Capitalism Hates You

"We may hate capitalism but not nearly as much as capitalism hates us. Linking the affect of hatred to the aesthetics of horror film, Joshua Gooch persuasively contends that twenty-first-century horror offers vital diagnostic tools. This fiercely smart book compiles a remarkably diverse archive of contemporary horror films and provides illuminating readings of those films alongside an equally diverse archive of radical political and economic thought, from Marxist-feminism to Afropessimism."-Annie McClanahan, author of Dead Pledges: Debt, Crisis, and Twenty-First-Century Culture "Joshua Gooch’s Capitalism Hates You offers crystal-clear explications of Marxist theory and then, in seven carefully sequenced chapters, applies them in lucid and convincing ways to demonstrate how a range of contemporary horror films expresses capitalism’s hostility to life. This is a book not just for fans of horror but for everyone interested in the ways films embed and communicate values, judgments, and affects."-Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock, author of Gothic Things: Dark Enchantment and Anthropocene Anxiety
