Known for their progressive environmental policies and nature-loving citizens, Nordic countries also produce what may seem a counterintuitive film genre: ecohorror, where distinctions between humans and nature are blurred in unsettling ways. From slashers to arthouse thrillers, transnational Nordic ecohorror films such as Antichrist (dir. Lars von Trier, 2009) and Midsommar (dir. Ari Aster, 2019) have garnered commercial and critical attention, revealing an undercurrent of ecophobia in Nordic culture that belies the region's reputation for environmental friendliness.
In Menacing Environments, Benjamin Bigelow examines how ecohorror rings some of the same alarm bells that climate activists have sounded, suggesting that the proper response to the ongoing climate catastrophe is not optimism and a market-friendly focus on sustainable development, but rather fear and dread. Bigelow argues that ecohorror destabilizes the two pillars of Nordic society—the autonomous individual and the sovereign state. He illustrates how doing away with any clean separation of the domains of human culture from a wild, untamed realm of nature reminds viewers of the complex and often threatening material entanglements between humans and their environments.
Through Bigelow's analysis, ecohorror proves to be a potent vehicle not only for generating a strong affective response in audiences but also for taking on the revered institutions, unquestioned ideological orthodoxies, and claims of cultural exceptionalism in contemporary Nordic societies.

Описание: If we want to feel complete, there is a path for us. Its been in front of us all along, but we didnt know to look there. Perhaps because it was too obvious. Somehow it has eluded the vast majority of us. Has anyone told you, "Hey, look here. This is what this path means and does. This is what youre looking for"? The problem is that its been overlooked and its meaning washed away. It seems there have not been many takers in the relatively recent history. It seems the primary focus for most of Christendom has been on converting people to Jesus with grand promises (which are true), without really guiding them in the purpose of their life as a follower of Christ. The path I am speaking of is ancient. Its the path that Christ taught. It began with Abraham and obeying God. It was refined through Moses in the Torah. Finally, it was perfected through John the Baptist and the man who became known as Jesus, the Christ. This path is called Loving Without Conditions. It is a path that is realizable in this lifetime for each of us.
