  • The Breeding Birds of Central Lower California (With Eleven Ills.)
    20 Vol. xxx11 THE BREEDING BIRDS OF CENTRAL LOWER CALIFORNIA WITH ELEVEN ILLUSTRATIONS By GRIFFING BANCROFT A Contributionfrom the San Diego Societyof Natural History By wagon road and burro trail it is an even one hundred miles from Santa Rosalia, on the Gulf of California, to the tide line of the Pacific at San Ignacio Lagoon. The intervening country is essentially a desert. The summit, which is two thousand feet high in the passes and nearly three times that altitude in the mountains, lies within ten or twelve miles of the Gulf. The two water- sheds are thus of unequal length. They are also of quite distinct configuration. On the eastern side the descent to sea-level is abrupt and precipitous, checked by two rather extensive valleys. The long western slope, on the other hand, is broken by valleys, canons, and pretentious hills. It is marked with the weird formations which are characteristic of arid North America and which are here exaggerated. Angles and profiles of silhouetted hills and table-tops are unusually harsh and for- bidding. There is not even the softening effect of grandeur. Over the major portion of the entire region lava has flowed and mesa, valley and mountains are covered with dull brown rocks. This lava sheet, though of varying thickness, normally does not exceed three feet in depth. In overlaying the ancient sandstone it parallels the slopes of the hills and the sides of the canons, while on the mesas, and sometimes in the valleys too, it is as level as they and often stretches away as far as the eye can see.

  • What Does It Mean to Be a Woman in Horror?
    What Does it Mean to be a Woman in Horror? Presentation by Maya Hendl CONTENT WARNING This presentation contains descriptions of violence, torture, kidnapping, and murder. There are no explicit images of these acts taking place, but these acts are mentioned and (briefly) described. Table of Contents 1 2 Final Girls Female Antagonists Exploring examples of female villains, why they are Exploring what they & so scary, and their ability to are, why they exist, justify their motivations in and the contexts in comparison to male which they exist antagonists 1 Final Girls Exploring what they are, why they exist, and the contexts in which they exist What Does it Mean to be a “Final Girl”? The term “final girl” was coined by Carol J. Clover in her 1993 book Men, Women and Chain Saws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film. The “final girl” is the last woman or girl left alive in a horror movie, most often within the slasher genre, that must confront the killer. Clover describes final girls as typically being sexually unavailable at the start of the film, as having sex in a horror movie is a common trope that will most likely get you killed (Alternative Press Magazine). Clover goes on to describe how, once the final girl survives, she “is ‘purged’...of undesirable characteristics, such as pursuit of pleasure in her own right. An interesting feature of the genre is the ‘punishment’ of beauty and sexual availability” (Horror Fandom Wiki). Why Do Final Girls Exist? In horror films, women are more often than not left to fight the big bad all on their own.

    THE DESCENT 2005 (u.k.) Director Neil Marshall Producers Christian Colson, Paul Ritchie, Paul Smith Screenplay Neil Marshall Photography Sam McCurdy Music David Julyan Cast Shauna Macdonald, Natalie Mendoza, Alex Reid, Saskia Mulder, MyAnna Buring, Nora-Jane Noone, Oliver Milburn, Molly Kayll, Craig Conway, Leslie Simpson One would be hard-pressed to think of a horror film in recent years that has wowed both critics and audiences alike quite as much as Neil Marshall’s sophomore effort, The Descent. While his first film, Dog Soldiers (2002) was a fun riff on the werewolf movie, The Descent is almost humor-free and more than manages to deliver the goods. Recovering after a car accident in which she lost both her husband and young daughter, Sarah (Macdonald) gets back with her cohort of extreme sport-loving girlfriends for a spelunking expedition in the Appalachians. Juno (Mendoza), the reckless one of the pack, chooses an uncharted cave to explore, and the six friends go deep within the mountains. A cave-in cuts the The idea for the poster art women off from going back the way they came, and as they came from a venture forward they run into a race of “crawlers”—humanoid- photograph by like creatures with a taste for human flesh. Philippe Halsman Whereas Dog Soldiers was a jokey romp about masculinity, of Salvador Dalí, The Descent’s focus is on the women; not as traditional horror which was itself inspired by Dali’s movie women, weak and frightened by everything around gouache painting them, but as strong, capable and tough-as-nails chicks.

