Reviews
In American Twilight , Hooper is given the attention he deserves as a contributor to the canon of horror as a genre for his exploration of an 'America in crisis.', [A] well-edited collection of essays...[ American Twilight ] offers a nice mixture of close readings of individual or small groups of [Tobe Hooper's] films and discussions of the machinations of the film and television industry and its relationship to the auteur in the period from 1974 to 2006. If one of the editors' goals was to encourage readers to see Hooper's less-known works, they certainly succeed...All of the contributors elevate the director from the realm of forgotten genius...Highly recommended., [Tobe Hooper's] subversive and fascinating body of work...is given its due in editors Kristopher Woofter and Will Dodson's American Twilight ...[Hooper is] an artist who--lacking unlimited Hollywood resources--still found ways to mine his obsessions late into his fraught career...Those who agree will find American Twilight indispensable.

Synopsis
A master of gritty horror, Tobe Hooper captured on-screen an America in constant crisis and upended myths of prosperity to reveal the country's internal decay. Tobe Hooper's productions, which often trespassed upon the safety of the family unit, cast a critical eye toward an America in crisis. Often dismissed by scholars and critics as a one-hit wonder thanks to his 1974 horror classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Hooper nevertheless was instrumental in the development of a robust and deeply political horror genre from the 1960s until his death in 2017. In American Twilight , the authors assert that the director was an auteur whose works featured complex monsters and disrupted America's sacrosanct perceptions of prosperity and domestic security. American Twilight focuses on the skepticism toward American institutions and media and the articulation of uncanny spaces so integral to Hooper's vast array of feature and documentary films, made-for-television movies, television episodes, and music videos. From Egg Shells (1969) to Poltergeist (1982), Djinn (2013), and even Billy Idol's music video for "Dancing with Myself" (1985), Tobe Hooper provided a singular directorial vision that investigated masculine anxiety and subverted the idea of American exceptionalism., Tobe Hooper's productions, which often trespassed upon the safety of the family unit, cast a critical eye toward an America in crisis.
