The Apocalypse is coming...with
a chainsaw ‡ the nature of cruelty
and realism in the thriller
Key words: apocalypse, film genres, fantasy films,
horror, postmodernism, cyborg, radical evil,
cruelty.
This article examines the origins of horror in the
arts as they reveal themselves from the earliest
known forms of cultures, above all in their
apocalyptic visions. This is a tradition that
continues today, most obviously in the most
influential of contemporary art forms ‡ film.
In contrast to older mythological understandings,
however, film adopts a more extreme form and
especially pessimistic understanding of the future.
This is above all the case with non-regenerative
apocalyptic thrillers that this text otherwise
differentiates from classical thrillers and that
warn against the shortcomings brought about
by post-modern culture.
A drastic change in the role of art in society is
happening today and this is also revealed in one
of its oldest motives ‡ that of the apocalypse.
The meaning of realism lies in the effective
representation of both this downfall and its fellow
traveller ‡ horror. This essay tries to prove that its
most effective form of representation takes place
in a low budget environment and - by definition ‡
its raw, documentary connotation.
