3. Clive Barker: a hellish BDSM genealogy and queer Armageddon


★ Several significant characteristics since the age of Clive Barker and
Anne Rice
（the former’s voice as a transsexual-leatherman, the later as a female gay）

◇ from singular fiend to a clan of old-souls: 地盤，領域，氏族
從「魔物不可踰越界線」（前現代）到「無處不走火，無界不入魔」（當前）
◇ told within the demon’s narrative: confessions of promiscuous philanders
◇ a “realistic” fable on a BDSM clan in Armageddon with conformist humanity
◇ an intricate fabrication on a LGBT community in its demonized outlet, which
refuses the interpellation/incorporation of reproductive sex



★ Clive Barker’s immortal torture chamber

● Human v.s. “Us” (a gathering/cabal of chimeras)
Humanity served as food, parody, and a product of cheap design
A Lacanian psychoanalytic reading: Cliver Barker’s pandemonium as “One”
Sever a ultimate antagonism, reducing human-ness/humanity as pure negation

● Within a Clive Barker’s cosmos, it is no longer a duality of mind and flesh
an expenditure of mutilated flesh includes/inscribes all the meanings of
what a petrified, transmogrified hell is (in its multiple forms)
no passing as normal appearances, only murdering/plundering its way out

●An anal-Hell in perpetual intercourse with an excremental Devilish cock

●The cancellation of internal/external boundary:
the gutter is turned inside out; the skin is the entry passage into a
visceral World


★ a practicing (textual) rite/ride on a trans-queer dungeon ecology: Hellraiser

Pinhead（針頭人）and its kin：a realization of nightmarish Real
inverted Iron Maiden, BDSM modification, policing the pansexual universe







★ a writing of a monster’s own: on the biblical beauty of inferno and its
inhabitants
Galilee: a family saga in its most denaturalized extravaganza

● 擁有超自然能力與近乎永生的肉身的巴巴洛絲家族，本身即是一個巨大的「夢幻物」（
fantasmatic object）

● 「嬰孩城池」（L’Enfant）這座包含典藏怪奇超生命體的古宅，收納了人類變形為魔物的化
身與類似人類的奇幻變形者，它象徵了時空生產的形影罔兩（shade of light and darkness,
penumbra）


★ queer implosion and a ruthless carnage within infernal kinship:
The Last Illusion

● 出生是為了謀殺世界（born to murder the world）成為酷兒怪物的生殖驅動力
a pricking anal obscenity: all monsters born to the guttural shit-hole

● the manipulation of a materialist world-in-entirety is the backdrop of
all spectacles

● 魔法師的慘烈廝殺：再現了此時此刻、角逐名位權限的學院（邊緣）性鬥爭
