Úvod V rámci žánru akčního filmu rozlišuji tzv. akční film uzavřené lokace. Akčním filmem rozumím žánrový snímek, využívající akci (tj. boj skupiny postav s jinou skupinou postav za účelem dosažení určitého cíle, což zahrnuje fyzické konfrontace, přestřelky či honičky) jako jeden z dominantních prvků, díky němuž hrdina či skupina hrdinů v rámci klasické narace podle Davida Bordwella splní určitý cíl navzdory jednomu či více padouchům.1 Vyprávěcí modus uzavřené lokace je třeba určit a popsat jeho funkce a konvence. Důležité je nejprve jej vymezit v žánru akčního filmu, v němž se tento modus v určitých pravidlech objevuje a v jehož rámci bude zkoumán. Akční film, jako každý jiný žánrový film, se podle Davida Bordwella vyznačuje sdílenými žánrovými konvencemi. Ty Bordwell popisuje následovně: Jisté prvky syžetu se mohou stát konvencemi. V detektivce počítáme s vyšetřováním; syžet s motivem msty je běžný u westernů; muzikál si najde způsob, jak se dostat k situacím, v nichž se zpívá a tančí, gangsterka se obvykle věnuje zrodu a pádu gangstera a jeho souboji s policií a konkurenčním gangem. Očekáváme, že životopisný film (biopic) bude zahrnovat nejdůležitější epizody ze života hlavní postavy. Jako další žánrové konvence mohou sloužit charakteristické filmové postupy. V hororech a thrillerech bývá obvykle ponuré osvětlení. Akční filmy často spoléhají na rychlý střih a zpomalené násilné scény.2 V souladu s tímto východiskem, můžeme akční film vnímat jako snímek, v němž hrdina musí dospět ke svému cíli násilnou cestou, tedy překonat nástrahy, zahrnující padoucha a projití série životu nebezpečných situací. Analyzované filmy tyto parametry splňují – ve všech se nachází padouch, stojící svými zájmy proti hlavnímu hrdinovi, násilné scény i životu nebezpečné situace. Tato vymezení jsou výsledkem určitého diváckého i kritického očekávání. Přepadení 13. okrsku3 i Smrtonosná past jsou označeny za akční filmy právě na základě očekávání akce, konfliktů a rozdělení na kladné a záporné hrdiny. Podle Ricka Altmana se žánry mimo jiné ustavují právě na základě diváckého přijetí. To znamená, splňuje-li snímek určité žánrové konvence, vnímané divácky jako právě jemu příslušející, může být označen jako akční film, nehledě na to, kolik případných konvencí jiného žánru sdílí. Zařazení do žánru se týká i propagace4 – a tak přestože například Přepadení 13. okrsku nepřekypuje akcí po celou dobu trvání projekce, trailer5 na tento film ukazuje právě ty scény, (které bychom jako akční mohli pojmenovat (střelba, běh, násilí). Studio Turtle Releasing, zodpovědné za distribuci filmu v USA, jej díky cílení na tyto akční scény vymezilo jako akční film a vytvořilo očekávání publika stran tohoto žánru. Stejně tak trailer6 na Smrtonosnou past graduje do čím dál většího množství přestřelek, kaskadérských kousků Bruce Willise či výbuchů. Srovnatelnou taktiku užívá trailer7 na Riddicka, jenž mísí hned několik žánrů dohromady (sci-fi, horor, western). 1 Srov. Bordwell, David (1985): Narration in the Fiction Film.

Účelem cíle je určitá změna stavu, případně zabránění změny stavu a navrácení stavu do původního uspořádání. Hrdina řeší dvě linie – milostnou (vztahovou) a pracovní. Milostná (či vztahová) linie se týká hrdinova vztahu s další postavou, jenž se prohlubuje a nezřídka vede k utvoření heterosexuálního páru. Pracovní linií se rozumí cíl, ke kterému chce hrdina dojít. Hrdina má obvykle také jasně daný deadline, čili určitou pevně danou dobu, do níž musí cíl splnit. Co se však milostné linie týče, nejde o neměnnou konstantu, takže v některých filmech je utváření heterosexuálního páru rozšířena utvořením přátelství (Poslední skaut, 1990, Hard Boiled, 1992), či jím je úplně nahrazena (Zátah, 2011). Cílem v akčním filmu je zničení padouchů, záchrana milované osoby či prostě přežití. Základem cesty hrdiny k cíli je řetězec příčiny a následků, určující pohyb zápletky. Zajetí manželky Johna McClanea ve filmu Smrtonosná past zapříčiní, že McClane nevyhledá bezpečný úkryt, v němž setrvá, ale vrhne se do souboje s teroristou Hansem. Ve filmu Přepadení 13. okrsku zastřelí zoufalý otec vůdce gangu, který jej připravil o dceru, a schová se následně na policejní služebně 13. okrsku, který je přepaden. Cíl musí být splněn do uplynutí

Þessar tegundir mynda þóttu ekki merkilegar út frá kvikmyndalegu sjónarmiði og voru harðlega gagnrýndar. Slægjurnar voru álitnar þrepinu ofar en klámmyndir. Auðvelt er að afskrifa myndirnar sökum einsleitni þeirra en þegar betur er að gáð má glögglega sjá að þær eru afsprengi umhverfisins og lýsandi dæmi um þann veruleika sem ákveðin kynslóð upplifði.

