| Zusammenfassung: | Considers the technological, economic, and aesthetic histories of the early British video industry as part of the broader global film industryOffers a revisionist history that examines factors that contributed to the common understanding of the video nasties moment" outside of the established and well documented social historyDraws upon global technological histories to better understand how they relate and impact on the British marketplace in the early 1980s, considering how these forces and factors contributed to the economics of the early British video industry Historicises and examines the marketing materials/promotional strategies that are believed to have triggered the video nasties' moral panicExamines the ways in which distributors have capitalised on the video nasties and how that has altered the aesthetic of exploitation / horror film promotion in the United Kingdom and beyondIn 1984, a disparate group of horror films imported from the USA and Europe were banned in the United Kingdom. It is popularly believed that these so-called 'video nasties' were the product of Britain's immoral and disreputable independent video industry and that - following a series of public complaints about the advertising being used to promote these films - a moral panic spontaneously erupted that resulted in the introduction of the Video Recordings Act in 1984.While neither of these statements is entirely accurate, both have contributed to a discursively constructed history that holds the independent video distributors entirely responsible for the events that followed, with the ushering-in of a scheme of government- sanctioned censorship that continues in Britain to this day.Through an exploration of the marketing and distribution of the video nasties, foregrounding technological, economic and aesthetic concerns, Nasty Business complicates the established history and contextualises the video nasties within the broader global landscape of an emergent home video industry. |
