Anyone want to help?

Hey guys! I'm very new to this site so please be nice :) !

Im studying A level film and media at college and for 30% of my final grade I've got to do a research project centred on women in film. I've narrowed it down further to how women are depicted as monsters in classic horror films and got a copy of 'The Monstrous Feminine' by Barbara Creed which is helping A LOT.
But my film studies teacher says I should go more in depth so now i'm looking at how when feminism came in to play (about 1960s-70s) loads of vampire films with women as the villian came out as a kind of protest by the male movie makers. It's not going well because Im struggling to find anything as my knowledge on horror movies is not what it should be- hopefully I'm asking the right people...

I understand it is a lot to ask but if anyone has got any films, articles, websites or general opinions as to where to start my research and what to look at then I would really appreciate it!
