  • Bamcinématek Presents Ghosts and Monsters: Postwar Japanese Horror, Oct 26—Nov 1 Highlighting 10 Tales of Rampaging Beasts and Supernatural Terror
    BAMcinématek presents Ghosts and Monsters: Postwar Japanese Horror, Oct 26—Nov 1 Highlighting 10 tales of rampaging beasts and supernatural terror September 21, 2018/Brooklyn, NY—From Friday, October 26 through Thursday, November 1 BAMcinématek presents Ghosts and Monsters: Postwar Japanese Horror, a series of 10 films showcasing two strands of Japanese horror films that developed after World War II: kaiju monster movies and beautifully stylized ghost stories from Japanese folklore. The series includes three classic kaiju films by director Ishirô Honda, beginning with the granddaddy of all nuclear warfare anxiety films, the original Godzilla (1954—Oct 26). The kaiju creature features continue with Mothra (1961—Oct 27), a psychedelic tale of a gigantic prehistoric and long dormant moth larvae that is inadvertently awakened by island explorers seeking to exploit the irradiated island’s resources and native population. Destroy All Monsters (1968—Nov 1) is the all-star edition of kaiju films, bringing together Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra, and King Ghidorah, as the giants stomp across the globe ending with an epic battle at Mt. Fuji. Also featured in Ghosts and Monsters is Hajime Satô’s Goke, Body Snatcher from Hell (1968—Oct 27), an apocalyptic blend of sci-fi grotesquerie and Vietnam-era social commentary in which one disaster after another befalls the film’s characters. First, they survive a plane crash only to then be attacked by blob-like alien creatures that leave the survivors thirsty for blood. In Nobuo Nakagawa’s Jigoku (1960—Oct 28) a man is sent to the bowels of hell after fleeing the scene of a hit-and-run that kills a yakuza.

  • Frankenstein Immortel
    16 FRISSON FRANKENSTEIN IMMORTEL DEUX SIÈCLES APRÈS SA NAISSANCE, LE COUPLE INFERNAL IMAGINÉ PAR MARY SHELLEY À COLOGNY CONTINUE DE FASCINER ET D’INTERROGER LES LIMITES DU SAVOIR. RETOUR SUR LA GENÈSE, LA PORTÉE ET LA POSTÉRITÉ D’UNE ŒUVRE PHARE CAMPUS N°124 DOSSIER FRANKENSTEIN 17 l y a tout juste 200 ans, le 16 juin 1816, Mary Shelley, une jeune Anglaise âgée de 18 ans se lance dans la rédaction de ce qu’elle envisage comme « un petit conte I à glacer le sang ». Publié en 1818 avant de sortir dans sa version définitive en 1831, son Frankenstein ou le Prométhée moderne a depuis fait le tour du monde. Première œuvre de science-fiction, cet ouvrage né sur les pentes de Cologny a beau avoir été adapté des centaines de fois, inspirant des artistes de tous horizons, il n’a rien perdu de sa pertinence. Au contraire: les problématiques abordées dans cet ouvrage semblent plus que jamais d’actualité. C’est vrai sur le plan de la médecine, de l’éthique et des limites du savoir scien- tifique mais aussi du climat qui a joué un rôle déterminant dans la genèse de cette histoire. Pour faire le point sur les intuitions étonnamment clairvoyantes de la romancière britannique en cette année anniversaire, l’Université propose un programme copieux où se mêlent colloques scientifiques, conférences, débats, projection de films et expositions. Ouverture des feux le 13 mai avec le vernissage, à la Fondation Bodmer, d’une exposition-événement autour de Frankenstein. Un projet piloté par David Spurr, professeur honoraire de la Faculté des lettres (Département de langue et littérature anglaises).

