Resumo: This article aims to discuss the 1984 slasher film A Nightmare on Elm Street and its 2010 remake within a Gothic framework. The main hypothesis is that while both versions display Gothic traces in their imagery and structure, such as transgression and excesses (Botting, 2004), the monstrous character, the haunting return of the past, and the Terrible Place (Clover, 2015), the 2010 film capitalizes more efficiently on the interplay between appearance and reality by enhancing the importance of trauma in its plot. The proposal’s pertinence and originality rely on the juxtaposition of a consolidated framework (Gothic studies), a prolific horror cinema subgenre (slashers), and a recurrent tendency in contemporary cinema (remakes).

A hipótese principal é que, enquanto ambas as versões exibem traços góticos em suas imagens e estruturas, tais como transgressão e excessos (Botting, 2004), o caráter monstruoso, o retorno assombrado do passado e o Lugar Terrível (Clover, 2015), O filme de 2010 capitaliza de forma mais eficiente a interação entre aparência e realidade, reforçando a importância do trauma em sua trama. A pertinência e originalidade da proposta dependem da justaposição de uma estrutura consolidada (estudos góticos), um subgênero de cinema de terror prolífico (slashers) e uma tendência recorrente no cinema contemporâneo (remakes).UFSC2019-02-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionQualitative approachapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/2175-8026.2019v72n1p19910.5007/2175-8026.2019v72n1p199Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; Vol. 72 No. 1 (2019): Mapping Critical Journeys in Literature, Film, and Cultural Studies; 199-212Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; v. 72 n. 1 (2019): Mapping Critical Journeys in Literature, Film, and Cultural Studies; 199-2122175-80260101-4846reponame:Ilha do Desterroinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCenghttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/2175-8026.2019v72n1p199/38388Copyright (c) 2019 Claudio Vescia Zaniniinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessZanini, Claudio Vescia2019-02-01T08:29:25Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/57605Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterroPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/oaiilha@cce.ufsc.br||corseuil@cce.ufsc.br||ilhadodesterro@gmail.com2175-80260101-4846opendoar:2019-02-01T08:29:25Ilha do Desterro - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
