    "YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN" SCREENPLAY by GENE WILDER FIRST DRAFT FADE IN: EXT. FRANKENSTEIN CASTLE A BOLT OF LIGHTNING! A CRACK OF THUNDER! On a distant, rainy hill, the old Frankenstein castle, as we knew and loved it, is illuminated by ANOTHER BOLT OF LIGHTNING. MUSIC: AN EERIE TRANSYLVANIAN LULLABY begins to PLAY in the b.g. as we MOVE SLOWLY CLOSER to the castle. It is completely dark, except for one room -- a study in the corner of the castle -- which is only lit by candles. Now we are just outside a rain-splattered window of the study. We LOOK IN and SEE: INT. STUDY - NIGHT An open coffin rests on a table we can not see it's contents. As the CAMERA SLOWLY CIRCLES the coffin for a BETTER VIEW... A CLOCK BEGINS TO CHIME: "ONE," "TWO," "THREE," "FOUR..." We are ALMOST FACING the front of the coffin. "FIVE," "SIX," "SEVEN," "EIGHT..." The CAMERA STOPS. Now it MOVES UP AND ABOVE the satin-lined coffin. "NINE," "TEN," "ELEVEN," "T W E L V E!" CUT TO: THE EMBALMED HEAD OF BEAUFORT FRANKENSTEIN Half of still clings to the waxen balm; the other half has decayed to skull. Below his head is a skeleton, whose bony fingers cling to a metal box. A HAND reaches in to grasp the metal box. It lifts the box halfway out of the coffin -- the skeleton's fingers rising, involuntarily, with the box. Then, as of by force of will, the skeleton's fingers grab the box back and place it where it was. Now the "Hand" -- using its other hand -- grabs the box back from the skeleton's fingers.

    CHAPTER 1 Young Frankenstein I was interested in the secrets of the sky and the earth, of the natural world. y name is Victor Frankenstein. I come from Geneva, in Switzerland, and M my family is one of the most important in that country. When I was very young, my parents travelled a lot. I was their only child, and they took me with them. My parents were kind and they loved me very much. My earliest memories are happy ones. When I was about five years old, we stayed for a week at Lake Como in Italy. My mother was a kind woman and visited a poor family on a farm. They had five children. Four had dark hair like the man and his wife, but the other child, a girl, had fair hair and looked quite different. The farmer’s wife told my mother the child’s history. The girl’s name was Elizabeth Lavenza, and she was the daughter of a rich man from Milan. Her mother died when she was born. Elizabeth’s father died too, trying to free his country from a bad government. He lost everything – his house and his money. It was all taken away. Hispages child was left with this family. My mother wanted to have another child very much. And she wanted a daughter. When she saw Elizabeth, she loved her immediately. She wanted to bring Elizabeth up as her own child. She talked to the farmer and his wife about her idea. The farmer and his wife loved the girl, but they agreed.

  • Screams on Screens: Paradigms of Horror
    Screams on Screens: Paradigms of Horror Barry Keith Grant Brock University [email protected] Abstract This paper offers a broad historical overview of the ideology and cultural roots of horror films. The genre of horror has been an important part of film history from the beginning and has never fallen from public popularity. It has also been a staple category of multiple national cinemas, and benefits from a most extensive network of extra-cinematic institutions. Horror movies aim to rudely move us out of our complacency in the quotidian world, by way of negative emotions such as horror, fear, suspense, terror, and disgust. To do so, horror addresses fears that are both universally taboo and that also respond to historically and culturally specific anxieties. The ideology of horror has shifted historically according to contemporaneous cultural anxieties, including the fear of repressed animal desires, sexual difference, nuclear warfare and mass annihilation, lurking madness and violence hiding underneath the quotidian, and bodily decay. But whatever the particular fears exploited by particular horror films, they provide viewers with vicarious but controlled thrills, and thus offer a release, a catharsis, of our collective and individual fears. Author Keywords Genre; taboo; ideology; mythology. Introduction Insofar as both film and videogames are visual forms that unfold in time, there is no question that the latter take their primary inspiration from the former. In what follows, I will focus on horror films rather than games, with the aim of introducing video game scholars and gamers to the rich history of the genre in the cinema. I will touch on several issues central to horror and, I hope, will suggest some connections to videogames as well as hints for further reflection on some of their points of convergence.

  • Hotel Transylvania1
    kids+media 1/13 Angst und ihre Überwindung – „There's nothing wrong with being scared, as long as it doesn't change who you are“: Monströse Bedeutungsgewebe in kinder- freundlichen Animationsfilmen Von Tamara Werner Ein Hotel voller Monster. Emsiges Treiben herrscht in der Eingangshalle eines riesigen und abgele- genen Gruselschlosses, des Hotel Transylvania1. Unterschiedlichste Monster strömen durch die Ein- gangstore des Hotels, welches seine Gäste zur Urlaubszeit willkommen heisst und das Personal des Hauses gehörig ins Schwitzen bringt. So haben es beispielsweise die grünen Hexen mit grossen Na- sen und schwarzer Kleidung sehr eilig. Denn die knorrigen Damen sind die Putzfrauen des Hauses und haben Einiges zu tun, denn auch Monster machen Dreck, wünschen aber Sauberkeit. Die Gäste – Yetis, Werwölfe, Vampire, Skelette, Mumien und viele andere (Abb. 1) – kommen von überall her, um in den Mauern des Hotels mit ihren Freunden, den Urlaub zu verbringen, sich im Ambiente der bunten Schar umsorgen zu lassen und sich erholen zu können. Diese Erholung wird ihnen ermög- licht durch die schützende Sicherheit der abgelegenen und abgeschotteten Burg, die sich fernab von menschlichem Leben befindet. Abb. 1: Graf Dracula begrüsst seine bunte Monsterschar (00:09:33 Hotel Transylvania 2012). Die Monster in Hotel Transylvania – besonders Frankensteins Monster und Graf Dracula – verweisen einerseits auf ihre populärkulturellen Horror-Wurzeln, werden andererseits aber in eine neue fanta- stische Konstellation verlegt und individuell weiterentwickelt.

  • PAPER #2: CRITICAL COMPARISON (20%) Due Monday 4/8
    PAPER #2: CRITICAL COMPARISON (20%) Due Monday 4/8 For your second paper, you will write a 1100 word (minimum) critical review of an adaptation of Frankenstein. Compare and contrast both versions of the story, and argue ​ ​ whether the newer version is a good adaptation of the original work. After we finish reading Frankenstein in class, choose a film or stage adaptation to compare/contrast with ​ ​ the book. - NOTE: If you find an adaptation of Frankenstein that is in a different medium other than film or ​ ​ theater, such as television, graphic novels, video games, etc., then you are free to do that. But please avoid silly cartoons that merely draw inspiration from Frankenstein, like Scooby Doo or ​ ​ Hotel Transylvania, as those don’t generally make for good papers. - The adaptation you choose can be either old or recent. It can be a serious take on the story, like Kenneth Branagh’s Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1994), or a more comedic film, like Mel ​ ​ Brooks’s Young Frankenstein (1974). It can also be a somewhat loose adaptation or ​ ​ reinterpretation, like Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie (2012). ​ ​ Once you have chosen your adaptation, analyze it and write a persuasive essay arguing whether or not the adaptation is a good representation of the original story. ​ - Your whole paper should be centered around your claim, which should be a statement about the ​ ​ quality of this adaptation: is it a good or bad adaptation? Is it faithful to the original story? Does it improve upon the story, or does it change it in negative ways? - Support your claim with evidence and reasoning.
