  • The Monster-Child in Japanese Horror Film of the Lost Decade, Jessica
    The Asian Conference on Film and Documentary 2013 Official Conference Proceedings Osaka, Japan “Our Fear Has Taken on a Life of its Own”: The Monster-Child in Japanese Horror Film of The Lost Decade, Jessica Balanzategui University of Melbourne, Australia 0168 The Asian Conference on Film and Documentary 2013 Official Conference Proceedings 2013 Abstract The monstrous child of Japanese horror film has become perhaps the most transnationally recognisable and influential horror trope of the past decade following the release of “Ring” (Hideo Nakata, 1999), Japan’s most commercially successful horror film. Through an analysis of “Ring”, “The Grudge” (Takashi Shimizu, 2002), “Dark Water” (Nakata, 2002), and “One Missed Call” (Takashi Miike, 2003), I argue that the monstrous children central to J-horror film of the millenial transition function as anomalies within the symbolic framework of Japan’s national identity. These films were released in the aftermath of the collapse of Japan’s bubble economy in the early 1990s — a period known in Japan as ‘The Lost Decade’— and also at the liminal juncture represented by the turn of the millennium. At this cultural moment when the unity of national meaning seems to waver, the monstrous child embodies the threat of symbolic collapse. In alignment with Noël Carroll’s definition of the monster, these children are categorically interstitial and formless: Sadako, Toshio, Mitsuko and Mimiko invoke the wholesale destruction of the boundaries which separate victim/villain, past/present and corporeal/spectral. Through their disturbance to ontological categories, these children function as monstrous incarnations of the Lacanian gaze. As opposed to allowing the viewer a sense of illusory mastery, the J- horror monster-child figures a disruption to the spectator’s sense of power over the films’ diegetic worlds.

  • The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema a Thesis
    The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Jordan G. Parrish August 2017 © 2017 Jordan G. Parrish. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema by JORDAN G. PARRISH has been approved for the Film Division and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Studies Matthew R. Shaftel Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 Abstract PARRISH, JORDAN G., M.A., August 2017, Film Studies The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis argues that Japanese Horror films released around the turn of the twenty- first century define a new mode of subjectivity: “undead subjectivity.” Exploring the implications of this concept, this study locates the undead subject’s origins within a Japanese recession, decimated social conditions, and a period outside of historical progression known as the “Lost Decade.” It suggests that the form and content of “J- Horror” films reveal a problematic visual structure haunting the nation in relation to the gaze of a structural father figure. In doing so, this thesis purports that these films interrogate psychoanalytic concepts such as the gaze, the big Other, and the death drive. This study posits themes, philosophies, and formal elements within J-Horror films that place the undead subject within a worldly depiction of the afterlife, the films repeatedly ending on an image of an emptied-out Japan invisible to the big Other’s gaze.

  • Howling Village. Written by Daisuke Hosaka and Takashi Shimizu, and Directed by Takashi Shimizu
    67 Howling Village. Written by Daisuke Hosaka and Takashi Shimizu, and directed by Takashi Shimizu. Toei Company, Ltd., 2020. Howling Village (Japanese: Inunaki-mura) is a Japanese horror film by Takashi Shimizu, beautifully filmed on-site in Fukuoka Prefecture. It is the first film of Shimizu’s Villages of Dread series, to be followed in February 2021 by Suicide Forrest Village (Japanese: Jukai-mura). Shimizu is best known for the Ju-On franchise, which began with his first feature-length film, the direct-to- video Ju-On: The Curse (Japanese: Ju-On) (2000) and became internationally well-known through the success of the third film of the franchise, the theatrically released Ju-On: The Grudge (Japanese: Ju-On) (2002). While family plays a thematic role through domestic violence and abuse in the Ju- On franchise as well as in Shimizu’s Innocent Curse (Japanese: Kodomo Tsukai) (2017) and, to an extent, Reincarnation (Japanese: Rinne) (2005), the family-centered story of Howling Village expands urban legends concerning a village in Inunaki (literally meaning “Dog Barking”) into a complex narrative concerning bloodlines and borderlines. It thereby draws audiences to face their own identity and the nature of their humanity. The film’s story follows young clinical psychologist Kanade Morita (Ayaka Miyoshi), who lives with her parents, older brother Yuma (Ryota Bando) and elementary-school age brother Kota (Hinata Kaizu). After Yuma and his girlfriend Akina (Rinka Otani) venture through the old, blocked-off Inunaki Tunnel into Inunaki Village, Akina’s behavior becomes strange and she soon dies. While Yuma, along with Kota, goes missing after returning to the tunnel, Kanade is troubled by her experiences of seeing what seem to be ghosts.

