"This work explores the factors that cause a genre to change and examines the alternating cycles of audience expectation. The author identifies three distinct modes of depiction: the Malignant Cycle (1931-1948), the Erotic Cycle (1957-1985), and the Sympathetic Cycle (1987-present) including The Lost Boys, Interview with the Vampire and Buffy the Vampire Slayer"--Provided by publisher.
