- "The writers examine the American public's rejection of Freaks, a 1932 circus horror film in which almost all the characters were people with disabilities. They attempt to connect the public's extreme reaction to American cultural ideas of the physical body and theories about fears of disability, as well as to describe the film's interplay with changes in the social construction of disability. Among other things, they show that Freaks was interpreted not only as being filled with disgusting images but as exploitative of "pitiable" people. They also suggest that Freaks reinforced the cultural link between evil and disability/ugliness." [Art Index]

- "Part of a special issue on violence in film and television. The writers look at Tod Browning's 1920s films Freaks and The Devil Doll. They discuss Browning's decision in these films to inscribe disabled women as violent, which was virtually without precedent in the movies and violated one of mainstream society's most deeply held beliefs about disabled women. They look at the circumstances that surrounded the making of these two movies and examine Browning's strategies for representing the women characters and their actions." [Art Index]
