Flicker is a novel by Theodore Roszak published in 1991.
The novel is about a film scholar who, upon studying the work of fictional B-movie director Max Castle, becomes convinced that Castle's films, through the usage of subliminal messages and symbolic imagery, portend the apocalypse by way of making its viewers disgusted with sex, part of a conspiracy theory by descendants of the Cathars who disliked the human body and procreation.
Director Darren Aronofsky is no longer developing a film adaptation.
