Abstract
Placing the Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK directed zombie comedy Go Goa Gone (2013) within the recent zombie movie spurt of production in South Asia, this paper analyzes the ambivalent position adopted by the film text towards discourses of neoliberalism and the desires it unleashes in India. I argue that Go Goa Gone demonstrates a playful and ironic engagement with the vicissitudes of everyday life in urban centers in India and also with the new economies of affect, especially those fueled by relatively novel patterns of consumption and participation in forms of new media. Simultaneously the essay also perpetuates some problematic aspects of racialized cultural fantasies associated in India with the paradoxically inside-outside topos of Goa.