  • English 2333: an Abbreviated Frankenstein Filmography Dr
    English 2333: An Abbreviated Frankenstein Filmography Dr. Monica Smith [Before this class meeting, students watch the Edison Frankenstein for homework and answer three questions, and we begin class by reviewing these questions: 1) What version of the Creature does this film present: the Creature as monster, the creature as human, or something in between? 2) What aspects of Shelley’s story (characterization, plot detail, setting, imagery) have the filmmakers kept? What has been deleted? To what effect? 3) What role does music play in this film?] Frankenstein (usually called The 1910 Edison Frankenstein) Director J. Searle Dawley. Starring Charles Ogle. Edison, 1910. Silent film. Approximately 13 minutes. This is the earliest known film version of Frankenstein. Regrettably, the only surviving copy was held by a private collector who refused to let film students and scholars study or even view it. Now the film fortunately has passed into the public domain and is available via Google video. Frankenstein Director James Whale. Starring Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, and Mae Clarke. Produced by Carl Laemmle, Jr. Adaptation by Robert Florey and John L. Balderston. Screenplay by Garrett Fort, Robert Florey, and Francis Edward Faragoh. Based on the play by Peggy Webling. Universal, 1931. 71 minutes. This version makes substantive changes to both plot and character, renaming our protagonist, for one example, “Dr. Henry Frankenstein,” and calling his friend “Victor.” This film gives us many of the stock elements of the twentieth-century Frankenstein myth: the mad scientist in a castle on a mountaintop who cries “It’s alive! It’s alive!” when his reanimation is successful, the scientist’s hunchbacked assistant, and the robot-like, inarticulate creature with bolts in his neck.

  • Godzilla After the Meltdown-The Evolution and Title Mutation of Japan’S Greatest Monster
    Godzilla After the Meltdown-the evolution and Title mutation of Japan’s greatest monster- Author(s) HAMILTON Robert,F Citation 明治大学国際日本学研究, 7(1): 41-53 URL http://hdl.handle.net/10291/17398 Rights Issue Date 2015/3/31 Text version publisher Type Departmental Bulletin Paper DOI https://m-repo.lib.meiji.ac.jp/ Meiji University 41 【研究ノート】 Godzilla After the Meltdown: the evolution and mutation of Japan’s greatest monster HAMILTON, Robert F. Abstract: Godzilla (1954) was an allegorical fi lm condemning America’s role in the testing and use of nuclear weapons. As the Godzilla series continued over decades, Japan’s relationship with America changed, as did the metaphors and references within the fi lms. In 2014, we now have the fi rst true American addition to the Godzilla series. This paper explores some of the ways in which Godzilla’s symbolic value has changed through the years, and as the series crossed cultures. Keywords: Godzilla, disaster, fi lm, nuclear energy “In 1954 we awakened something.” - Dr. Serizawa, Godzilla (2014) Godzilla was fi rst released in Japanese theatres in 1954, during a time of deep uncertainty for the nation. A mere nine years previously, the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been devastated by atomic bombs, bringing an end to the war, and beginning an era in which Japan needed to fi nd a new identity as it began rebuilding its infrastructure, political processes, and social value systems. Japan had endured a foreign occupation, a dismantling of its military, a foreign re-writing of its constitution, and a demotion of its emperor from the status of deity, to that of fi gurehead.

  • Alternative Titles Index
    VHD Index - 02 9/29/04 4:43 PM Page 715 Alternative Titles Index While it's true that we couldn't include every Asian cult flick in this slim little vol- ume—heck, there's dozens being dug out of vaults and slapped onto video as you read this—the one you're looking for just might be in here under a title you didn't know about. Most of these films have been released under more than one title, and while we've done our best to use the one that's most likely to be familiar, that doesn't guarantee you aren't trying to find Crippled Avengers and don't know we've got it as The Return of the 5 Deadly Venoms. And so, we've gathered as many alternative titles as we can find, including their original language title(s), and arranged them in alphabetical order in this index to help you out. Remember, English language articles ("a", "an", "the") are ignored in the sort, but foreign articles are NOT ignored. Hey, my Japanese is a little rusty, and some languages just don't have articles.
