  • Fringe Review: Renfield: in the Shadow of the Vampire 3 STARS
    Fringe Review: Renfield: In the Shadow of the Vampire 3 STARS A retelling of Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’ from the perspective of Renfield – the spider eating inmate of Dr Seward’s Asylum. By Rod Lewis on Mar 05, 2020 Fa Presented by Grist To the Mill Productions Ltd Reviewed 5 March 2020 The world premiere of this work-in-progress introduces the audience to the mind of one of classic literature’s most cherished madmen. Renfield is a character from Bram Stoker’s 1897 gothic-horror novel Dracula, who is locked in an asylum for the insane. He eats live insects in the hope of consuming their life-force. His overseer, Dr John Stewart, believes Renfield to be delusional when, in fact, he has a psychic link to the master vampire. Solo performer Ross Ericson engages for the hour-long show, but this is currently an actor’s piece, potentially limiting any attraction to broader fans of the original tale. The script is stagey and at times, slightly abstract as the character jumps between conversations with himself, an alternative personality, and the audience. The distinction is not always immediately clear and the unfolding dialogue relies a little too much on the audience knowing the source material. Death by blackout is a real possibility long before Dracula arrives on the scene. There’s no less than 10 of them over the course of the hour. The play needs some reworking and the dialogue needs checking – at one point, Renfield questions how a sparrow could enter his cell since it can’t fly through walls despite having earlier admired the moon, presumably through a cell window.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: COMMUNICATING FEAR in FILM
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: COMMUNICATING FEAR IN FILM MUSIC: A SOCIOPHOBIC ANALYSIS OF ZOMBIE FILM SOUNDTRACKS Pedro Gonzalez-Fernandez Master of Arts, 2014 Directed By: Dr. Patrick Warfield, Musicology The horror film soundtrack is a complex web of narratological, ethnographic, and semiological factors all related to the social tensions intimated by a film. This study examines four major periods in the zombie’s film career—the Voodoo zombie of the 1930s and 1940s, the invasion narratives of the late 1960s, the post-apocalyptic survivalist fantasies of the 1970s and 1980s, and the modern post-9/11 zombie—to track how certain musical sounds and styles are indexed with the content of zombie films. Two main musical threads link the individual films’ characterization of the zombie and the setting: Othering via different types of musical exoticism, and the use of sonic excess to pronounce sociophobic themes.

Madelyn turned up? HARDY (V.O.) Completely out of the blue. Haven’t seen her in fifteen years... 1INT. DRESSING ROOM/ROACH LOT/STUDIO - DAY 1 Oliver HARDY leans against the door to a dressing room, worried expression, talking to his friend Stan LAUREL. Both are in their late-40s, (at the peak of their movie careers), but to begin with we have no real clue as to who they are, where they are or what they do. They are just two guys in cheap suits talking to each other. HARDY lights up a cigarette as he talks. HARDY There she was, all gussied up on the front door step. And that’s something I never thought I’d see again. LAUREL picks up a boot (the right one) with a large hole in the sole. Using a knife he levers off the heel. LAUREL What’d she want? HARDY Twenty thousand bucks. LAUREL Twenty thousand? HARDY Fifteen years of back alimony. I ** said ‘what alimony? When we broke ** up I gave you whatever money I had ** and you took the car.’ We both ** agreed that was that. LAUREL Jeez even Mae wasn’t after that much - and she wanted me to pay for a chauffeur.

Carmen Gómez Galisteo UNED [email protected] Recibido 29 diciembre 2015 Aceptado 1 noviembre 2016 Resumen La narrativa adolescente de vampiros contemporánea ha contribuido a revitalizar el género al atraer a una nueva generación de lectores. En el proceso, la figura del vampiro ha sido sometida a una serie de cambios con el objeto de hacerla más atractiva para una audiencia adolescente predominantemente femenina. Coincidiendo con el décimo aniversario de la publicación de Crepúsculo de Stephenie Meyer, este artículo analiza cómo la saga Crepúsculo y las Crónicas Vampíricas de L. J.

Este artículo también explora los posibles efectos de esta nueva caracterización del vampiro en las mentes de los lectores y la alarma que ha causado. Palabras clave: Vampiros, literatura de vampiros, héroe byroniano, impacto literario, adolescentes.

In so doing, some changes have been introduced so as to make the figure of the vampire more appealing to a largely female teenage readership.
