Resumo: Based on the representation of black people in contemporary horror films, the article reflects on the symbolic construction of narrative devices about the biological allegorical mechanism of colonial hunger, through the lens of raciality. The concept of cosmic cannibalism and mouth-machine make it possible to understand the violent and figurative act of eating based on a film analysis of the film The Cannibal Club (2019). The decomposition of the work's narrative articulation of horror enables the exploration of the symbolic structures associated with extractive colonial violence represented by the parable of the act of devouring, cannibalizing and tearing submissive black bodies into pieces in an archetypal conjuration of the colonial geology of hunger. The application of film analysis establishes understandings about which bodies are edible in a society with structural eating disorders. Cannibalism emerges as a relational key with the spectator by tensioning the act of eating with the sense of exploring and devouring, based on the hierarchies of race and class that demarcate power relations in a colonial-global food chain. Vulnerable food as part of a game of extractive supremacy.

Los conceptos de canibalismo cósmico y boca-máquina permiten comprender el acto violento y figurativo de comer a partir de un análisis de la película El club Canibal (2019). La descomposición de la articulación narrativa del horror de la obra permite la exploración de las estructuras simbólicas asociadas con la violencia colonial extractiva representada por la parábola del acto de devorar, canibalizar y desgarrar cuerpos negros sumisos en una conjuración arquetípica de la geología colonial del hambre. La aplicación del análisis cinematográfico establece conocimientos sobre qué cuerpos son comestibles en una sociedad con trastornos alimentarios estructurales. El canibalismo emerge como clave relacional con el espectador al tensionar el acto de comer con el sentido de explorar y devorar, a partir de las jerarquías de raza y clase que demarcan las relaciones de poder en una cadena alimentaria colonial-global. Alimentos vulnerables como parte de un juego de supremacía extractiva.A partir da representação de pessoas pretas nos filmes de terror contemporâneos, o artigo reflete sobre a construção simbólica de artifícios narrativos sobre o mecanismo alegórico biológico da fome colonial, através da ótica da racialidade. O conceito de canibalismo cósmico e máquina-boca possibilitam compreender o ato violento e figurativo de comer a partir da análise do filme O clube dos canibais (2019). A decomposição da articulação narrativa de terror da obra possibilita a exploração das estruturas simbólicas associadas à violência colonial extrativista representada pela parábola do ato de devorar, canibalizar e despedaçar corpos pretos “submissos” em uma conjuração arquetípica da geologia colonial da fome. A aplicação da análise fílmica se valida a partir da reflexão crítica que Denise Ferreira da Silva e bell hooks propõem sobre as questões da racialidade e do capitalismo e de sua relação com o imaginário, estabelecendo compreensões sobre quais corpos são comestíveis em uma sociedade com transtorno alimentar estrutural. O canibalismo surge como uma chave relacional com o espectador ao tensionar o ato de comer ao sentido de explorar e devorar, a partir das hierarquias de raça e de classe que demarcam as relações de poder em uma cadeia alimentar colonial-global.
