Located in Malibu, the oceanfront Barbie DreamHouse created by Airbnb is the latest in a series of global marketing stunts to promote Greta Gerwig’s new film Barbie, the first live-action adventure movie about the iconic Mattel doll.

Key Points:

Located in Malibu, the oceanfront Barbie DreamHouse created by Airbnb is the latest in a series of global marketing stunts to promote Greta Gerwig’s new film Barbie, the first live-action adventure movie about the iconic Mattel doll.
On the pink and white wall behind the water slide, the Barbie logo has been graffitied over with Ken’s name.
The image then cuts to an infinity pool where a set of three giant custom pool floats spells “KEN”.
The camera zooms in rapidly before quickly zooming out and resuming its god-like surveillance of a house seemingly devoid of human life.

Has Ken killed Barbie?

Airbnb’s life-size DreamHouse, as captured in the video, has a very different feel to trailers for the upcoming Barbie movie.
My immediate reaction upon watching the footage was: “What has he done with the body?
Airbnb’s official press release confirms that Ken has taken over Barbie’s house, going as far as letting guests check in for free while she is “away”.

Uncanny matters

The uncanny – a state of fear and unease – has been defined in a variety of different, albeit overlapping, ways.
Uncanny feelings are triggered by their failure to act in a recognisably human manner, despite their appearance.
In this sense, Barbie’s Malibu beach house (in both Airbnb’s and Gerwig’s versions) evokes the uncanny.
On the other hand, Airbnb’s garish dwelling annexes more troublesome elements of the uncanny.
