Abstract The article investigates two seemingly conflicting critical approaches of haptic and transgressive cinema, which emerged along with the corporeal turn in film studies, in the late 1990s and early 2000s. While haptics operates with undistinguishable figures and demands extreme closeness and an active caressing gaze, transgression is usually seen from a distance and subverts the social, political and ethical order. The paper attempts an examination of the Austrian avant-garde filmmaker Kurt Kren’s Actionist films and enlightens how these two opposing strategies can be present together. Giving a detailed analysis of the films, the article describes an expanded definition of Linda Williams’s body genres, in order to create a new category of horror: the horror of materiality.

触觉过犯。库尔特·克伦电影中的物质恐怖

摘要本文研究了两种看似相互矛盾的触觉电影和跨界电影的批评方法,这些方法是在1990年代末和2000年代初随着电影研究中的物质转向而出现的。触觉以无法分辨的身材运作,需要极度的亲近和活跃的爱抚注视,但通常会从远处看到违规行为,并颠覆了社会,政治和道德秩序。本文试图考察奥地利前卫电影制片人库尔特·克伦(Kurt Kren)的《行动派》电影,并启发这两种对立的策略如何一起出现。通过对影片的详细分析,本文描述了琳达·威廉姆斯(Linda Williams)身体类型的扩展定义,以创建一种新的恐怖类别:对物质性的恐怖。
