Description

Conspiracy Cinema Propaganda, Politics and Paranoia explores a growing phenomenon that has had a significant influence on contemporary politics. David Ray Carter examines 'conspiracy cinema', a type of documentary film that presents alternative explanations for events such as 9/11, the Kennedy assassinations, Roswell, and the AIDS pandemic.

With an estimated half a billion viewers worldwide, conspiracy cinema is a widely popular form of entertainment. This book offers a unique approach to understanding this movement, presenting a light-hearted and interactive guide to the films themselves. Carter evaluates the plausibility of both official and conspiratorial explanations, making for an engaging read.

Through its chapters on conspiracy, ranking the documentaries, and evaluating explanations, Conspiracy Cinema Propaganda, Politics and Paranoia provides a fresh perspective on this transgressive and intriguing form of modern entertainment.
