Product Information

The phenomenon of so-called 'snuff movies' (films that allegedly document real acts of murder, specifically designed to 'entertain' and sexually arouse the spectator) represents a fascinating socio-cultural paradox. At once unproven, yet accepted by many, as emblematic of the very worst extremes of pornography and horror, moral detractors have argued that the mere idea of snuff constitutes the logical (and terminal) extension of generic forms that are dependent primarily upon the excitement, stimulation and, ultimately, corruption of the senses. Snuff: Real Death and Screen Media brings together scholars from film and media studies to assess the longevity of one of screen media's most enduring cultural myths. Thorough, provocative, and well argued, the contributions to this volume address areas ranging from exploitation movies, the video industry, trends in contemporary horror cinema, pornography and Web 2.0.

Reviews
"There is much to be said for this timely collection of essays ... It provides a rich archive of sources for interested readers; it is diverse in range but coherent in remit, and it addresses the topic broadly enough to appeal to many different scholars ... [This] is a serious intervention deliberately situated at the intersection of debates about violence in society and violence in representation, which has long been a somewhat sensationalized space; it is an original and stimulating contribution to an otherwise undersubscribed area of intellectual interest. This book will be valuable to anyone interested in the ongoing debate about visuality, violence and death. Visual Studies These essays meticulously examine the history and mythology of the visual media's 'unholy grail'-the spectral 'real' behind film's reality effects. Tracing snuff's evolution from pornography to propaganda, from cult phenomenon to mainstream culture, this is the most comprehensive effort to date to track down the elusive phenomenon hovering at (and often defining) the boundaries between life and death, voyeurism and violence, terror and titillation, art and exploitation, realism and reality. Anyone seeking an unflinching glimpse of media in the digital age cannot ignore this collection. What was unthinkable a decade ago is now routine. Never have violence and terror been at once so visible and, as a result, so banal." - Joel Black, Professor of Comparative Literature, University of Georgia, USA "In the 1970s a toxic brew of urban decay, rising crime rates and the 'porno plague' gave rise to a new myth: that of the snuff film. Although the combination of sex and murder in the feature Snuff (1976) was quickly revealed as a hoax and the FBI could find no evidence that the real thing existed, the concept of the snuff film has endured and, ironically, taken on a life of its own. This collection of fascinating essays advances a scholarly and rigorous consideration of how the fringes of popular culture have become mainstreamed, and how media myths can become disturbing realities." Eric Schaefer, Associate Professor of Visual and Media Arts, Emerson College, USA, and author of "Bold! Daring! Shocking! True!": A History of Exploitation Films, 1919-1959 "Snuff: Real Death and Screen Media is both thorough and wide-ranging in its approaches to the complex and malleable category of the snuff film. This book is destined to become the key text on the representations and public debates which underpin the charged and vital topic of real death on screen, and the cultural, commercial, legal, and affective consequences of its associated myths. Kate Egan, Lecturer in Film Studies, Aberystwyth University, UK, and author of Trash or Treasure? Censorship and the Changing Meanings of the Video Nasties "It is a serious intervention deliberately situated at the intersection of debates about violence in society and violence in representation, which has long been a somewhat sensationalized space; it is an original and stimulating contribution to an otherwise undersubscribed area of intellectual interest." - Alex Adams, Independent Early Career Researcher, These essays meticulously examine the history and mythology of the visual media's 'unholy grail'-the spectral 'real' behind film's reality effects. Tracing snuff's evolution from pornography to propaganda, from cult phenomenon to mainstream culture, this is the most comprehensive effort to date to track down the elusive phenomenon hovering at (and often defining) the boundaries between life and death, voyeurism and violence, terror and titillation, art and exploitation, realism and reality. Anyone seeking an unflinching glimpse of media in the digital age cannot ignore this collection. What was unthinkable a decade ago is now routine. Never have violence and terror been at once so visible and, as a result, so banal.
