lex de la Iglesia, initially championed by Pedro Almodvar, and at one time the enfant terrible of Spanish film, still makes film critics nervous. The director of some of the most important films of the PostFranco era Accin mutante, El da de la bestia, Muertos de risa receives here the first full length study of his work. Breaking away from the pious tradition of acclaiming arthouse auteurs, The cinema of lex de la Iglesia tackles a new sort of beast: the popular auteur, who brings the provocation of the avantgarde to popular genres such as horror and comedy.This book brings together AngloAmerican film theory, an exploration of the legal and economic history of Spanish audiovisual culture, a comprehensive knowledge of Spanish cultural forms and traditions (esperpento, sainete costumbrista) with a detailed textual analysis of all of lex de la Iglesias seven feature films.
