"Best New Werewolf Tales offers a howling metamorphosis of a good time. The volume boasts an inhuman amount of most talented, innovative authors capable of altering mish-mash lychan tales to throw even the most cynical of avid readers into a frenzy." "Although this book quite clearly has some big-hitting authors attached to it, its real strength lies in the unique nature of each story. The majority of the stories here are exceptional takes on the classic werewolf archetype and run the gamut of all that you could expect from the sub-genre and then some; including directions you may never have considered!" These 40 Best Werewolf Books Are a Howling Good Time. Sure, Halloween parties and eating ghost-shaped foods are fun. But if you ask us, the ideal Halloween night is spent curled up with a spooky book, surrounded by on-point decor. When you tire of vampires novels, consider the werewolf. As this list of the best werewolf books shows, these lonely (or lucky) creatures trapped between worlds make for fascinating protagonists. Werewolves have been found throughout folklore, dating back to Greek mythology and the Epic of Gilgamesh . In 1860's The Book of Werewolves, one the oldest tomes on the subject, Sabine Baring-Gould traces the supernatural being's appearances across cultures. Today, the once-bloodthirsty monsters are more commonly seen as alluring leading men (see: Alcide in HBO's True Blood and of course, Twilight's Jacob ) . The (mostly adult) books below explore the concept of werewolves through a variety of different genres, from macabre and horrifying fairy tales to steamy paranormal romance series. As Stephanie Meyer's famous Twilight series proves, there are werewolf books for teenagers and tweens, too. Each one presents a different werewolf mythology as well. Are they creatures that roam from town to town, destined to murder (like The Wolfman )? Or are they the last of a dying breed ( The Last Werewolf )? Below, find 40 different takes, no matter your preference. The 15 Best Werewolf Horror Movies. These werewolf movies are guaranteed to make you howl with delight or your money back. No, not really, but they will give you a fright night that will make you glad to look around and see you are actually in your own cozy and safe living room. These are listed in descending order of horror. 'Red Riding Hood' (2011) This stylish werewolf mystery from the director of ​"Twilight" and writer of ​"Orphan" makes up in entertainment value what it lacks in originality. 'Wolf' (1994) A mild-mannered book publisher (Jack Nicholson) who's down on his luck finds his life changed—for better and worse—when he's bitten by a werewolf. Stellar performances by Nicholson, Michelle Pfeiffer and James Spader and engrossing character interaction propel the relatively run- of-the-mill werewolf portion—although it does differ from most of its ilk in that the werewolf turns nightly until the full moon, at which point he turns completely and permanently into a wolf. 'Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning' (2004) The third and final entry in the ​"Ginger Snaps" franchise steps out of the established storyline by transporting sisters Brigitte and Ginger back in time to 1815, where they take refuge in a frontier fort that's being besieged by werewolves. The re-teaming of the sisters is a refreshing change of pace from "Ginger Snaps 2," in which Ginger had only a small role. 'The Company of Wolves' (1984) This surreal, werewolf-centric British fairy tale from Neil Jordan ("Interview With the Vampire") features stories within stories, including a twisted take on Little Red Riding Hood. The Dreamy direction is buoyed by a strong cast, including Stephen Rea, Angela Landsbury, and Terence Stamp, while gruesome transformation scenes provide an edge to the softly lit tales. 'Blood Moon' (2001) 20th Century Fox. Also known as "Wolf Girl," this odd but endearing TV movie, complete with musical numbers and more than its share of full-frontal male nudity, follows a traveling freak show "wolf girl" who begins taking an experimental medicine to rid her of her head-to-toe hair, but it has the unexpected side effect of making her increasingly animalistic. 'Wer' (2014) Inexplicably shot in a found-footage style even though it's not found footage, this slick, fast-paced tale does a wonderful job of reinventing the werewolf mythos by presenting a "realistic" werewolf condition—no elaborate transformations, and it's debatable for much of the movie whether or not the antagonist is even a werewolf. However, the film still manages to be one of the most crafty, havoc-wreaking werewolves in cinematic history, laying waste to heavily armed police, outrunning cars and leaping with superhero ability. 'Underworld' (2003) A stylish and inventive mix of action and horror, "Underworld" is, unexpectedly, a Romeo and Juliet tale set amid a war between werewolves and vampires, featuring great special effects without relying too much on computer-generated imagery and one of the most intimidating werewolf designs of all time. 