Abstract

In this paper, a search for some psychosocial, sociocultural, sociodemographic, and socioeconomic correlates with the affinity for the fantastic (limited to film) is made. The fantastic is considered that which contrasts the everyday in a meaningful but not rational manner, and the mentioned subgenres (science fiction, fantasy, and horror) are defined post-hoc by the used leitmotifs. Weber's theory of rationalization is used to explain the common status of the fantastic as being inferior to the conceived real, therefore the basic research hypothesis states that there is a negative correlation between inclination to economic materialism and the affinity for the fantastic. The survey was executed on a sample of 168 students from various croatian universities. The basic hypothesis was rejected, but with noting that the relation between the tested values would probably be different on a more extensive (and thus more appropriate for this subject) sample.
