WARNING: This video contains scenes of violence that may be disturbing to some viewers. Viewer discretion is advised.The audio text consists of a series of quotes from romance/comedy films where female characters are standing in front of the mirror and talking about their bodies. It is married with images from noteworthy horror movies from 1960-2012. It is meant as an intertextual and self-reflexive examination of the gaze and the voyeur and poses questions about spectatorship, gender, and representation.
