I would also like to thank Professor Filson for his help and support during the development and execution of this thesis. Abstract This thesis will discuss the emerging influence of film review aggregators and their effect on the changing landscape for reviews in the film industry. Specifically, this study will look at the top 150 domestic grossing films of 2010 to empirically study the effects of two specific review aggregators. A time-delayed approach to regression analysis is used to measure the influencing effects of these aggregators in the long run. Subsequently, other factors crucial to predicting film success are also analyzed in the context of sustained earnings.

  • Why Found Footage Horror Films Matter : Introduction
    Why Found Footage Horror Films Matter : Introduction Peter Turner, Oxford Brookes University The cinematic image of a young woman staring into the camera – crying, hyperventilating, and talking directly to her audience – has become the definitive image of The Blair Witch Project (Myrick and Sanchez, 1999). It is arguably the most famous scene, and certainly the most parodied image of found footage horror cinema in general, perhaps even one of the defining images of cinema in the 1990s. This character, Heather Donahue, is played by a hitherto unknown actress called Heather Donahue, in her feature debut. From what we see on screen, and the manner in which her monologue is delivered, it can be inferred that she is not reciting scripted lines. She does not seem to be acting; her fear appears genuine. Heather is alone in a dark tent, shooting this footage herself with a handheld camera. The shot did not look like most other horror films that had been previously shown in cinemas; it is poorly framed, poorly lit, and the character knows and acknowledges that she is on camera. There had been previous films in this style: Cannibal Holocaust (Deodato, 1980) contains the use of ‘found footage’ within its narrative structure, and Man Bites Dog (Belvaux, Bonzel and Poelvoorde, 1992) is a mock-documentary that purports to be completely filmed by a diegetic film crew. However, neither of these films had the cultural impact or box office success of The Blair Witch Project, a film that eventually spawned numerous imitators, and arguably the entire found footage horror sub- genre that now consists of hundreds of films.1 There is a straightforward economic reason why filmmakers continue to produce found footage horror films.

  • Production Notes
    PRODUCTION NOTES Directed by Daniel Stamm Produced by Eli Roth Starring Patrick Fabian Ashley Bell Louis Herthum Caleb Jones Release date: November 25, 2010 Running time: 90 minutes Rated: MA 15+ Strong horror themes and violence For more information contact Jillian Heggie at Hopscotch Films on: 02) 8303 3800 or email: [email protected] SYNOPSIS In the terrifying new documentary-style film, THE LAST EXORCISM, Reverend Cotton Marcus is a man whose lack of faith is challenged head-on during his documentary film of his last act of ministry, the exorcism of an innocent young girl whose anguished father is convinced that she's demonically possessed. Reverend Cotton Marcus is a fourth generation evangelical minister, and after 25 years, a man who thought he'd seen it all in his chosen vocation. Cotton is a well-known practitioner of exorcism, with many faithful believers in his work. Only he's not one of them. People believe what they need to believe, and Cotton has helped many lost souls work out their "demons," but it's time to put away the smoke and mirrors, pull the curtain back, and for people to know the truth. Now in the twilight of his career, and with a few more bucks to earn for one last job, Cotton allows a film crew to finally reveal the tricks of his trade. Feverish requests for Cotton's help come regularly. And soon after filming begins, Cotton receives a letter laced with urgency and desperation. His last case takes him into the rural Louisiana, to the Ivanwood home of Louis Sweetzer.

  • The Contemporary American Horror Film Remake, 2003-2013
    RE-ANIMATED: THE CONTEMPORARY AMERICAN HORROR FILM REMAKE, 2003-2013 Thesis submitted by Laura Mee In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy De Montfort University, March 2014 Abstract This doctoral thesis is a study of American horror remakes produced in the years 2003-2013, and it represents a significant academic intervention into an understanding of the horror remaking trend. It addresses the remaking process as one of adaptation, examines the remakes as texts in their own right, and situates them within key cultural, industry and reception contexts. It also shows how remakes have contributed to the horror genre’s evolution over the last decade, despite their frequent denigration by critics and scholars. Chapter One introduces the topic, and sets out the context, scope and approach of the work. Chapter Two reviews the key literature which informs this study, considering studies in adaptation, remaking, horror remakes specifically, and the genre more broadly. Chapter Three explores broad theoretical questions surrounding the remake’s position in a wider culture of cinematic recycling and repetition, and issues of fidelity and taxonomy. Chapter Four examines the ‘reboots’ of one key production company, exploring how changes are made across versions even as promotion relies on nostalgic connections with the originals. Chapter Five discusses a diverse range of slasher film remakes to show how they represent variety and contribute to genre development. Chapter Six considers socio-political themes in 1970s horror films and their contemporary post-9/11 remakes, and Chapter Seven focuses on gender representation and recent genre trends in the rape-revenge remake.
