Description:
This course explores the history of cult film in America and its relationship to the mainstream industry and other fringe cinemas. The course focuses particularly on the way that cult cinema challenges our ideas of quality, taste, and acceptability. At the same time, it explores questions related to cult audiences, exhibition spaces (drive-ins, art house theaters, midnight movies) fandom and cinephilia, and cult film nostalgia.

ENGL 316L and CINE 316L are the same course.