'The Wolf Man' (1941) Movie Poster Image Art/Moviepix / Getty Images. This iconic film set the standard for werewolf movies, introducing the concepts that werewolves are vulnerable to silver and are marked with a pentagram. The story of an American visiting his ancestral home in Wales helped star Lon Chaney Jr. escape from the shadow of his father, who'd famously portrayed the Phantom of the Opera and the Hunchback of Notre Dame. 'The Werewolf of London' (1935) Although it came from Universal, this first major Hollywood werewolf production is overshadowed by the studio's monster movie stable of "​ Dracula," "Frankenstein," "The Mummy" and even the later "Wolf Man." However, it's arguably superior to the more well-known Lon Chaney Jr. film—an excellent blend of horror, drama and even a bit of comedy, with smart, crisp dialogue, strong performances and an engaging mystery about a British scientist who's bitten by a werewolf in Tibet while researching a plant rumored to be an antidote to lycanthropy. Best New Werewolf Tales – Book Review. Best New Werewolf Tales Volume 1 Edited By: Carolina Smart Short Fiction By: Robert Elrod, Jonathan Maberry, James Roy Daley, John Everson, James Newman, David Bernstein, Simon McCaffery, John F.D. Taff, Rob Rosen, Michael Laimo, William Meikle, Douglas Smith, Rob E. Boley, T.J. May, David Niall Wilson, John Grover, Nina Kiriki Hoffman, Randall Lahrman, Stephen M. Wilson, Anna Taborska, David Wesley Hill Books of The Dead Press Review By: Rick Amortis. An eerie, chilling, hair rising experience is this pack of original genre based tales from Books of the Dead Press. It seems everywhere we turn our heads today in contemporary horror based entertainment it’s always either zombies, vampires or werewolves. Leave it to a controversial, obscure market to bludgeon its audience to the point of submission, force feeding the public with one rendition after another of the same genre, different rendition. If it sells, why not beat the bloody hell out of it, seems to be the horror moniker. Make no mistake about it Best New Werewolf Tales offers a howling metamorphosis of a good time. There are twists, turns, surprises and unexpected delights that will keep you fixated on your elongated nail biting marathons. The volume boasts an inhuman amount of most talented, innovative authors capable of altering mish-mash lychan tales to throw even the most cynical of avid readers into a frenzy. Our volume commences with Maberry’s “Like Part Of The Family.” When Mrs. Skye commissions the services of private detective Mr. Hunter to investigate the motives of her stalking ex-husband, he quickly learns there is far more to Mr. Skye than what meets the eye. Descriptive, imaginative and a true sense of steadily rising tension, Jonathan Maberry preys upon his reader’s collective subconscious and knows precisely when to hit all the right buttons. Just when we’re engaged unto the lead protagonist, feeling a certain sense of dread and pity for Mrs. Skye we learn of the true evil behind her marriage to David. A genuine eye opener, “Like Part Of The Family” will have you tearing through the pages in a ferocious, insatiable appetite for more. “Anniversary” is dark, demented and taken from a unique perspective. Margaret demonstrates she’ll do whatever it takes to satisfy the beastly appetites of her mate Charles. Written by John Everson, a recipient of the Bram Stoker Award, this author has an undeniable gift for teasing the reader’s with what lurks in the shadows, beneath the surface and within the inner recesses of our darkest, most delirious thoughts. Chock full of innuendo’s, indiscretions and the idiosyncrasies that rule man kind’s hearts Anniversary will render you paralyzed with fear and restless with insomnia. “The Trojan Plush” is a disturbing account of dog eat dog in a morally inept society. Brad Raling seeks the expertise of a clairvoyant medium or gypsy if you’d rather to settle the score of murderous Martin Bigg narrowly escaping the clutches of certain incarceration. Walking free on a technicality Mr. Bigg soon learns his freedom has come at an unholy cost. Thought provoking, gripping and suspenseful, David Bernstein captures a sense of dread and doom with epic proportion.

The Beast Inside _______________ A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF FINE ARTS UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN MAINE STONECOAST MFA IN CREATIVE WRITING BY Steve Cave _______________ 2016 i Abstract This thesis contains the first seven chapters of the novel Ravenous, the short story “Faithfall,” and the academic paper “From Hellhound to Hero: Tracking the Shifting Shape of the 21st Century Werewolf.” Both of the stories deal with werewolves as a common element, but use very different types of werewolves in each. The werewolves of Ravenous transform through losing control or giving in to their passions, while the werewolves in “Faithfall” change only with the full moon, and retain no control once transformed. Both stories have a gay male protagonist, though also in very different ways. Ravenous follows the story of a seventeen-year-old young man learning that he is a werewolf, and uses this to explore themes such as coming of age, hungering for belonging, and dealing with feeling like a monster.

