  • The Birth of Haptic Cinema
    The Birth of Haptic Cinema An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by Panhavuth Lau Jordan Stoessel Date: May 21, 2020 Advisor: Brian Moriarty IMGD Professor of Practice Abstract This project examines the history of The Tingler (1959), the first motion picture to incorporate haptic (tactile) sensations. It surveys the career of its director, William Castle, a legendary Hollywood huckster famous for his use of gimmicks to attract audiences to his low- budget horror films. Our particular focus is Percepto!, the simple but effective gimmick created for The Tingler to deliver physical “shocks” to viewers. The operation, deployment and promotion of Percepto! are explored in detail, based on recently-discovered documents provided to exhibitors by Columbia Pictures, the film’s distributor. We conclude with a proposal for a method of recreating Percepto! for contemporary audiences using Web technologies and smartphones. i Contents Abstract .......................................................................................................................................... i Contents ........................................................................................................................................ ii 1.

  • Films Fantastic 5
    FILMS FANTASTIC 5 The Original CAPTAIN MARVEL Films Fantastic 5, published by Eric Jamborsky for the NFFF Film Bureau. [email protected] Captain Marvel was originally a character in Fawcett Comics, their entry into the super hero comic market. In the origin story newsboy Billy Batson encounters the wizard Shazam who tells Billy that by speaking the wizard’s name he will become Captain Marvel. In the form of Captain Marvel he will have the wisdom of Soloman, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Atlas, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles, and the speed of Mercury (thereby hopeless scrambling Greek/Roman mythology). The character quickly caught on, due in part to the often tongue-in-cheek approach. In 1940 Republic Pictures was interested in bringing a super hero to the screen and approached DC Comics about licensing Superman, but DC had already made a deal with Max Fleischer to produce a series of animated cartoons. Republic then approached Fawcett and got the rights to make a serial of the ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN MARVEL. Now Republic made the best serials at the time, but was not necessarily known for its fidelity to the source material. Billy Batson was no longer selling newspapers, but was broadcasting on radio. Captain Marvel became a bit more gritty, casually tossing bad guys from the roofs of tall buildings and not bothering to catch them. But the Saturday morning audiences ate it up and the ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN MARVEL became one of the most popular serials of all time, right on the heels of Universal’s FLASH GORDON.

  • 13/03/08 Stanlio & Ollio Teste Dure, 70 Anni
    13/03/08 STANLIO & OLLIO TESTE DURE, 70 ANNI DOPO! 1938-2008 Questa volta, eccovi un evento indicatoci da Alessandro Santi, fan sfegatato di Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy: nella sua città organizza, insieme a un buon numero di appassionati, la serata di esilaranza cinematografica STANLIO & OLLIO TESTE DURE 70 ANNI DOPO! 1938- 2008. Il tutto si svolge sabato 15 marzo (prossimo venturo) alle ore 16, presso il Cinema Borsi d’Essai, via San Fabiano, 49, 59100 Prato. La proiezione riguarda BLOCK-HEADS (Stanlio e Ollio Teste Dure – 20 anni dopo, 1938), uno dei più divertenti lungometraggi di Stanlio & Ollio nel settantesimo anniversario della sua uscita. Al film è abbinato, in prima visione cinematografica italiana, il rarissimo cortometraggio della serie Our Gang (Simpatiche Canaglie) dal titolo WILD POSES (Attenti al click!, 1933), che vede la partecipazione di Laurel & Hardy. I film sono restaurati, in pellicola, in versione integrale e in italiano grazie ancora una volta all’amorevole cura e competenza del "Vice Sceicco" Alberto Vangelisti. Con il patrocinio della Provincia di Prato e del Comune di Prato - Circoscrizione Centro. Non mancheranno le SORPRESE dentro e fuori lo schermo!!! L’entrata è a offerta libera (dicono gli organizzatori: "speriamo di replicare il plateale successo dello scorso anno")! I disegni di questo post appartengono alla longeva licenza ottenuta da Larry Harmon per produrre fumetti con Stanlio e Ollio. Non si trattava certo di capolavori da tramandare nei secoli: i disegni sono quello che sono, le gag mediamente scontate, come si nota anche da quella, riprodotta qua sopra, del gelato e dell'ottovolante, sfruttata più volte dagli editor della Dell anche con Bugs Bunny e Elmer Fudd, o con Picchiarello e Oswald the Rabbit.

    NEWS RELEASE 26 th Annual Music Box Steps Day This Year Celebrated Online! Saturday, October 24, 2 - 4 pm LOS ANGELES – You can’t keep a classic comedy team, or its legion of fans, down! The pandemic may have prevented an outdoor celebration of the 26th annual Music Box Steps Day family festival, but not an online version, which with just as much enthusiasm will honor Laurel & Hardy and the famed 133 stairs on Vendome Street in Silver Lake where Stan & Ollie filmed their 1932 Oscar- winning short, The Music Box . On Saturday, October 24, 2020, from 2 - 4 pm, a virtual Music Box Steps Day will be broadcast worldwide on SLIA’s web site (silverlakeimprovementassociation.org) and its Facebook page (facebook.com/musicboxstepsday). If you miss the inaugural, the video will still be online for the viewing time of your choice -- and either way, it’s free! The presentation was produced by the Silver Lake Improvement Association (SLIA) and actor/entertainer Edward E. Bell, and will feature a special screening of the recently restored version of the ever-hilarious, 29-minute-long The Music Box , in which the bungling duo valiantly attempt to deliver a player piano to a home atop a steep hill. Other attractions include a reprise of last year’s on-site filmed recreation of the legendary comedy. Emmy-winning actor and film historian Stan Taffel will provide background information about The Music Box and the endless staircase where several other early comedies (and more recent films) also were shot. Los Angeles City Councilmember Mitch O’Farrell, staircase historian Charles Fleming, and other prominent figures will be zoomed in.
