Death Culture and American Film

We trace the zeitgeist in American film—the market has moved from real people to fake people to dead people. The horror genre is replacing the escape genre which replaced drama, comedy, and adventure film of the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. Now, Satanic and horror films increasingly dominate box office takings. The rise of euthanasia in the medical world comes with it, as Canada leads the world in killing people. We also take a quick look at the slippery slope argument, and how it just might apply to abortion and euthanasia.