  • Creating Images for Hollywood Classics Vicki James Yiannias
    Creating Images for Hollywood Classics Vicki James Yiannias From the time of silent films, the images of American cinema have reflected the environment of their time. The sounds, sites, costumes, makeup, and movements on the screen reinforce the norms of the era, but also give a taste of social changes in their early phases. Most popular attention has been focused on actors, who when influential are labeled stars, even if their talent is limited. More recently some directors also have become “bankable” as stars of their own kind. Still under-appreciated by most filmgoers are the critical behind-the scenes roles by others in the filmmaking team. Greeks who have carved some legendary spaces in their respective specialties are not widely celebrated, even by the Greek American public. Six such individuals are Jack Pierce, make-up and special effects artist; Hermes Pan, choreographer; Dean Tavoularis, production designer; and Theoni Aldredge, Patricia Field, and Mary Zophres, three extraordinary costumer designers. From Frankenstein to Mister Ed Special effects and makeup genius Jack Pierce (1889-1968) is one of the great innovators in Hollywood history. His masterly conceived monsters and creatures created for Hollywood horror classics such as Frankenstein (1931), Dracula 1931), The Mummy (1932), and Wolf Man (1941) are still terrifying, and their influence on popular culture, continues on a grand scale. Yiannis Peter Piccoulas (1889-1968) was born in Porto Cheli, Ermionida, in the Peloponnese. His father was a shepherd (likely to have been originally from the village of Valtestsi).1 In 1902, when he was just thirteen, Piccoulas left his family to come to America in search of a better life.

  • Ath001 Chronology of Limerick Athenaeum 2.Pdf
    Introduction The Limerick Athenaeum is comprised of two separate buildings at Upper Cecil Street Limerick. The original building, which now houses the Limerick Vocational Educational Committee [LVEC], was built as the offices of the Commissioners of St. Michael’s Parish in 1833. It was, in effect, the Town Hall of Georgian Limerick. The second building, the Athenaeum Hall was built by the Limerick Athenaeum as a Lecture Theatre in 1855. 1833 MINUTES OF St MICHAEL'S PARISH COMMISSIONERS [Source: From original manuscripts at the Limerick Archives] April 19th 1833: At a meeting of the above, with William White in the Chair, it was resolved that the proposal of John Stokes end Michael Guerin to build the new Parish Offices be accepted, for the sum of'£ 1,070 sterling. The contractors have to expend £300 before they get any money from the Board. Nicholas Hannon is appointed superintendent. Report in the Limerick Chronicle of the 20th April 1833: "The Commissioners of St Michael's Parish, yesterday, agreed with Mr Stokes, architect, for the sum of £1,070 to erect premises for a Watch-House, Board-Room etc in Cecil Street, to be accomplished on the 1st January next".

  • Television in the Cinema Before 1939: an International Annotated Database, with an Introduction by Richard Koszarski
    Journal of e-Media Studies Volume 5, Issue 1, 2016 Dartmouth College Television in the Cinema Before 1939: An International Annotated Database, with an Introduction by Richard Koszarski Richard Koszarski and Doron Galili Visions of the Future An Introduction by Richard Koszarski Albert Abramson traced the first appearance of the word television to a paper presented in Paris by the Russian electrical engineer Constantin Perskyi on August 25, 1900. Perskyi discussed his own work as well as the contributions of his predecessors, such as Paul Nipkow, and suggested television as a replacement for words like telectroscope, one of many terms already in common use whenever the phenomenon of distant electric vision was under discussion. The International Electricity Congress, which heard the paper, was meeting in Paris that summer because this is where the great Exposition Universelle of 1900 was being held. For film historians, the exposition is renowned for its fabulous array of new projection technologies, involving everything from widescreen and color to talking pictures and Cineorama. Perskyi's linguistic contribution, on the other hand, is remembered only by specialists. One wonders if the proponents of the téléoscope and the téléphote, as they roamed the exposition, gave any thought to these new marvels of the cinema, and asked themselves why their medium still lagged so far behind in every conceivable measure. Seeing at a distance was a notion that had captivated engineers and entrepreneurs since word of Alexander Graham Bell's telephone first began to spread in the late 1870s, yet here it was 1900, and still only in the talking stage? People around the world had been waiting for television for decades, but the engineers had given them the cinema instead, a rival moving-image medium that appeared to have leapt from dream to multinational industry almost overnight.
