  • Grindhouse: Entre O Cult E O B? Renato Bressan2 Universidade
    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação XIII Congresso de Ciências da Comunicação na Região Sudeste – São Paulo – 07 a 10 de maio de 2008. Grindhouse : entre o Cult e o B? 1 Renato Bressan 2 Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora Resumo: Este artigo pretende analisar Grindhouse , projeto que estreou em 2007 nos EUA e foi realizado pelos cineastas Quentin Tarantino e Robert Rodriguez. Num primeiro momento apresentaremos algumas definições relativas às expressões “B” e “Cult” para que, na etapa seguinte, possamos contextualizar como o projeto nos remete à Nouvelle Vague e aos primeiros filmes de Jean-Luc Godard . Por fim, analisaremos Grindhouse e suas peculiaridades, levando em conta o panorama cinematográfico contemporâneo e as modificações tecnológicas e/ou culturais recentes. Palavras-chave: Grindhouse; Cult; Filme B; Nouvelle Vague; Godard ______________________________________________________________________ Introdução Em 28 de janeiro de 2007 , o escritor Whitney Joiner explicava o que os diretores Quentin Tarantino e Robert Rodriguez pretendiam com o projeto Grindhouse : Na visão dos cineastas, "Grindhouse" é um presente àqueles que esqueceram, ou perderam, a experiência de assistir filmes de gênero B, como os que eram exibidos nas décadas de 1950, 1960 e 1970, os quais vendiam o que não era explorado pelos grandes estúdios: geralmente sexo e sangue derramado. Os filmes, frequentemente exibidos um após o outro, tinham cartazes pomposos que prometiam mais do que suas absurdas produções de baixo orçamento poderiam oferecer (...) Às vezes, até os locais de exibição eram assustadores 3(JOINER, 2007). Considerando estas informações, analisaremos quais as relações de Grindhouse com os termos B e Cult, e como o projeto nos remete à Nouvelle Vague e aos primeiros filmes de Jean-Luc Godard.

SYNOPSIS Decades after the apocalypse, the world has been left in a permanent nuclear winter. A lonely young orphan called THE KID roams the wasteland scavenging for comic books and paraphernalia from the 80s. He trades knick-knacks with the dodgy bar keep BAGU at the nearby trading post for fresh water, the most valuable commodity in this land forsaken by toxins. After bumping into arm-wrestling champion FREDERICK, the Kid sees a glimpse of the exciting world he’s been hiding from all these years. His routine existence is disrupted when he runs into the mysterious (and highly excitable) APPLE. Just as Apple starts to bring The Kid out of his isolated world with unflappable humour and goofy behaviour, their relationship is forever changed when she is kidnapped by a BOUNTY HUNTER working for ZEUS; the sadistic and overly-garrulous leader of the Wasteland. Armed with little more than blind faith and an ancient turbocharged weapon, THE KID must confront his fears and embark on an incredible journey with Frederick to rid the Wasteland of evil and to save the girl of his dreams.

  • 1980S Retro Film Culture and the Masculinity of Cult
    IT'S ALL COMING BACK TO YOU: 1980s RETRO FILM CULTURE AND THE MASCULINITY OF CULT Ryan Collins Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2017 APPROVED: Harry Benshoff, Committee Chair Kevin Heffernan, Committee Member James Martin, Committee Member Eugene Martin, Chair of the Department of Media Arts David Holdeman, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Collins, Ryan. It's All Coming Back to You: 1980s Retro Film Culture and the Masculinity of Cult. Master of Arts (Media Industry and Critical Studies), August 2017, 130 pp., bibliography, 214 titles. The 1980s is a formative decade in American history. America sought to reestablish itself as a global power and to reassert the dominant ideology of white, patriarchal capitalism. Likewise, media producers in the 1980s sought to reassert the dominance of the white, male, muscled body in filmic representations. The identity politics of the 1980s and the depictions of the white, muscled body once prominent in the 1980s have been the site of conservative nostalgia for a young, male-dominated, cult audience that is a subset of a larger cultural trend known as retro film culture. This thesis provides historical context behind the populist 1980s B- action films from Cannon Group, Inc that celebrate violent masculinity in filmic representations with white, male action heroes. Equally important is the revival of VHS collecting and how this 1980s-inspired subculture reinforces white, patriarchal capitalism through the cult films they valorize and their capitalistic trading practices despite their claims of oppositionality against mainstream taste and Hollywood films.
