Profiterolé of Doom riffs on the harbinger trope of horror films, and Greek Mythology’s Cassandra - cursed by Fate with the gift of prophecy but ignored and mocked as mad. A stranger in a strange land, baffled by cognitive dissonance, Profiterolé of Doom hypes himself as a provocative hybrid of the Pied Piper of Hamelin and the Panda Cheese commercial's vengeful panda, but he won’t make a blind bit of difference. He dances slo-mo flamenco in the eye of the storm that Curtis warned us about in Take Shelter (Jeff Nichols, 2011). The ribbon ‘wings’ of his mourning suit slice and dice the deceptive screen/surface of necro-capitalist ‘reality’ like it's a Lucio Fontana canvas.

" There are two solutions for the depressive, both equally unproductive: to run away in pursuit of adventures and loves that are always disappointing, or to lock oneself away, inconsolable and aphasic, face to face with the unnamed Thing. "
Julia Kristeva
