Sinopse

Cult Movie Legends explores the captivating phenomenon of movies that, despite initial failure or ridicule, achieve enduring cult status and devoted fan bases. This book delves into the film history behind these unconventional narratives, examining how factors like low-budget filmmaking and genre-bending contribute to their unique appeal. It reveals how audience reception and fan culture, including online communities, play a crucial role in sustaining these films' legacies.

 
The book begins by defining "cult film" and establishing an analytical framework, progressing to explore the specific characteristics that often mark films destined for cult status. For example, movies like Plan 9 from Outer Space demonstrate how even films considered to be "bad" can garner dedicated followers. Subsequent chapters investigate audience participation and the broader cultural impact of cult films, examining their influence on mainstream cinema and various art forms. 

 
Through film analysis, historical research, and audience studies, Cult Movie Legends offers a comprehensive look at this cinematic landscape. The book connects to fields such as sociology and media theory, providing insights into fandom and cultural consumption. It empowers readers to critically analyze films and understand the forces that shape their cultural significance, making it valuable for film enthusiasts and students alike.

  • City Resilience - Building Stronger Urban Communities - cover

    City Resilience - Building...

    In an era of rapid urbanization, cities are facing an array of challenges that threaten the sustainability and stability of urban life. From climate change-induced natural disasters to social inequality and economic instability, the vulnerabilities of urban environments are increasingly evident. As the global population continues to concentrate in cities, the importance of urban resilience has never been more critical. Urban resilience refers to a city's capacity to withstand, adapt to, and recover from various shocks and stresses, ensuring the continued wellbeing of its residents and the functionality of its infrastructure. 
    The resilience of urban communities is not just about withstanding external shocks such as earthquakes, floods, or pandemics, but also about the ability to respond to longer-term stresses like climate change, economic fluctuations, and demographic shifts. Cities are complex systems, where the interplay of social, environmental, economic, and technological factors can either contribute to vulnerability or foster the development of adaptive capacities. Building resilience, therefore, requires a multi-dimensional approach that integrates these various aspects, creating a robust foundation upon which cities can thrive despite inevitable challenges. 
    One of the primary reasons urban resilience has gained such prominence is the growing recognition of the vulnerability of cities in the face of climate change. With rising sea levels, more frequent and severe storms, and heatwaves becoming the norm, cities are exposed to significant risks that threaten public safety, economic stability, and infrastructure. Moreover, rapid urban growth often leads to poor urban planning, inadequate infrastructure, and limited resources to address emerging problems.

    Shortlisted for the First Nation Communities READ 2018-2019 Award
    On her first book tour at the age of 26, Lee Maracle was asked a question from the audience, one she couldn't possibly answer at that moment. As time passed, she was asked countless similar questions, all of them too big to answer, but not too large to contemplate. These questions, which touch upon subjects such as citizenship, segregation, labour, law, prejudice, and reconciliation, to name a few, are the heart of MyConversations With Canadians.
    In personal essays that are both conversational and direct, Maracle seeks not to provide answers to these questions. Rather, she thinks through each one, drawing on a multitude of experiences as a First Nations leader, a woman, a mother, and a grandmother. MyConversations With Canadians presents a tour de force exploration into Maracle's own history and a reimagining of the future of our nation.

    Subtle Abuse - Indirect Forms of...

    Subtle abuse is a form of psychological harm that often goes unnoticed, yet its effects can be just as damaging as more overt forms of mistreatment. Unlike physical abuse, which leaves visible marks, or direct verbal abuse, which is easier to identify, subtle abuse operates in the shadows, disguised as normal behavior, misunderstandings, or even acts of care. This makes it particularly dangerous because victims may not recognize it until significant emotional and psychological damage has already occurred. 
    At its core, subtle abuse is about control, manipulation, and emotional harm inflicted in ways that are difficult to detect. It can take many forms, including gaslighting, passive-aggressive behavior, emotional withholding, and undermining someone’s confidence in indirect ways. A common characteristic of subtle abuse is its plausibility—it often leaves victims doubting their own experiences and questioning whether they are simply overreacting. Because the harm is delivered in small, often deniable doses, victims may struggle to explain their distress to others, further isolating them in their experience. 
    One of the most insidious aspects of subtle abuse is its ability to erode a person’s sense of self over time. The victim may start to feel insecure, anxious, or even incapable, not realizing that their mental state has been shaped by constant, indirect put-downs or the gradual withholding of emotional support. For example, a partner who consistently dismisses concerns with phrases like “You’re too sensitive” or “I was just joking” may be engaging in subtle emotional abuse by invalidating the other person’s feelings. Similarly, a boss who subtly undermines an employee’s work without overt criticism may be manipulating them into self-doubt and compliance.
