The Representation of Women in Horror

 
  
 
The opening scene and death of Drew Barrymore in Scream (Craven, 1996) exemplify the 'anti-women'/feminist view of representation in horror films.
 
 
 

 
The final scenes of Nosferatu (Murnau, 1922) depict the power and dominance the male villain has over the female victim. Watch from 1hr 11 until the credits.
