520    $a "This volume explores the paradoxical appeal of the lower reaches of cinema. It looks at films from the B-movies of the 1930s to the mockbusters of today, and from the New York underground to Turkey's Yeşilc̦am studios (and their YouTube afterlife). Critically examining the reasons for studying, denigrating or celebrating the detritus of film history, it also considers the place of a trash aesthetic within and beyond 1960s American avant-garde and the cult of trash presented in the fanzines of the 1980s. It draws on debates about cult, paracinema and camp, arguing that trash cinema exists in relation to these but brings with it a particular history that includes the ordinary as well as the strange. Trash Cinema places these debates, and the strand of self-proclaimed low culture that emerged in the second half of the twentieth century, within the context of American cinema history and international cinephilia"--Back cover.