Fjallað verður um þessa tegund mynda og leitast við að varpa ljósi á menningarlegt gildi þeirra. bls. 3 Abstract Slasher films are a sub category within horror films that had it‘s glory days in the late seventies and early eighties. These films were not considered very noteworthy from a cinematic viewpoint and were harshly criticized by critics. Slasher films were thought to be one nocth above pornographic films. It‘s easy to write these films off because of their simplitcity but looking beneath the cover one can clearly see that these films are culturally significant and are indicative of a reality experienced by a certain generation.

    Facultad de Ciencias Políticas, Sociales y de la Comunicación Trabajo de Fin de Grado Grado en Periodismo La evolución de la mujer en el subgénero de cine de terror “slasher”: análisis desde una perspectiva de género Alumna: Nieves Martín Ortega Tutor: Luis Fernando Iturrate Cárdenes Curso académico 2018/2019 Resumen La intención de esta investigación es realizar un análisis de los personajes femeninos presentes en el subgénero de terror conocido como “slasher”, y su evolución a lo largo de los años. Se podría decir que el subgénero slasher nace en los 70, con películas como Halloween y La matanza de Texas, que incluirían elementos que serían repetidos hasta la saciedad por futuras películas slasher. A partir de ahí, el subgénero sufre una serie de renacimientos, reinvenciones y remakes a lo largo de varias décadas, hasta llegar a la actualidad. Pero, a pesar de todos los cambios, siempre estará presente en el subgénero la figura de la ‘final girl’, o chica final. Es en esta figura en la que me centraré para analizar la evolución de los personajes femeninos a lo largo de la historia del slasher. Para ello, se han analizado x películas de las principales décadas de éxito del slasher, en las que aparece el personaje de la chica final. Las cuestiones a analizar se han seleccionado en base a conocimientos previos y desde aquellos conceptos más relevantes encontrados en la base teórica de este trabajo. 2 Índice Introducción 4 Justificación 5 Antecedentes y estado actual 7 Marco teórico 13 Objetivos e hipótesis 17 Metodología 18 Resultados y análisis 19 Conclusiones 30 Bibliografía 33 3 1.

Against the backdrop of spine-chilling stories of drowned mariners and a year-old shipwreck lying on the bottom The Fog the sea, the peaceful community of the coastal town of Antonio Bay, California is making preparations to celebrate its centennial. However--as strange supernatural occurrences blemish the festivities--an impenetrable opaque mist starts to shroud the seaside village, leading to unaccountable disappearances and the spilling of warm bright-red blood. One long century ago, a hideous crime was committed The Fog the town's elders. Now, the restless dead have returned for revenge, demanding justice. Is there something evil lurking in the fog? Written by Nick Riganas. I watched The Fog for the first time since the early 's the other night. John Carpenter and Debra Hill did a fine job with this one. The good points of the movie deal with the overall story and the setting of the film. The story is explained fully during the movie and the setting in California is superb and creepy. The music is The Fog disturbing. The background music coupled with The Fog uneasiness and lonliness of the town, Antonio Bay, is very effective. No gore whatsoever in this one so the whole family may watch this movie together.

OMAGGIO A MARIO MONICELLI – Inizio retrospettiva 04.09 – MAGNIFICHE VISIONI – Distretto 13: le brigate della morte di John Carpenter (ore 20.30/22.30) - DA VENERDI’ 31 AGOSTO A SABATO 15 SETTEMBRE – SALA TRE Il Museo Nazionale del Cinema presenta al Cinema Massimo La verità in commedia. Omaggio a Mario Monicelli. Il Museo Nazionale del Cinema rende omaggio, da venerdì 31 agosto a sabato 15 settembre 2012 , al più irriverente dei registi italiani con un’ampia retrospettiva dal titolo La verità in commedia. Omaggio a Mario Monicelli. Anticonformista e provocatorio, Mario Monicelli ha realizzato film capaci di mostrare la società italiana del novecento con realismo e umanità, miscelando mirabilmente dramma e ironia. Autore tra i più rappresentativi della commedia all’italiana, iniziò la sua carriera cinematografica come aiuto e sceneggiatore, collaborando alla realizzazione di una quarantina di titoli, tutti d'un certo interesse. Dopo la lunga e felice collaborazione con Steno – insieme al quale diresse ben otto film, tra cui il celeberrimo Guardie e ladri - dal 1953 ha iniziato a lavorare in proprio, pur senza disdegnare l'attività di sceneggiatore che lo ha portato a scrivere per molti altri cineasti. Regista – al cinema, in teatro e in tv – commediografo, occasionalmente attore (ne L'allegro marciapiede dei delitti del 1979 e in Sono fotogenico del 1980), Mario Monicelli è stato omaggiato del Leone d’oro alla carriera nel 1991. La retrospettiva – progetto del Museo Nazionale del Cinema e del Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia-Cineteca Nazionale – sarà inaugurata venerdì 31 agosto , alle ore 16.00 , nella Sala Tre del Cinema Massimo, con la proiezione del film Parenti serpenti , ritratto spietato e ironico di una famiglia piccolo borghese della provincia abruzzese.
