Production Value
Pulp fiction at it's best. To find one dumped corpse is a shock. To discover another a few days later, this time the dismembered body of a beautiful woman with whom you'd been briefly involved, makes you a suspect. Life for screenwriter Nick Slade takes a far more perilous turn when his actress girlfriend, Clarice, decides she'll help Nick clear his name. ... "Now here's how it is," Luan whispered to Clarice. "You're also going to tell me who else you talked to. If you scream, I'll slice off your nose. If I think you're lying to me, I'll cut out your tongue. Nod your head if you understand me." This novel unspools during the seismic shift from celluloid to digital filmmaking, proving once again that nothing in the movie biz, especially the world of independent cinema, is ever what it seems.

Killer Tapes and Shattered Screens
Since the mid-1980s, US audiences have watched the majority of movies they see on a video platform, be it VHS, DVD, Blu-ray, Video On Demand, or streaming media. Annual video revenues have exceeded box office returns for over twenty-five years. In short, video has become the structuring discourse of US movie culture. Killer Tapes and Shattered Screens examines how prerecorded video reframes the premises and promises of motion picture spectatorship. But instead of offering a history of video technology or reception, Caetlin Benson-Allott analyzes how the movies themselves understand and represent the symbiosis of platform and spectator. Through case studies and close readings that blend indus...
