In a discussion that encompasses horror, exploitation cinema, and extreme or violent porn, she touches upon the manner in which apparently diverse discourses of authenticity and bodily event can be related back to the pornographic frenzy of the visible. When read in the generic context of adult entertainment as opposed to that of horror, she argues, "a flinch, a convulsion, a welt, even the flow of blood itself, would seem to offer incontrovertible proof that a woman’s body, so resistant to the involuntary show of pleasure, has been touched, “moved” by some force" (194). In this theoretical re-imagining, blood replaces semen as the source of pornography’s authenticity effect; whilst the money shot proves (according to the particular standards and conventions of the genre) that pleasure really has been achieved and experienced, it is posited that blood can also be used to achieve the same effect.
