You should watch the documentary American Nightmare it covers the socio-cultural anxieties post-Vietnam a little.
It's a really poorly worded question IMO because the fetishising of violence hasn't really been used in that way. I guess you could grasp at straws and prove it somehow. Plenty of examples of horror reflecting socities flaws/anxieties (Romero's work for example) but I doesn't have anything to do with fetishising violence.
