  • Brian Baker “Here on the Outside”: Mobility and Bio-Politics in Michael
    MOBILITY AND BIO-POLITICS IN CODE 46 115 Brian Baker “Here on the Outside”: Mobility and Bio-politics in Michael Winterbottom’s Code 46 This article takes as its focus the representation of mobility and bio-politics in contemporary sf cinema. Globalized networks of mobility in late capitalism have been haunted by the figure of the globally mobile terrorist and by the possibility of global pandemics such as the SARS epidemic of 2002-03 or the H1N1 swine flu panic of 2009 which resulted in the UK government stockpiling anti-viral drugs in case of the spread of a “killer virus.” In an increasingly mobilized world, anxieties about movement of people, transmission of data and disease, and terrorism produce systems for policing and regulating mobility. These anxieties are articulated in contemporary spy thrillers, zombie films, and outbreak or transmission narratives.1 In what follows, Michael Winterbottom’s Code 46 (2003) serves as a diagnostic text for the analysis of figurations of globalized mobility and bio-politics, and this article uses the work of Giorgio Agamben, Michel Foucault, and Hannah Arendt to investigate Code 46’s mapping of exclusion and inclusion, of the refugee and the citizen, within regulatory systems for the control of mobility in a near-future, post-catastrophic world of globalized capital. Code 46 begins with shots of the desert, of roads, and of dispersed settlements taken from a low-flying airplane. These vertical shots (desert analogues of the vertical shots of Manhattan or other North American cities that are a staple of contemporary crime film and television) render landscape as geometry, not as lived space from a human perspective (using perspective) but from an impersonal, “God’s eye” point of view.

  • Organisms and Human Bodies As Contagions in the Post-Apocalyptic State
    CHAPTER 1 Organisms and Human Bodies as Contagions in the Post-Apocalyptic State Robert A. Booth n this chapter, I show how discourses of contagion and pollution not only imbue many post-apocalyptic cinema and television narratives but also mirror public discourse about immigration. Further, I examine the often- I 1 racialized immigrant in post-apocalyptic film and television that is, in essence, a discourse on insider–outsider social divisions and relationships of power. Finally, I elucidate the argument that post-apocalyptic film and television rein- force the primacy of centralized political authority, namely the State, and post- 9/11 post-apocalyptic film in particular reinforces the hegemony of the State. The post-apocalyptic subgenre of science fiction and/or horror has become popular fodder for cinema and television. As Susan Sontag notes, “the science fiction film . is concerned with the aesthetics of destruction, with the pecu- liar beauties to be found in wreaking havoc, making a mess. And it is in the imagery of destruction that the core of a good science fiction film lies.”2 Portrayals of the post-apocalypse often index or echo visual memories of terrible societal traumatic events of the past.3 With the experience of the social, political, economic, and emotional trauma of the 9/11 attacks, one might reasonably assume that Americans would acquire a distaste for graphic destructive violence. Certainly, after the attacks, filmmakers occasionally felt pressured to remove images of the Twin Towers or to change content that might evoke the tragedy, such as planes crashing into skyscrapers. However, post-apocalyptic genres remain ever popular in American television and cinema.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: COMMUNICATING FEAR in FILM
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: COMMUNICATING FEAR IN FILM MUSIC: A SOCIOPHOBIC ANALYSIS OF ZOMBIE FILM SOUNDTRACKS Pedro Gonzalez-Fernandez Master of Arts, 2014 Directed By: Dr. Patrick Warfield, Musicology The horror film soundtrack is a complex web of narratological, ethnographic, and semiological factors all related to the social tensions intimated by a film. This study examines four major periods in the zombie’s film career—the Voodoo zombie of the 1930s and 1940s, the invasion narratives of the late 1960s, the post-apocalyptic survivalist fantasies of the 1970s and 1980s, and the modern post-9/11 zombie—to track how certain musical sounds and styles are indexed with the content of zombie films. Two main musical threads link the individual films’ characterization of the zombie and the setting: Othering via different types of musical exoticism, and the use of sonic excess to pronounce sociophobic themes.

  • Thematic Connections Between Western and Zombie Fiction
    Hang 'Em High and Bury 'Em Deep: Thematic Connections between Western and Zombie Fiction MICHAEL NGUYEN Produced in Melissa Ringfield’s Spring 2012 ENC1102 Zombies first shambled onto the scene with the release of Night of the Living Dead, a low- budget Romero film about a group of people attempting to survive mysterious flesh-eating husks; from this archetypical work, Night ushered in an era of the zombie, which continues to expand into more mediums and works to this day. Romero's own Living Dead franchise saw a revival as recently as 2004, more than doubling its filmography by the release of 2009's Survival of the Dead. As a testament to the pervasiveness of the genre, Max Brooks' zombie preparedness satire The Zombie Survival Guide alone has spawned the graphic novel The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks and the spinoff novel World War Z, the latter of which has led to a film adaptation. There have been numerous articles that capitalize on the popularity of zombies in order to use them as a nuanced metaphor; for example, the graduate thesis Zombies at Work: The Undead Face of Organizational Subjectivity used the post-colonial Haitian zombie mythos as the backdrop of its sociological analysis of the workplace. However, few, if any, have attempted to define the zombie-fiction genre in terms of its own conceptual prototype: the Western. While most would prefer to interpret zombie fiction from its horror/supernatural fiction roots, I believe that by viewing zombie fiction through the analytical lens of the Western, zombie works can be more holistically described, such that a series like The Walking Dead might not only be described as a “show about zombies,” but also as a show that is distinctly American dealing with distinctly American cultural artifacts.

