This book analyzes how contemporary popular films with fantastic
themes, including Candyman, Frozen, The Cabin in the Woods, and The
Incredible Burt Wonderstone, cultivate neoliberal subjectivities.
These films promise dramatic change, but they too often deliver
more of the same. Although proponents maintain the illusion that
the militant enforcement of freemarket economics will resolve
racism, climate change, and imperialism, their magical thinking
actually fuels the crises. Magical Thinking, Fantastic Film, and
the Illusions of Neoliberalism explores the ways in which the
visual economies of Hollywood fantasy compliment this particular
political economy.
