    APPEARANCES OF HORROR HOSTS AND HOSTESSES IN MAGAZINES Article by Jim Knusch Zach postage stamp by Jim Mattern Premier admat of SHOCK! in TV Guide In the 'golden age'­ the late 1950s and early 1960s­ of monster fandom a lot was happening. A generation weaned on television and made fearful of the evils of communism and the reality of nuclear war was coming of age. That is, they were into their teens. Both the USA and Great Britain began to resurrect (in more ways than one) and breathe a new life into many of these classic monsters in updated productions for the big screen. These new offerings were embellished with color and gore. Life magazine of Nov 11, 1957 featured a two page spread promoting new and upcoming horror and sci­fi releases from American­International Pictures. Big screen horror and monsters were in. Vintage horror movies, especially of the 1930s, were finding a welcome audience on the tube. This acceptance was so strong that it led to a repackaging of select titles being syndicated and offered weekly under the title of SHOCK! The SHOCK! TV package was seen in some areas as SHOCK THEATRE, NIGHTMARE and HOUSE OF HORROR. As was suggested by the SHOCK! promo book, some of these were hosted locally by bizarre personalities. These personalities in themselves became phenomenally popular. This was evidenced by major pictorial articles in national magazines, hundreds of fan clubs, the marketing of premiums and­most importantly­high TV ratings. To the teenage fan caught up in all of this a trip to the local newsstand would result in the purchase of a comic book, a humor magazine or an occasional 'Tales of the Crypt'­ type of periodical that was somewhere in between a comic book and pulp magazine.

  • John Zacherle, One of the First of the Late-Night Television Horror-Movie
    OBITUARIES 10/29/2016 By WILLIAM GRIMES John Zacherle as the playfully spooky Zacherley in the 1950s. Louis Nemeth John Zacherle, one of the first of the late-night television horror-movie hosts, who played a crypt-dwelling undertaker with a booming graveyard laugh on stations in Philadelphia and New York in the late 1950s and early ’60s, died on Thursday at his home in Manhattan. He was 98. His death was announced by friends and a fan website. Mr. Zacherle, billed as Zacherley in New York, was not the first horror host — that honor goes to Maila Nurmi, the Finnish-born actress who began camping it up as Vampira on KABC-TV in Los Angeles in 1954 — but he was the most famous, inspiring a host of imitators at local stations around the country. As Roland in Philadelphia (pronounced ro-LAHND) and Zacherley in New York, he added grisly theatrics and absurdist humor to the entertainment on offer, which more often than not was less than Oscar quality. He became a cult figure, making star appearances at horror conventions across the Northeast. Dressed in a long black frock coat decorated with a large medal from the government of Transylvania, Roland introduced, and interrupted, the evening’s film with comic bits involving characters who existed only as props in his crypt-cum-laboratory. John Zacherle in 2012. Julie Glassberg for The New York Times There was My Dear, his wife, recumbent in a coffin with a stake in her heart, and his son, Gasport, a series of moans within a potato bag suspended from the ceiling.

FACULTAD DE CIENCIAS DE LA COMUNICACIÓN. DEPARTAMENTO COMUNICACIÓN I JUNIO 2013 2 AGRADECIMIENTOS Nadie termina una tesis con los mismos amigos con los que empezó a escribirla. La culpa de que esta haya llegado a buen puerto es tanto mía como de las personas que me ayudaron a hacerlo. A mi amigo Andrés Peláez, que sabe de criaturas de la noche un millón de veces más que yo, le debo tardes interminables frente a una pinta de cerveza discutiendo sobre el cine de terror en España y sobre cosas que no tenían nada que ver con cine, intercambiando libros y DVDs inencontrables. Al menos la mitad de esta tesis debe su existencia a esas jornadas. A David Roas tengo que agradecerle su confianza en mí y su ejemplo. Él ha abierto el camino en el hielo para que los demás podamos pasar. A Carlos Aguilar le debo su amistad y que pusiera a mi disposición su inmenso bagaje personal y cinematográfico. También le debo algunos de los mejores platos que he probado en mi vida. Roberto Cueto me suministró una valiosa documentación. No puedo olvidarme. Antonio Lázaro-Reboll siempre tuvo tiempo para responder a mis cuestiones sobre cine de terror español desde Canterbury. Le estoy muy agradecido. Por último, a mi directora, Edisa Mondelo, le debo la misma tesis. Los aciertos contenidos en estas páginas deben atribuirse a ella; los errores a mi.

  • Invisible City: Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-Garde NOTES on the UNDERGROUND
    INVISIBLE CITY Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-garde Invisible City: Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-garde NOTES ON THE UNDERGROUND 252 Sid Sachs 253 Invisible City: Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-garde Notes on the Underground Sid Sachs In the mid-twentieth century, Philadelphia was a publishing center, its populism epito- mized by Curtis Publishing Company’s The Saturday Evening Post and Ladies Home Journal and Walter Annenberg’s TV Guide and Seventeen. The everyday American worldview—the Norman Rockwell and N.C. Wyeth versions of America—originated from these publishers. These were not aristocratic visions but, rather, the iconography of popular culture (as defined by sociologist Herbert Gans).1 In addition to Annenberg’s Triangle Publications and Curtis, Philadelphia was home to J.B. Lippincott, smaller specialty publishers such as Chilton and Cypher Press, and many others.2 Over these years, Philadelphia culture produced artifacts variously affiliated with the Beat writers, pulp fiction, experimental poetry, popular music, and a proto-punk ethos. Indeed, Philadelphia encompassed many worlds, from the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania and its elite Quaker satellite schools to Philip Barry’s patrician Tracey Lords; it brooked an even darker proletarian underworld. David Lynch noticed this chthonic condition during his Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) years in the late 1960s and Sun Ra decried the city, saying, “To save the planet, I had to go to the worst spot on Earth, and that was Philadelphia, which is death’s headquarters.”3 That sinister underbelly was best illustrated by David Goodis, an important pulp-fiction writer.
