Framing
Monsters:
Fantasy Film and Social Alienation reconsiders the cultural significance
of this storytelling mode by investigating how films seemingly divorced from reality and
presented in a context of timclessncss are, in fact, encoded with the social practices and
beliefs of their era of production.
Situating representative fantasy films within tbeir cultural moments, Joshua David
Bellin
illustrates how fantastic visions of monstrous others seek to propagate negative
stereotypes of despised groups and support invidious hierarchies of social control. Fram¬
ing Monsters not only contests dismissive attitudes toward fantasy but also challenges the
psychoanalytic criticism that has thus far dominated its limited critical study.
Bellin locates King Kong
(1933)
within the era of lynching to evince how the film
protects whiteness against supposed aggressions of a black predator and reviews The
Wizard of Oz
(1939)
as a product of the Depression s economic anxieties. From there, the
study moves to the cult classic animated Sinbad trilogy
(1958-1977)
of
Ray Harryhausen,
films rampant with xenophobic fears of the Middle East as relevant today as when the
series was originally produced.
Bdlin focuses on the image of the monstrous woman and the threat of reproductive
freedom found
m
Aliens
(1986),
Jurassic Park
(1993),
and Species
(1995)
and on depictions
of the mentally ill as dangerous deviants in
12
Monkeys
(1996)
and The Cell
(2000).
An
investigation into physical freakishness guides his approach to Edward Scissorhands
(1590)
and Beauty and the Beast (1991)
.
He concludes with a discussion oiX-Men
(2000)
and Lord of the Rings
(2001—2003),
commercial giants that extend a recent trend toward
critical self-reflection within the genre while still participating in the continuity of
social alienation.
