynemouth, it exceeded my expectations, truly a sight to see! Can't wait to attend the conference next year and see you there!
