About the Author
Steffen Hantke is a scholar, editor, and critic whose work explores horror, science fiction, and contemporary popular culture. With a keen interest in the relationship between cinema, history, and social anxieties, he examines how genre films reflect changing ideas about technology, catastrophe, violence, and collective experience. His writing brings together close textual analysis, cultural context, and an accessible critical perspective, making his work valuable to both academic and general readers. He is the author of Cloverfield: Creatures and Catastrophes in Post-9/11 Cinema (Reframing Hollywood), a study of the film’s place in post-9/11 American cinema and monster-movie traditions.
