【 摘 要 】

Within this document I examine personal accounts and relevant research surrounding social inadequacy,freaks, the sideshow, bullying, and school violence. I aim to draw parallels between those who are marginalizedby society, and humanity’s underlying fear of vulnerability and death. My thesis project, RedBlob Massacre, brings these ideas into the context of a silent horror film combined with live performance.I discuss the process of my project as a reflection of these issues, and offer a conclusion that ruminates onart as a medium for advocating tolerance and the celebration of human differences.
