Abstract
A domestic noir turns the home or workplace into an uncanny space of danger. A gynaehorror film depicts the reproductive body as monstrous. This essay analyses The Invisible Man, The Girl on the Train, and Gone Girl as gynaenoirs, an assemblage of domestic noir and gynaehorror, to show how women are terrorized through their reproductive bodies. By examining how characters in these narratives experience reproductive suffering, one can better understand women’s lives under pronatalist, neoliberal patriarchy.
