  • Scary Movie 5 (2013) Una Parodia a Tutto Campo Che Si Avvale Dell'efficace Ritmo Della Versione Italiana
    Scary Movie 5 (2013) Una parodia a tutto campo che si avvale dell'efficace ritmo della versione italiana. Un film di Malcolm D. Lee con Lindsay Lohan, Charlie Sheen, Terry Crews, Kate Walsh, Ashley Tisdale, Jerry O'Connell, Molly Shannon, Heather Locklear, Chris Elliott, Simon Rex. Genere Commedia durata 85 minuti. Produzione USA 2013. Uscita nelle sale: giovedì 18 aprile 2013 Tra rivisitazioni geniali e battute a doppio senso, nel quinto episodio della saga demenziale horror più amata i protagonisti del cinema sono nuovamente sostituiti dalla loro folle controfigura. Giancarlo Zappoli - www.mymovies.it Dopo che Charlie Sheen (che interpreta se stesso) è stato ucciso da un fantasma nella sua camera da letto in cui si stava dando da fare con Lindsay Lohan (anche lei nei propri succinti panni) i suoi tre figli vengono rapiti e ritrovati dopo qualche tempo in un'abitazione nel bosco. Sono affidati allo zio Dan e a sua moglie Jody ma ben presto appare chiaro che con loro è entrato nella casa anche uno spirito malvagio. Così sia il lavoro di Dan (che sta testando droghe sugli scimpanzé per sviluppare la loro intelligenza) che le aspirazioni di Jody di diventare l'etoile nel balletto in cui danza subiscono forti interferenze. Parodia. Il Dizionario della Lingua Italiana Sabatini Colletti a questa voce precisa: "Versione comica, caricaturale di un'opera letteraria, di una canzone, di un film". Dal lontano 2000 quando i Wayans, Jason Friedberg, Aaron Seltzer si divertirono a divertire il pubblico con sberleffi mirati ai film horror di successo dell'epoca, con cadenza regolare la parodia dei blockbuster non solo orrorifici ha i suoi appassionati fan.

When they discover a Book of the Dead, they unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival. 42 Cast: Harrison Ford, Jon Bernthal, Christopher Meloni, Nicole Beharie, Jud Tylor Rated: PG-13 Story type: Drama Run time: 128 min Synopsis: Academy Award winner Brian Helgeland ("L.A. Confidential") wrote and directed the drama "42," starring Chadwick Boseman ("The Express") and OscarR nominee Harrison Ford ("Witness").Hero is a word we hear often in sports, but heroism is not always about achievements on the field of play. "42" tells the story of two men-the great Jackie Robinson and legendary Brooklyn Dodgers GM Branch Rickey-whose brave stand against prejudice forever changed the world by changing the game of baseball. In 1946, Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford) put himself at the forefront of history when he signed Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) to the team, breaking Major League Baseball's infamous color line.

  • Negotiating the Non-Narrative, Aesthetic and Erotic in New Extreme Gore
    NEGOTIATING THE NON-NARRATIVE, AESTHETIC AND EROTIC IN NEW EXTREME GORE. A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication, Culture, and Technology By Colva Weissenstein, B.A. Washington, DC April 18, 2011 Copyright 2011 by Colva Weissenstein All Rights Reserved ii NEGOTIATING THE NON-NARRATIVE, AESTHETIC AND EROTIC IN NEW EXTREME GORE. Colva O. Weissenstein, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Garrison LeMasters, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This thesis is about the economic and aesthetic elements of New Extreme Gore films produced in the 2000s. The thesis seeks to evaluate film in terms of its aesthetic project rather than a traditional reading of horror as a cathartic genre. The aesthetic project of these films manifests in terms of an erotic and visually constructed affective experience. It examines the films from a thick descriptive and scene analysis methodology in order to express the aesthetic over narrative elements of the films. The thesis is organized in terms of the economic location of the New Extreme Gore films in terms of the film industry at large. It then negotiates a move to define and analyze the aesthetic and stylistic elements of the images of bodily destruction and gore present in these productions. Finally, to consider the erotic manifestations of New Extreme Gore it explores the relationship between the real and the artificial in horror and hardcore pornography. New Extreme Gore operates in terms of a kind of aesthetic, gore-driven pornography. Further, the films in question are inherently tied to their economic circumstances as a result of the significant visual effects technology and the unstable financial success of hyper- violent films.

