Coming Events
THE STYRENE SHEET VOL. 43, No.10 WWW.SVSM.ORG October 2009 A Publication of the Silicon Valley Scale Modelers, A chartered Chapter of International Plastic Modeler’s Society, USA branch. Editor’s Ravings – this month’s editor, Mick Burton Scary is as scary does. How eerily coincident that the latest issue of the IPMS/USA Journal showed up this week in my home mail, with lead editorial by Styrene Sheet Alumnus Chris Bucholtz including material which now informs my own effort here! Chris reflects on reasons not entirely obvious to many looking solely on as consumers of the Journal, as to why coverage of the recent USA Nationals in Columbus was not the main thrust of this Journal issue which does follow about two months after event occurred. Time and energy management dealing with the sheer volume of finished yet actually raw material. With a desire to produce a product of coverage at least equal in quality to that of the items in focus (namely the very lovely works in miniature and competition) Being delivered by folks who have far too much going on in their lives yet do this work too. Having been one of the crew members in the Judging and the Photography teams thus a witness to the truly monumental shoe horning of much quality effort into a tiny amount of time to deliver results, I know first hand what he was writing about. This month’s Sheet was on my responsibility roster when I left for Columbus. Seemed at the time a far away and far easier effort than it ended up, a reminder of how quickly many ever so small projects can suddenly add up to massive time/energy monsters hungry for more of both when you no longer have a bit of either to spare.

[email protected] [my preferred method] 812-335-9868 (home) This syllabus is available in alternative formats upon request. Overview The vampire is one of the most popular and enduring images in the world, giving rise to hundreds of monster movies around the globe every year, not to mention novels, short stories, plays, TV shows, and commercial merchandise. Yet the Western vampire image that we know from the film, television, and literature of today is very different from its eastern European progenitor. Nina Auerbach has said that "every age creates the vampire that it needs." In this course we will explore the eastern European origins of the vampire, similar entities in other cultures that predate them, and how the vampire in its look, nature, vulnerabilities, and threat has changed over the centuries. This approach will provide us with the means to learn about the geography, village and urban cultures, traditional social structure, and religions of eastern Europe; the nature and manifestations of Evil and the concept of Limited Good; physical, temporal, and societal boundaries and ritual passage that accompany them; and major historical and intellectual periods (the settlement of Europe, the Age of Reason, Romanticism, Neo-classicism, the Enlightenment, the Victorian era, up to today).

The Elizabeth Bathory Story
Nar. umjet. 46/1, 2009, pp. 133-159, L. Kürti, The Symbolic Construction of the Monstruous… Original scientific paper Received: 2nd Jan. 2009 Accepted: 15th Feb. 2009 UDK 392.28:291.13] LÁSZLÓ KÜRTI University of Miskolc, Miskolc THE SYMBOLIC CONSTRUCTION OF THE MONSTROUS – THE ELIZABETH BATHORY STORY This article analyzes several kinds of monsters in western popular culture today: werewolves, vampires, morlaks, the blood-countess and other creatures of the underworld. By utilizing the notion of the monstrous, it seeks to return to the most fundamental misconception of ethnocentrism: the prevailing nodes of western superiority in which tropes seem to satisfy curiosities and fantasies of citizens who should know better but in fact they do not. The monstrous became staples in western popular cultural production and not only there if we take into account the extremely fashionable Japanese and Chinese vampire and werewolf fantasy genre as well. In the history of East European monstrosities, the story of Countess Elizabeth Bathory has a prominent place. Proclaimed to be the most prolific murderess of mankind, she is accused of torturing young virgins, tearing the flesh from their living bodies with her teeth and bathing in their blood in her quest for eternal youth. The rise and popularity of the Blood Countess (Blutgräfin), one of the most famous of all historical vampires, is described in detail. In the concluding section, examples are provided how biology also uses vampirism and the monstrous in taxonomy and classification. Key words: scholarship; monstrosity; vampirism; blood-countess; Elizabeth Bathory There are several kinds of monsters in western popular culture today: werewolves, vampires, morlaks, the blood-countess and other creatures of the underworld.

JACK ARNOLD Di Renato Venturelli
JACK ARNOLD di Renato Venturelli Tra gli autori della fantascienza anni ‘50, che rinnovò la tradizione del cinema fantastico e dell’horror, il nome che si impone con più evidenza è quello di Jack Amold. Il motivo di questo rilievo non sta tanto nell’ aver diretto i capolavori assoluti del decennio (La cosa è di Hawks, L’invasione degli ultracorpi è di Siegel...), quanto nell’aver realizzato un corpus di film compatto per stile e notevole nel suo insieme per quantità e qualità. Gli otto film fantastici realizzati fra il 1953 e il 1959 testimoniano cioè un autore riconoscibile, oltre a scandire tappe fondamentali per la mitologia del cinema fantastico, dalla Creatura della Laguna Nera (unico esempio degli anni ‘50 ad essere entrato nel pantheon dei mostri classici) alla gigantesca tarantola, dalla metafora esistenziale di Radiazioni B/X agli scenari desertici in cui l’uomo si trova improvvisamente di fronte ai limiti delle proprie conoscenze razionali. Uno dei motivi di compattezza del lavoro di Amold sta nella notevole autonomia con cui poté lavorare. Il suo primo film di fantascienza, Destinazione… Terra (1953), segnava infatti il primo tentativo in questa direzione (e nelle tre dimensioni) da parte della Universal-International. Il successo che ottenne, e che assieme agli incassi del Mostro della laguna nera risollevò la compagnia da una difficile situazione economica, fu tale da permettere ad Arnold di ritagliarsi una zona di relativa autonomia all’interno dello studio: “Nessuno a quell’epoca era un esperto nel fare film di fantascienza, così io pretesi di esserlo. Non lo ero, naturalmente, ma lo studio non lo sapeva, e così non si misero mai a discutere, qualsiasi cosa facessi”.

Unseen Horrors: the Unmade Films of Hammer
Unseen Horrors: The Unmade Films of Hammer Thesis submitted by Kieran Foster In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy De Montfort University, March 2019 Abstract This doctoral thesis is an industrial study of Hammer Film Productions, focusing specifically on the period of 1955-2000, and foregrounding the company’s unmade projects as primary case studies throughout. It represents a significant academic intervention by being the first sustained industry study to primarily utilise unmade projects. The study uses these projects to examine the evolving production strategies of Hammer throughout this period, and to demonstrate the methodological benefits of utilising unmade case studies in production histories. Chapter 1 introduces the study, and sets out the scope, context and structure of the work. Chapter 2 reviews the relevant literature, considering unmade films relation to studies in adaptation, screenwriting, directing and producing, as well as existing works on Hammer Films. Chapter 3 begins the chronological study of Hammer, with the company attempting to capitalise on recent successes in the mid-1950s with three ambitious projects that ultimately failed to make it into production – Milton Subotsky’s Frankenstein, the would-be television series Tales of Frankenstein and Richard Matheson’s The Night Creatures. Chapter 4 examines Hammer’s attempt to revitalise one of its most reliable franchises – Dracula, in response to declining American interest in the company. Notably, with a project entitled Kali Devil Bride of Dracula. Chapter 5 examines the unmade project Nessie, and how it demonstrates Hammer’s shift in production strategy in the late 1970s, as it moved away from a reliance on American finance and towards a more internationalised, piece-meal approach to funding.