  • From Voodoo to Viruses: the Evolution of the Zombie in Twentieth Century Popular Culture
    From Voodoo to Viruses: The Evolution of the Zombie in Twentieth Century Popular Culture By Margaret Twohy Adviser: Dr. Bernice Murphy A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the Degree of Master’s of Philosophy in Popular Literature Trinity College Dublin Dublin, Ireland October 2008 2 Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to explore the evolutionary path the zombie has followed in 20th Century popular culture. Additionally, this thesis will examine the defining characteristics of the zombie as they have changed through its history. Over the course of the last century and edging into the 21st Century, the zombie has grown in popularity in film, videogames, and more recently in novels. The zombie genre has become a self-inspiring force in pop culture media today. Films inspired a number of videogames, which in turn, supplied the film industry with a resurgence of inspirations and ideas. Combined, these media have brought the zombie to a position of greater prominence in popular literature. Additionally, within the growing zombie culture today there is an over-arcing viral theme associated with the zombie. In many films, games, and novels there is a viral cause for a zombie outbreak. Meanwhile, the growing popularity of zombies and its widening reach throughout popular culture makes the genre somewhat viral-like as well. Filmmakers, authors and game designers are all gathering ideas from one another causing the some amount of self- cannibalisation within the genre. 3 Table of Contents Introduction 4 Chapter One 7 Evolution of the Dead Chapter Two 21 Contaminants, Viruses, and Possessions—Oh my! Chapter Three 34 Dawn of the (Digital) Dead Chapter Four 45 Rise of the Literary Zombie Conclusion 58 Bibliography 61 4 Introduction There are perhaps few, if any fictional monsters that can rival the versatility of the humble zombie (or zombi)1.

The Others (2001).- Produced by Tom Cruise and starring Nicole Kidman.

  • File06.Moore and Schroeder.Qxp Layout 1
    “Zombies in the classroom….and no, we are not referring to our students” R. Scott Moore and Steven Schroeder Often, a school is your best bet – perhaps not for educa- tion but certainly for protection from an undead attack. (Max Brooks, The Zombie Survival Guide) Zombies, walkers, creepers, shamblers, and biters. No matter what term is used to describe the concept of reanimated corpses who share their semi-terminal infection with living humans by biting them in their quest for brains and human flesh, these threats to human ex- istence have fascinated people throughout history. While the public’s fascination with zombies and the apocalyptic threat they represent for modern culture has grown slowly since the release of George Romero’s Night of the Living Dead in 1968, it has only been since the 2003 publication of The Walking Dead comic book series cre- ated by Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore that zombies truly arose and entered the mainstream. In the last few years there has been an veritable explosion in zombie related items in all possible media forms: from books (World War Z, Day By Day Armageddon, Adrian’s Undead Diaries); to television series (AMC’s Walking Dead, SciFi’s Z Nation, BBC’s In the Flesh); to video games for all video game plat- forms (The Last of Us, Resident Evil, and Red Dead Redemption); to movies (Dead Snow 2: Red vs Dead, Resident Evil, 28 Weeks Later, Zombieland); and even a reality show about the filming of a zombie movie (Town of the Living Dead) and a upcoming game show (I Sur- vived a Zombie Apocalypse) presented by the BBC online.

  • 15 Film Titles That Describe Life in Lockdown
    15 Film Titles That Describe Life In Lockdown There’s something about how humour can lighten uncertain situations and make them feel a little less terrifying. So, with that in mind, the Learning Curve have put together a list of 15 film titles that relate to how our lives have changed or how we may be feeling during lockdown. So sit back, relax and choose a great movie from our round-up of lockdown-related film titles. We hope they put a smile on your face! The Mask (1994) Director: Chuck Russell Stars: Jim Carrey, Cameron Diaz, Peter Riegert Storyline Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) is a bank clerk that is an incredibly nice man. Unfortunately, he is too nice for his own good and is a pushover when it comes to confrontations. After one of the worst days of his life, he finds a mask that depicts Loki, the Norse night god of mischief. Now, when he puts it on, he becomes his inner, self: a cartoon romantic wild man. However, a small time crime boss, Dorian Tyrel (Peter Greene), comes across this character dubbed "The Mask" by the media. After Ipkiss's alter ego indirectly kills his friend in crime, Tyrel now wants this green-faced goon destroyed. Five Feet Apart (2019) Director: Justin Baldoni Stars: Haley Lu Richardson, Cole Sprouse, Moises Arias Storyline Seventeen-year-old Stella spends most of her time in the hospital as a cystic fibrosis patient.
