REGULATION » Abdul Ladha, other buildings cut capacities Fire capacity changes will limit size of student events
Brandon Chow Senior News Writer
Recent capacity reductions on buildings around campus will limit party sizes at event hotspots such as Abdul Ladha Science Student Centre and Meekison Arts Student Space (MASS). Vancouver Fire and Rescue Services captain Rob Renning says that up until recently, incorrect occupancy loads were being used for buildings on campus. "They realized they were supposed to be following the B.C. fire code ... and not the Vancouver bylaw," he said. Renning is unsure of which specific buildings will be affect ed, and the UBC Fire Prevention office in charge ofthe new changes declined an interview request. Ren ning said the discovery stemmed from a recent function at UBC where fire investigators respond ing to an emergency call found the building to be "grossly over-occu pied."

Whether you are an enthusiast or not, you will probably attend at least one Halloween party — and as a student, buying an expensive costume you will likely MOVIES only wear once may not be an option. Instead of breaking the bank, let these eight lazy, but clever, ideas be your guide in taking the "cost" out of "costume." Text: Bailey Ramsay, staff writer. Illustrations: Luella Sun, staff illustrator. If you're a student of the bookish variety, you may find the thought ofspending Halloween amidst the boorish vices of your academic peers to be particularly re pugnant. That said, there's no reason one should dispense with academia's favour ite excuse for midterm insobriety in its entirety; the opportunity to eat coma-in ducing volumes of "fun-size" confection eries is not one to be passed lightly. Of course, one has to validate such mindless consumption, lest one's stu dious facade be sundered, and there's no better way to do this than to watch genre films ironically. To aid you on your enlightened consumption, consider the following "thinking-man's" horror movies:
Funny Games (2007): In Michael Haneke's English-language remake of his 1998 subversive German horror flick of the same name, a pair of polite young men invade a family vacation home and proceed to subject its occupants to meaningless mental and physical torture. The catch? As one of the villains points out in a roundabout way, the film is a rumination on America's demand for mindless on-screen violence — imply ing that it's ultimately the viewer who is responsible for the family's suffering.
Ginger Snaps (2000): One of very few acclaimed Canadian horror films, Ginger Snaps stars Brigitte and Ginger, two teenage goth sisters who make a suicide Fork in the road Life, giving Three-hole punched Cereal killer pact. Their plans are upset, however, when Ginger is attacked by a werewolf; Take a relatively blank shirt you lemons Inspired by the apathetic but Did you do your recycling yes gruesome transformations, violence and death ensue.

Voila: a with just a few lemons. When illusion that you have been fork in the road. life gives you lemons, make an "three-hole punched." inexpensive costume. The Cabin in the Woods (2012): Filmed just a few clicks away in Squamish, Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard's cult film lies somewhere in the ambiguous space between comedy and horror. Cabin takes all the tropes of popular American horror cinema — a group of inordinately at tractive collegestudents, some redneck maniacs and, of course, a cabin in the woods — and turns them on their head. Simultaneously a love letter and a critique ofthe genre, Cabin isameta-horrorabout horror movies.
Antichrist (2009): Widely regarded as one ofthe most difficult films to watch made in recent years, director Lars von Trier's post-modern journey into the dark recesses ofthe human psyche is both beautiful and disturbing. After an un named man and woman (the man played by the ever-unsightly Willem Defoe) lose their child in a tragic accident, they travel to a backwoods retreat in an attempt to heal their suffering. Profuse, angst-driven boning and mutilation follow thereafter.
Let the Right One In (2008): In this Swedish art house horror, Oskar, a boy chronically victimized by bullying, is Jellyfish Identity thief The Paper Hawaiian punch enamoured with the new girl who's moved Let's face it: if you live in Remember those awkward Bag Princess The minimum requirements in next door.
