The American empire emerged from the shadows of World War II. As the nation's influence swept the globe with near impunity, a host of evil forces followed—from racism, exploitation, and military invasion to killer clowns, flying saucers, and monsters borne of a fear of the other. By viewing American imperial history through the prism of the horror genre, Dark Carnivals lays bare how the genre shaped us, distracted us, and gave form to a violence as American as apple pie.

Loses Way in Last 3rd
Revisado: 01-05-23
It starts very strong, but he really stretches to fit his thesis by the end, and has some really questionable reads on certain works. Some weird editorial oversights too, such as being wrong about what films of the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise Wes Craven directed, or Eli Roth’s name.