  • Tyler Perry – the Trailblazer Award Waco Theater Center, 2019
    TYLER PERRY – THE TRAILBLAZER AWARD WACO THEATER CENTER, 2019 On Saturday, June 1, 2019, actor, playwright and filmmaker Tyler Perry will receive The Trailblazer Award at WACO Theater Center’s Wearable Art Gala in Los Angeles. Perry’s inspirational journey from the hard streets of New Orleans to the heights of Hollywood's A-list is the stuff of American legend. Born into poverty and raised in a household scarred by abuse, Perry fought from a young age to find the strength, faith and perseverance that would later form the foundations of his much-acclaimed plays, films, books and shows. It was a simple piece of advice from Oprah Winfrey that set Perry's career in motion. Encouraged to keep a diary of his daily thoughts and experiences, he began writing a series of soul-searching letters to himself. The letters, full of pain and in time, forgiveness, became a healing catharsis. His writing inspired a musical, I Know I've Been Changed, and in 1992, Perry gathered his life's savings in hopes of staging it for sold out crowds. He spent all the money but the people never came, and Perry once again came face to face with the poverty that had plagued his youth. He spent months sleeping in seedy motels and his car but his faith - in God and, in turn, himself - only got stronger. He forged a powerful relationship with the church, and kept writing. In 1998 his perseverance paid off and a promoter booked I Know I've Been Changed for a limited run at a local church-turned-theatre.

  • The Birthday Party at A.C.T. Encore Arts San Francisco
    SAN FRANCISCO’S PREMIER NONPROFIT THEATER COMPANY THE BIRTHDAY PARTY JAN 2018 SEASON 51, ISSUE 4 BY QUI NGUYEN DIRECTED BY JAIME CASTAÑEDA Vietgone is not your typical how-Mom- met-Dad story. Not unless they hit it off at a refugee camp in Arkansas. But that’s the story of playwright Qui Nguyen’s parents, who fell in love against all odds. Fleeing war-torn Vietnam, Tong and Quang navigate the unfamiliar landscape of 1970s America. As they learn more about the culture of this new land, they ponder what “home” really means. Is home a place, a person, a feeling?

  • Jigsaw: Torture Porn Rebooted? Steve Jones After a Seven-Year Hiatus
    Originally published in: Bacon, S. (ed.) Horror: A Companion. Oxford: Peter Lang, 2019. This version © Steve Jones 2018 Jigsaw: Torture Porn Rebooted? Steve Jones After a seven-year hiatus, ‘just when you thought it was safe to go back to the cinema for Halloween’ (Croot 2017), the Saw franchise returned. Critics overwhelming disapproved of franchise’s reinvigoration, and much of that dissention centred around a label that is synonymous with Saw: ‘torture porn’. Numerous critics pegged the original Saw (2004) as torture porn’s prototype (see Lidz 2009, Canberra Times 2008). Accordingly, critics such as Lee (2017) characterised Jigsaw’s release as heralding an unwelcome ‘torture porn comeback’. This chapter will investigate the legitimacy of this concern in order to determine what ‘torture porn’ is and means in the Jigsaw era. ‘Torture porn’ originates in press discourse. The term was coined by David Edelstein (2006), but its implied meanings were entrenched by its proliferation within journalistic film criticism (for a detailed discussion of the label’s development and its implied meanings, see Jones 2013). On examining the films brought together within the press discourse, it becomes apparent that ‘torture porn’ is applied to narratives made after 2003 that centralise abduction, imprisonment, and torture. These films focus on protagonists’ fear and/or pain, encoding the latter in a manner that seeks to ‘inspire trepidation, tension, or revulsion for the audience’ (Jones 2013, 8). The press discourse was not principally designed to delineate a subgenre however. Rather, it allowed critics to disparage popular horror movies. Torture porn films – according to their detractors – are comprised of violence without sufficient narrative or character development (see McCartney 2007, Slotek 2009).
