The Returned: Les Revenants - Genre

Les Revenants

  • 26 November 2012 on Canal+
  • United Kingdom 9 June 2013 on Channel 4
  • 2 series, 8 episodes each
  • Based on the French film 'They came back'
  • (Les Revenants) (dir. Robin Campillo 2004)
  • Created by Fabrice Gobert

We have many different story arcs, so it has a unique and unconventional narrative. This entire show is based on a range of hermeneutic codes of mystery.

Intertextuality between other media products, creepy children in Les Revenants gives intertextual reference to horror movies with creepy children for example Orphan

Experimental and follows a non-linear structure.

Cult TV
Intense and passionate fanbase, a cult tv show invites the fanbase to do things with it.
It creates a separate world and fans may want to escape into this world known as escapism.

Iconography - stuff that we see or hear that essentially informs us of the genre.