  • Indie Quiets and the New Gothics
    ARTICLE Received 30 Nov 2016 | Accepted 25 Jul 2017 | Published 1 Sep 2017 DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2017.88 OPEN “It fixates”: indie quiets and the new Gothics Joan Hawkins1 ABSTRACT The article attempts to make several interventions. Following Jamie Sexton’s work on Independent Horror, it revisits the vexed status of horror within American Inde- pendent Cinema. Not only is indie horror frequently omitted from discussion of American Independent Cinema, but low budget, direct-to-DVD and video-on-demand indie horror titles are frequently omitted from academic discussions of horror. This has the effect of skewing our understanding of the genre. From there the article moves to consider a specific subgenre of indie horror that has been gaining in popularity: the Quiet Horror film—a category that contains the sub-genre of indie-Gothic films. Lastly, the paper moves on to a close reading of a specific low budget indie Gothic title, Absentia. 1 Indiana University, Cinema and Media Studies, Media School, Bloomington, IN, USA PALGRAVE COMMUNICATIONS | 3:17088 | DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2017.88 | www.nature.com/palcomms 1 ARTICLE PALGRAVE COMMUNICATIONS | DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2017.88 ike Flanagan’s Absentia (2011, FallBack Plan Produc- American Independent and horror cinema (Sexton, 70). What Mtions; US $70,000) belongs to a film cycle that straddles that means for film scholarship is an impoverished and two important trends in contemporary horror: low incomplete film history, and a frequently inaccurate portrayal budget independent production and the New Gothic. The fact of contemporary horror and contemporary horror audiences. that this film and others like it have remained outside scholarly As has been noted elsewhere, there has always been a thriving discourse indicates a certain structuring absence in genre and horror video and DVD collector culture (Hawkins, 2000).

  • Traumatic Origins in Hart and Ringu
    Traumatic Origins in Hart and Ringu Penny Crofts and Honni van Rijswijk Introduction Popular culture is a domain for legal thinking: a domain in which we can explore how law is ‘made up’, as Elaine Scarry says, before it is ‘made real’.1 It is productive to think of certain horror films as exercises in legal thinking because rules and authority are integral to both law and the horror genre. Accordingly, in this piece, we explore a popular horror film for what it reveals about the nature of legal authority and how the origins of law are ‘made up’. The primary focus of our analysis in this chapter is on the cult Japanese movie Ringu rather than the cult American remake,2 The Ring, that it inspired.3 The premise of Ringu is that anyone who watches a video of subliminal and abstract images is fated to die one week after the viewing. The video states: ‘If you do not wish to die, you must follow these instructions exactly…’ and then the video cuts to static. In the horror genre, monsters are subject to rules that are both the source of their horror and the means by which they can be defeated: zombies eat brains and need to be decapitated. Ringu is devoted to discovering the means of defeating a curse; the plot initially appears to obey the internal rules that attach to the monster, Sadako—but these rules are ultimately shown to be irrelevant. This paper explores the ways in which the genres of both law and horror construct and communicate stories of origins that are integral to power and authority.

  • ABSTRACT BALL, SARAH KELLY VIRGINIA MCKAY. the Uncanny in Japanese and American Horror Film: Hideo Nakata’S Ringu and Gore Verbinski’S Ring
    ABSTRACT BALL, SARAH KELLY VIRGINIA MCKAY. The Uncanny in Japanese and American Horror Film: Hideo Nakata’s Ringu and Gore Verbinski’s Ring. (Under the direction of Maria Pramaggiore.) In the last few decades, interest in the uncanny in the body of literary theory has surged. The uncanny is a ubiquitous presence 21st century American and abroad, and it provides a useful metaphor for understanding the implications of some of the conventions of post-modernism. This thesis explores a contemporary definition of the uncanny as manifested through two film interpretations (Ringu and Ring) of the same source material, a novel titled Ringu by Koji Suzuki. Through a brief exploration of the historical evolution of the idea of the uncanny and the various critical cruxes surrounding it, I have developed six working characteristics of the uncanny as a base for my analysis of Ringu and Ring. Furthermore, I have explored the social, historical, and cultural underpinnings of Suzuki’s original novel and its path to Japanese and eventually American theatres. Within the narrative of both films, the uncanny is manifested through extended use of the doppelganger and repetition. There is no significant difference in the films’ rendering of the uncanny through narrative. The films differ slightly in their presentation of uncanny sound and visual elements: Ringu relies primarily on sound and characters’ internal experience to produce the uncanny, whereas Ring focuses on the visual and characters’ external experience. The films unify their internal rendering of the uncanny with their metatextual (and commercial) behavior with the gaze, an aspect of both films that implicates the viewer in their propagation of the uncanny and the film franchise.
