    A foreign language is a language indigenous to another country. It is also a language not spoken in the native country of the person referred to‚ i.e. an English speaker living in Japan can say that Japanese is a foreign language to him or her.

    argues that‚ in particular the slasher film disturbs the traditional model of spectatorship and identification. "As the character who lives to tell the tale of horror‚ the final girl‚ Clover argues‚ must be accessible as a point of identification to male viewers.
