The main purposes of this research are (1) to find out the kinds of gestures found in “A Quiet Place” film (2) to analyze the function of gesture found in “A Quiet Place” Film. The method of this research is descriptive qualitative research. For collecting the data, the researcher should watch “A Quiet Place” Film. After watching film, the researcher should find out the kinds of gesture in another journal or books then analyzing the kinds of gesture that found in “A Quiet Place” film. The researcher found the kinds of gesture that written by David McNeill and Levy 2005. There are four dimensions of the previous researcher about the kinds of gesture: Iconic, Metaphoric, Deictic, and Beats. That are the kinds of gesture that the researcher will analyze based on the film. The four kinds of gesture is importance for balancing the speakers meaning when they talk, and when the speakers did not allow to speech or using their sounds. Study about gesture is important, as a student of English education the researcher took this subject because it related to cultural understanding and linguistics. The researcher chose “A Quiet Place” film that relating to this research. “A Quiet Place” is an American post-apocalyptic horror film directed by John Krasinski in 2018, who wrote the screenplay with Bryan Woods and Scott Beck. The film stars Krasinski, alongside Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, and Noah Jupe. The plot revolves around a family struggling to survive in a post-apocalyptic world inhabited by blind extraterrestrial creatures with an acute sense of hearing. A Quiet Place premiered at South by Southwest on March 9, 2018, and was released in the United States on April 6, 2018, by Paramount Pictures.

Except for the mailbox, you might drive past without noticing its presence. The solitude of its location serves Eric Moon and Jan McKie well. Eric is a professional voiceover talent, and Jan is a former graphic artist turned entrepreneur. They both work from home, and the concept of The Quiet Place is their brainchild. The Quiet Place opened in April 2000 as one secluded getaway cabin conveniently located near Cumming Nature Center, Bristol Mountain, Grimes Glen and several wonderful restaurants and wine trails. Today, there are eight cabins and cottages scattered throughout the Finger Lakes, each one designated as The Quiet Place. The cabins range in size from one to four bedrooms, with the largest accommodating up to eight people.

  • Disability in Popular Horror
    Volume 15 REVIEW OF DISABILITY STUDIES: AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL Issue 1 Editorial “Disability in Popular Horror: A New Trend?” Raphael Raphael, PhD RDS Associate Editor of Creative Works and Multimedia University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, Center on Disability Studies Since its inception, film has always been fascinated with disability, although we don’t usually like to mention it. (I have written elsewhere how imagining the disabled body and the experience of having a disability has helped shape the medium of film, in ways largely overlooked or disavowed.) As a genre, horror (which might be the most popular kind of film at the moment) has always been especially interested in disability; the threat of becoming disabled or the threat of being attacked by a character with a visible disability or disfigurement have long been dependable narrative devices. Even when a disabled character is presented as sympathetic, the very experience of having a disability is traditionally imagined as itself a source of terror. For example, in Wait until Dark (1967), we are invited to vicariously experience being a young, sightless Audrey Hepburn faced with threats made horrific precisely by her inability to see. Recently, in just the past year, a very different trend might be emerging in horror films. Although this trend unsettles many years of cultural scripts about disability, it appears to be largely overlooked in the dominant, charged debates about recent horror films. This new trend---if it’s safe to call it that based on the two most popular recent horror films (A Quiet Place and Bird Box)---appears to imagine disability in an entirely new way.

  • Family Values in the Movie “A Quiet Place”: a Semiotic Approach

One of many horror films released in 2018 that left deep impression for audiences is ―A Quiet Place‖. McClintock (2018) claimed that the movie has earned more than $300M globally, making strides toward becoming one of the biggest-grossing original scary movies ever. ―A Quiet Place‖ is a silence movie directed by John Krasinski. Because of its silence and quietness, the audiences were forced to focus on the nonverbal signs in the movie. The theme of this movie was family values. One of many important films is mise –en-scene as this communicates indirectly to the audiences. The aim of this study was to know how the theme ―Family Values‖ was visualized in the movie. Using qualitative approach and Semiotics analysis method, this study focused on how the signs and mise-en-scene in the film were interpreted based on the researchers’ interpretation using Metz’ Grand Syntagmatique (1974). This study was a desk research and the data were obtained from selected scenes of the movie. The results showed that there were five syntagma category used in the film; i.e.

R. Martin "What are common tropes in horror movies, and how have they evolved over time?" By researching the history of horror-related storytelling in cinema, I designed an animated short that pays homage to cinematic horror. My research explores the evolution of horror-related movies and alters the aesthetics of animation to fit differing visual themes. I delve into the details of designing a character that can be altered to exist in these conjoining sections, as well as how to best cinematically tell my story. Additionally, I specifically examine the role of young women in horror movies, as well as the idea of turning mundane actions into terrifying experiences.
