Exploitation as a Movement

Abstract

The concluding chapter of ‘The Style of Sleaze’ enters into a discourse about how the term ‘exploitation’ has entered into the pubic and critical discourse to reference a myriad of different motion pictures, some of them major Hollywood productions. In conclusion, the book argues that exploitation cinema deserves further exploration – especially given how little has been explored, academically, as regards the cinema of this type that has emerged from other countries and which warrants similar investigation.
