What does it mean to see horror in capitalism? What can horror
tell us about the state and nature of capitalism?

Blending film criticism, cultural theory, and philosophy,
Capitalism: A Horror Story examines literature, film, and
philosophy, from Frankenstein to contemporary cinema, delving
into the socio-political function of the monster, the haunted
nature of the digital world, and the inescapable horror of
contemporary capitalist politics.

Revitalizing the tradition of Romantic anticapitalism and
offering a “dark way of being red”, Capitalism: A Horror Story
argues for a Gothic Marxism, showing how we can find
revolutionary hope in horror- a site of monstrous becoming that
opens the door to a Utopian future.