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.

  • 1. Introducing the Splat Pack
    1. INTRODUCING THE SPLAT PACK The ‘New Blood’: a Name Catches On Excitement about the Splat Pack seems to have been ignited with the April 2006 issue of the British film magazine Total Film. The issue featured an article by Alan Jones, entitled ‘The New Blood’. Its title was accentuated by a ‘Parental Advisory: Explicit Content’ label to let readers know they were about to enter forbidden, dangerous territory. Evidently, the local cineplex had been transformed into dangerous territory because ‘a host of bold new horror flicks’, such as Eli Roth’s Hostel and Alexandre Aja’s 2006 remake of Wes Craven’s 1977 shocker The Hills Have Eyes, had assaulted audiences with levels of brutality missing in ‘all those toothless remakes of Asian hits starring Jennifer Connelly, Naomi Watts and Sarah Michelle Gellar’ (Jones, 2006: 101, 102). Jones devotes his article to showcasing the young directors who were ‘taking back’ horror from purveyors of ‘watered-down’ genre movies (2006: 102). One of the auteurs in the movement featured in Jones’s article is Eli Roth who positions himself as one of the power players of this movement. Jones’s article features a photo of Roth brandishing a chainsaw, a devilish smirk on his face, surrounded by photos of bloody carnage from Roth’s Hostel, including an image of a man being castrated with a pair of bolt cutters. These grisly visuals imply that Roth can deliver the gory goods. In the article, Roth – a graduate of New York University’s film school whose father and mother are, respectively, a Harvard professor and fine artist – comes across as forcefully as these images 13 BERNARD 9780748685493 PRINT.indd 13 13/01/2014 10:43 Grahams HD:Users:Graham:Public:GRAHAM'S IMAC JOBS:14636 - EUP - BERNARD (TWC):BERNARD 9780748685493 PRINT SELLING THE SPLAT PACK would suggest.

  • Film Reviews
    Page 78 FILM REVIEWS Kill List (Dir. Ben Wheatley) UK 2011 Optimum Releasing Note: This review contains extensive spoilers Kill List is the best British horror film since The Descent (Dir. Neil Marshall, 2005). Mind you, you wouldn’t know that from the opening half­hour or so. Although it opens with an eerie scratching noise and the sight of a cryptic rune that can’t help but evoke the unnerving stick figure from The Blair Witch Project (Dir. Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez, 1999), we’re then plunged straight into a series of compellingly naturalistic scenes of domestic discord which, as several other reviews have rightly pointed out, evoke nothing so much as the films of Mike Leigh. (The fact that much of the film’s dialogue is supplied by the cast also adds to this feeling.) But what Leigh’s work doesn’t have is the sense of claustrophobic dread that simmers in the background throughout Wheatley’s film (his second, after 2009’s Down Terrace ). Nor have any of them – to date at least – had an ending as devastating and intriguing as this. Yet the preliminary scenes in Kill List are in no sense meant to misdirect, or wrong­foot the audience: rather, they’re absolutely pivotal to the narrative as a whole, even if many of the questions it raises remain tantalisingly unresolved. Jay (Neil Maskell) and his wife Shel (MyAnna Buring) live in a spacious, well­appointed suburban home (complete with jacuzzi) and have a sweet little boy, but theirs is clearly a marriage on the rocks, and even the most seemingly innocuous exchange between them is charged with hostility and mutual misunderstanding.

  • The Descent of the Dove
    Charles Williams The Descent of the Dove A short history of the Holy pirit in the church (First published 1939 by Longmans Green & Company) 4 1 Preface My first intention for the title of this book was A History of Chris- tendom : it was changed lest any reader should be misled. It is open to any reader to complain that many names, of persons and events, which have been of immense importance to Christendom, have been omitted. THE DESCENT OF THE DOVE But though they have been important their omission here is unimportant. It was inevitable that this particular book should talk about Dante and not Charles Williams, who was born in 1886 and died in about Descartes, since its special themes are found much more in Dante 1945, was a writer of unusual genius in several than in Descartes. Nevertheless, I hope the curve of history has been literary forms, as well as a brilliant conversationalist justly followed, as I hope and believe that all the dates and details are and lecturer, recognised at Oxford by an honorary accurate.
