Taking Bryan Fuller''s television version of Hannibal "The Cannibal" Lecter as its main text - and taking Zizek-style illustrative detours into Malcolm in the Middle, Dark Knight Rises, Harry Potter, Interview with a Vampire, Dexter and more - this book marshals Walter Pater, Camille Paglia, Nietzsche, the Marquis de Sade, Kant and Plato, as well as Dante, Shakespeare, Milton, Blake, Baudelaire, Beckett, Wallace Stevens and David Mamet to argue that Fuller''s show is a deceptively brilliant advance of aestheticism, both in form and content - one that investigates how deeply art-for-art''s-sake, and those of us who consciously or unconsciously worship at its teat, are necessarily entwined with evil.

  • King of Killers: the Criminological Theories of Hannibal Lector, Part
    King of Killers: The Criminological Theories of Hannibal Lecter, Part One By J.C. Oleson Old Dominion University The public exhibits an insatiable appetite for crime, especially for serial murder. Serial killers are prominently featured in television programs, feature films, novels, and true crime books. But one serial killer remains our favorite: Dr. Hannibal “the Cannibal” Lecter. Thomas Harris’ enigmatic literary character – the American Film Institute’s number one villain of all time – has become a wildly successful franchise. The trilogy of Lecter novels has sold tens of millions of copies, and the four Lecter films have earned more than $838 million. Perhaps the character of Hannibal Lecter is so popular because, drawn from real-life serial killers, he fits several criminological models. Or perhaps Lecter is popular because he presents readers with a puzzle, encompassing contradictions, defying convenient categorization. Keywords: Hannibal Lecter; serial killer; cannibal CRIME AND POPULAR CULTURE: FIXATED BY VIOLENCE, FASCINATED BY MURDER “[T]hey love crime, every one loves crime, they love it always, not at some ‘moments.’” Dostoevsky, 1881/1949, p. 451 The public exhibits a seemingly insatiable appetite for crime (Hyatt, 1995). At any given moment, there is usually a movie about cops and killers playing at the local metroplex theater. Our airwaves are congested with primetime television programs about homicide detectives, sex offender units, and crime scene investigators. We clamor for taut psychological thrillers and we watch gory slasher films “through a pinkish shield of splayed fingers, … [allowing these thrillers to fill us] with mixed feelings of amazement and terror” (Hinson, 1993, p.

  • The Image of Profiling Media Treatment and General Impressions James S
    Chapter 15 The Image of Profiling Media Treatment and General Impressions James S. Herndon Summary Criminal profiling, or simply profiling, is considered in terms of the manner in which it has been presented in the various public media outlets. Comments are offered about the messages being conveyed to the consumer of media material. The conclusion posited is that the perception one would derive of the nature and value of profiling seems to be dependent on the source of their impressions. INTRODUCTION Criminal profiling probably would not be receiving the attention it is today by the scientific community were it not for the attention it has been given by the media, in its various forms (movies, TV, novels, press, etc.). Public impressions are greatly influenced by the media, not always in positive ways. The hype and spin associated with criminal profiling is such that an informal survey of college students (criminal justice and psychology majors, in particular) would reveal a large percent stating that they intend to become profilers. The reality of profiling has been lost in the continual sensationalization of the practice by those who like to titillate others. This chapter will consider the various ways that profiling has been presented by the media. What is not covered are the scholarly journal articles and textbooks published in scientific venues. From: Criminal Profiling: International Theory, Research, and Practice Edited by: R. N. Kocsis © Humana Press Inc., Totowa, NJ 303 304 J.S.Herndon PROFILING IN MOVIES People love going to the movies. Films heavy in crime and violence top the list of moneymakers.

Hannibal Abstract This is a review of Hannibal (2001). This film er view is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol5/iss1/8 Megibben: Hannibal Ever since the night Renfield met Dracula, moviegoers have had an appetite for blood-sucking villains with class. And not since Bela Lugosi has a villain had more style and class than Anthony Hopkins' Hannibal Lecter. He quotes the classics. He's a patron of the arts. And his fangs are as acquainted with Bulugar caviar as with the soft, supple flesh of his victims. Hopkin's Lecter does not so much snarl as purr - whispering seductive innuendoes set to opera music - an approach matched only by Eden's subtle Serpent. This is much the same technique used by visualist Ridley Scott (Gladiator, BladeRunner). Scott's use of style over substance (or should I say "suspense") make Hannibal an exquisite sight to behold. In place of the psychological thrill-ride of the Jonathan Demme-directed The Silence of the Lambs, Scott's lush cinematography gives us a painterly blow-by-blow account of Hannibal.

Abstract When it aired in Fall 2011 on Fox, Terra Nova was an experiment in creating a cult television program that appealed to a mass audience. This thesis is a case study of that experiment. I conclude that the show failed because of its attempts to maintain the sophistication, complexity and innovative nature of the cult genre while simultaneously employing an overly simplistic narrative structure that resembles that of mass audience programming. Terra Nova was unique in its transmedia approach to marketing and storytelling, its advanced special effects, and its dystopian speculative fiction premise. Terra Nova’s narrative, on the other hand, presented a nostalgically simple moralistic landscape that upheld old-fashioned ideologies and felt oddly retro to the modern SF TV audience. Terra Nova’s failure suggests that a cult show made for this type of broad audience is impossible.

After graduating in 1964, Harris worked as a crime reporter for a local newspaper and he also worked as an international crime reporter in Mexico (―Thomas Harris‖); the vivid descriptions of crimes in his novels are likely based on crimes in real life. Moreover, Harris‘s first novel, Black Sunday, was a best-seller, though it did not revolve around a specific criminal; in fact, it portrays a terrorist attack. The success of Black Sunday ensured the publication of his second novel in 1981, namely Red Dragon. In Red Dragon, veteran FBI officer Will Graham is ordered by his superior to cooperate with a criminal, who he has arrested before, namely Dr. Lecter. Together, they seek to find a serial killer called the Tooth Fairy.

  • 228 Hannibal, Seasons
    The Irish Journal of Gothic and Horror Studies 16 (Autumn 2017) Hannibal, Seasons 1-3 (NBC, 2012-15) The TV series Hannibal was developed by Bryan Fuller and aired on NBC from April 2013 to August 2015. Unfortunately, the series was cancelled after Season 3 due to falling ratings, although it is now available on DVD and Netflix (and there are rumours that the show may be resurrected in the near future).1 Hannibal focuses on the character that first made his fictional debut in Thomas Harris’s Red Dragon (1981) and went on to appear in the novels The Silence of the Lambs (1988), Hannibal (1999), and Hannibal Rising (2006). Dr Hannibal Lecter then attained even wider fame via the novels’ five cinematic adaptations. Lecter (played here by Mads Mikkelsen) is a brilliant, elegant, and refined psychiatrist and an exceptional cook, with a gorgeous office and a polished, almost sterile house in Baltimore. The series functions as a prequel to the books and four of the films: Hannibal collaborates with the FBI in order to help capture serial killers, but he is himself a manipulative and sadistic murderer who cannibalises his victims’ organs. Hannibal is therefore a therapist who can dissect not only the minds of his patients and adversaries, but also the tissues of their very bodies.2 Each of the titles of almost every episode is the name of a dish, such as ‘Amuse Bouche’, ‘Mukozuke’, and ‘Antipasto’ (respectively in French, Japanese, and Italian). During the first two seasons, each episode largely consists of an investigation into the murders committed by a specific killer, although there are also a number of overarching storylines that span each season and portray the evolving relationships between the main characters.
