    Page 117 FILM REVIEWS Year of the Remake: The Omen 666 and The Wicker Man Jenny McDonnell The current trend for remakes of 1970s horror movies continued throughout 2006, with the release on 6 June of John Moore’s The Omen 666 (a scene­for­scene reconstruction of Richard Donner’s 1976 The Omen) and the release on 1 September of Neil LaBute’s The Wicker Man (a re­imagining of Robin Hardy’s 1973 film of the same name). In addition, audiences were treated to remakes of The Hills Have Eyes, Black Christmas (due Christmas 2006) and When a Stranger Calls (a film that had previously been ‘remade’ as the opening sequence of Scream). Finally, there was Pulse, a remake of the Japanese film Kairo, and another addition to the body of remakes of non­English language horror films such as The Ring, The Grudge and Dark Water. Unsurprisingly, this slew of remakes has raised eyebrows and questions alike about Hollywood’s apparent inability to produce innovative material. As the remakes have mounted in recent years, from Planet of the Apes to King Kong, the cries have grown ever louder: Hollywood, it would appear, has run out of fresh ideas and has contributed to its ever­growing bank balance by quarrying the classics. Amid these accusations of Hollywood’s imaginative and moral bankruptcy to commercial ends in tampering with the films on which generations of cinephiles have been reared, it can prove difficult to keep a level head when viewing films like The Omen 666 and The Wicker Man.

  • Switchblade Comb" by Mobius Vanchocstraw
    00:00:00 Music Music "Switchblade Comb" by Mobius VanChocStraw. A jaunty, jazzy tune reminiscent of the opening theme of a movie. Music continues at a lower volume as April introduces herself and her guest, and then it fades out. 00:00:08 April Wolfe Host Welcome to Switchblade Sisters, where women get together to slice and dice our favorite action and genre films. I'm April Wolfe. Every week, I invite a new female filmmaker on—a writer, director, actor, or producer—and we talk in-depth about one of their fave genre films, perhaps one that influenced their own work in some small way, and today I'm very excited to have writer-director Alice Waddington here with me. Hi, Alice! 00:00:28 Alice Guest Hi, April! How are you? Waddington [Music fades out.] 00:00:30 April Host Oh, I'm quite well. [Alice laughs.] Despite fires raging. 00:00:32 Alice Guest Oh my goodness. 00:00:33 April Host But I gotta say your pink jumpsuit—pink corduroy jumpsuit is really livening up the place. 00:00:39 Alice Guest [Laughs.] Thank you so much. I'm—you know, I am on my Logan's Run stuff already. So. [Laughs.] 00:00:44 April Host Absolutely. I mean, Halloween should be year-round. [Alice laughs.] Okay, so for those of you who are not as familiar with Alice's work, please let me give you an introduction. Alice Waddington was born in a rural background, but she was raised in the big city of Bilbao, Spain.

  • Song Kang-Ho and the Uncanny Face of the Korean Cinema
    ACTA KOR ANA VOL. 14, NO. 1, JUNE 2011: 33–71 SOMEWHERE BETWEEN ANTI-HEROISM AND PANTOMIME: SONG KANG-HO AND THE UNCANNY FACE OF THE KOREAN CINEMA By BRIAN YECIES This article explores the trajectory of Song Kang-ho’s on-screen performances from the release of his fourth film, Number 3 (1997), to one of his most recent films, Thirst (2009). As a case study, it reveals new insights about this popular and representative actor’s numerous screen personae and how they have enabled audiences to peer into a cine- matic surface that reflects back a mixture of anti-heroism and pantomime. Beneath the many costumes and performance styles he adopts, audiences have come to see a human being with everyday problems and concerns. In a way reminiscent of the French panto- mime clown Pierrot, Song’s characters reflect a depth of human feeling and compassion modulated by a comic undercurrent—the tension between these overlapping layers is precisely what holds his various personae together. Key words: Song Kang-ho, Korean Cinema, stardom, Park Chan-wook, Kim Jee-woon INTRODUCTION Every actor and actress constructs a persona over the course of his or her career, but few become stars. A star is an actor whose persona transcends the sum total of his or her performances (Belton 1994: 89). Song Kang-ho is a classic movie star whose acting ability is well known to the film industry and whose performances are appreciated by audiences in South Korea (hereafter Korea) and abroad. He has acted in some of the contemporary Korean cinema’s most profitable and critically acclaimed feature films, productions which have contributed to the national film industry’s current global notoriety.

Jiří Blažek Exploatace Víta Olmera: Bulvární zrcadlo polistopadové společnosti Vitus Olmer's exploitation: A Sensationalistic View of Post-communist Society Praha 2015 Vedoucí práce: PhDr. David Čeněk Poděkování: V prvé řadě patří poděkování vedoucímu práce PhDr. Davidu Čeňkovi, za odborné vedení mého výzkumného záměru. Rovněţ bych chtěl poděkovat Jiřímu Flíglovi, za jeho inspirativní uvedení fenoménu exploatace do českého polistopadového prostoru. Můj vděk dále patří zbytku pedagogického sboru; jedině díky jejich individuálnímu a odbornému přístupu jsem získal potřebný rozhled a oborové znalosti. Poděkovat se sluší i mým ročníkovým kolegům; naše pestré rozpravy mi dodaly nejednu inspiraci i určující impuls, jakým směrem bych chtěl vést svůj odborný zájem. Nakonec chci ale poděkovat hlavně své rodině, bez jejíţ neutuchající podpory bych nebyl tam, kde jsem nyní. Prohlášení: Prohlašuji, ţe jsem tuto diplomovou práci vypracoval samostatně a výhradně s pouţitím citovaných pramenů, literatury a dalších odborných zdrojů. V Praze, dne 15. ledna 2015 ………………………….. ABSTRAKT Bakalářská práce se soustředí na filmovou exploataci jako bulvární fenomén. Případovým modelem výzkumu je polistopadová produkce Víta Olmera vymezená roky 1990 – 1995 nejpříznačněji odráţející nové tvůrčí demokratické podmínky, jeţ Olmer účinně zuţitkoval ve svůj prospěch, a stal se jedním z nejproduktivnějších filmařů své doby. První část analýzy mapuje status exploatačního filmu v zahraniční akademické obci a s pomocí východisek Pierra Bourdieua objasňuje, jak se logika „dobrého vkusu“ podepsala na přístupu k „nevkusné kinematografii“, jejím výzkumu, a v neposlední řadě, na postojích samotných badatelů. Následně kapitola poskytuje obecný přehled obtíţných úloh přímo vzešlých z problematické pozice exploatace ve filmových studiích, k nejzásadnější z nich patří zřídkakdy teoreticky reflektovaná samotná identita exploatačního filmu, kterou vyznačuje výrazná roztroušenost.
