Too often dismissed as 'trash cinema', exploitation films have
nevertheless become sincerely appreciated cult objects on home
video. In this new study, David Church explores how the history of
drive-in theatres and urban grind houses has descended to home
video formats. Focusing on both the re-release of archival
exploitation films on DVD and the recent cycle of
'retrosploitation' films like Grindhouse, Machete, Viva, and Black
Dynamite, Church examines how nostalgia shapes the aesthetics and
politics of exploitation films and the fan cultures devoted to
them.
