Description |
Abstract |
Looks at the films of Rob Zombie and argues that Zombie's use of popular music in his horror films produces not so much a counternarrative as an alternative reading that resists conservatism rather than affirming it. By relentlessly pairing extreme brutality with popular often beloved tunes from the (primarily) American past, Zombie exposes the violence that lies embedded in American history and society. The music prevents the horror the films reveal from being othered; just as the music belongs to society, so does the violence. |
