Introduction
- introduce question
- explain research sources used
- brief order of points raised
Para 1-3
- Freud's opinion on the undead and how existing person with special powers intent on harming and deceiving
- Focus on 1 monster vampire
- begin with their appearance - feminised, look appealing to their victims
- Lead onto the hidden image that unerves people e.g state between life and death
- look into idea of vampire as sexual initator - the hidden beast taking presence (possibly make a subtle connection to the werewolf), also how something meant to repulse draws an audience in as something never usually seen in real life - vampire bite seen as erotic
- sum up section with gender swapping
Para 4 - 6
- Freud's opinion of the womb - when we look back the space seems uncanny to develop in
- look at Frankenstein - most well known, using animated energy to give life
- begin retracing the ideas of gender swapping within the role of creator/ womb monster, idea of how man is trying to take the natural role away from women and becoming own god
- how the creator is slowly perceived as the monster over his creation - (subtle link to the fly)
- how creations/ the transformed still retain human features and emotions
- sum up with a comparrison of how both examples seem to merge their identity with the opposite gender, also how vampires try to become closer to human and how creator accidently becomes the monster
Conclusion
- sum up points raised - links to a hiden identity in character and role of gender swapping
- don't introduce anything new
- form an overall opinion based on evidence of the uncanny identities within both examples
