Perversion, many would agree, comes in many forms, and has acquired through time different masks ... more Perversion, many would agree, comes in many forms, and has acquired through time different masks that are at times difficult to recognise. Moreover, the perversion has prevailed and overflown our everyday life. However, in this paper we will not focus on something within domains of sexual, rather, the light will be shed on all other forms of deviant behaviour. Namely, for a long period of time homosexuality was considered deviant, sinister, and socially unacceptable. However, in the examples that are to be looked upon in the paper will not only examine homoeroticism, sadomasochism, voyeurism, misogyny, and objectification of women, but also an interplay of violence and erotic. Violence as social phenomenon has become so prevalent in media, and is often covered under the veil of humour that serves more than just a comic relief, but to disguise the thrill that it evokes in audience. What is more, books, movies, or even comic books that lack this apparently important momentum seemingly do not attract that much attention. Now, this paper is going to address and hopefully uncover some of the possible reasons to such fairly contemporary phenomenon of overuse of violence and erotics. Firstly, in order to better understanding of the analysis of Stanley Kubrick’s movie A Clockwork Orange from 1971, Tim Miller’s Deadpool, from 2016, and a Marvel’s comic book The Vision and the Scarlet Witch, published in 1985, theoretical background regarding the matter in question will be provided. Secondly, all material will be analysed in such a way to address perversion of the psyche, show the relation between the violence and erotics, address masculinity-violence paradigm, and stipulate the position and portrayal of women in abovementioned movies and a comic book.
