Description

His House (2020) is a ghost story about displacement, precarity, and the inescapable afterlives of empire. This lecture situates the film within a global “horror cinema of precarity” that uses the genre to address marginalised experiences. Drawing on postcolonial Gothic and hauntological theory, it explores how Britain’s imperial and capitalist legacies haunt the film atmospherically rather than corporeally. These diffuse colonial ghosts manifest through systems of surveillance, labour, and consumption, reflecting the slow violence faced by refugees in a hostile UK where belonging remains perpetually out of reach.

Venue

The Horse Hospital, Colonnade, WC1N 1JD London
