    Female Authorship in the Slumber Party Massacre Trilogy

    FEMALE AUTHORSHIP IN THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE TRILOGY By LYNDSEY BROYLES Bachelor of Arts in English University of New Mexico Albuquerque, NM 2016 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 2019 FEMALE AUTHORSHIP IN THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE TRILOGY Thesis Approved: Jeff Menne Thesis Adviser Graig Uhlin Lynn Lewis ii Name: LYNDSEY BROYLES Date of Degree: MAY, 2019 Title of Study: FEMALE AUTHORSHIP IN THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE TRILOGY Major Field: ENGLISH Abstract: The Slumber Party Massacre series is the only horror franchise exclusively written and directed by women. In a genre so closely associated with gender representation, especially misogynistic sexual violence against women, this franchise serves as a case study in an alternative female gaze applied to a notoriously problematic form of media. The series arose as a satire of the genre from an explicitly feminist lesbian source only to be mediated through the exploitation horror production model, which emphasized female nudity and violence. The resulting films both implicitly and explicitly address feminist themes such as lesbianism, trauma, sexuality, and abuse while adhering to misogynistic genre requirements. Each film offers a unique perspective on horror from a distinctly female viewpoint, alternately upholding and subverting the complex gender politics of women in horror films. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page I.

    Guide to The

    GUIDE TO THE If you are looking for a place to live during your time in the D, you have a rich variety of neighborhoods to choose from, each with their own personalities, history, and amenities. Please refer to the below guide, written by our residents, to help you choose the best place to enjoy the city and people! Created by James Jermls VandenBerg MD & The Residents of DRH Neighborhoods Downtown If you want to fully experience the D, then this is the place for you. The city is experiencing a unique renaissance as historic buildings have been renovated, new restaurants and bars continue to flourish, and large scale murals decorate the faces of our skyscrapers. If you enjoy the hustle and bustle of city life and want to celebrate the most resilient city in the country, then you should find yourself here. o Pros: Not only are you in the heart of all the action, more importantly you can get to work in about 5-10 minutes. There’s a wealth of new and historic bars and restaurants in every direction. This includes Campus Martius Park, which is in the center of downtown and converted into a beach bar in the summer and an ice- skating rink in the winter! You are in the center of all the major attractions in the area, including proximity to all professional Detroit sports, landmark buildings/sculptures to explore, and it’s very dog friendly with numerous dog parks. It borders the Detroit River with multiple running trails including the Dequindre Cut. If you like to gamble there are multiple casinos, and if you like feta and moussaka we have Greektown; o Cons: Generally more expensive than other neighborhoods, and almost exclusively apartment-high-rise living (the city is your backyard now).

    High Court of New Zealand 25 October 2017 MEDIA RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE PUBLICATION EIGHT MILE STYLE V NATIONAL PARTY [2017] NZHC 2603 This summary is provided to assist in the understanding of the Court’s judgment. It does not comprise part of the reasons for that judgment. The full judgment with reasons is the only authoritative document. The full text of the judgment and reasons can be found at www.courtsofnz.govt.nz What the case is about The key issue for determination by the Court was whether a “sound-alike” production track, called Eminem Esque, used by the National Party in its 2014 election campaign advertising, is sufficiently similar to the 2002 music of Eminem’s hit song, Lose Yourself, so as to constitute a breach of copyright. Lose Yourself was composed by Marshall Mathers III (Eminem), Jeffrey Bass and Luis Resto (all called Eight Mile Style) in 2002. The composition is regarded by Eight Mile Style as the most valuable work in their catalogue and has only rarely been licensed for use, and never as part of a political campaign. Eight Mile Style,1 who own the copyright in Lose Yourself, sought damages against the National Party after Eminem Esque featured in Party advertisements played on television, the internet and at a Party conference in the lead up to the 2014 election. Between 20 to 30 1 Eight Mile Style are the owners of 50 percent and exclusive licensees of the other 50 per cent of the musical work Lose Yourself. August 2014, the advertisements, with Eminem Esque synchronised to them, were played 186 times on New Zealand television.
  • Screams on Screens: Paradigms of Horror

    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.
