The comic horror of the new Joker trailer
appears to be, at its heart, a horror movie.
There’s always been something more frightening about the Joker than other supervillains. Perhaps it’s because the character has his origins in horror, the 1928 silent filmfrom which co-creator Bill Finger drew inspiration. The pale skin and the rigor mortis grin all create a portrait of death rather than the vitality commonly associated with red-cheeked clowns.
By taking a character like that and positioning them as our lead, are we supposed to sympathize with him? The latest trailer certainly gives us reasons why Arthur Fleck is rejected by his fellow citizens of Gotham, his comedic idol, and even his psychiatrist. Perhaps there is room to sympathize without ignoring the fact that the film may be a cautionary take against letting sympathy become empathy.
