  • Outlines the Grade Scale Percentage Equivalents Used in the Department of Communication, Media and Film
    1 University of Calgary Department of Communication, Media and Film Film Studies FILM 305.18 L01 Topic in Film Genres: The Horror Film Fall 2016 September 12 – December 7 (excluding Oct. 10) Lecture: Wednesday 17:00 – 18:50, Lab: Monday 17:00 – 19:45 Instructor: Murray Leeder Office: SS220 Office Phone: 22903381 E-Mail: [email protected] Web page: D2L available through MyUofC portal Office Hours: Wednesdays 16:00-17:00, Thursdays 11:30-12:30 Course Description The horror film is one of cinema's most durable genres, having gone through countless permutations over time. Often horror films are understood as being linked directly to the unconscious anxieties of the societies that spawn them – to understand a culture, we must know what it fears. This class examines the “classical period” of the horror film, from its inception till 1960, when Psycho is generally understood as marking a key turning point in the genre's history. It covers such material as the German and American silent horror traditions, the Universal Horror classics like Dracula and Frankenstein, Val Lewton's famously elegant and moody horror films, 50s paranoid and gimmick films, and Hammer Pictures' bloody and colourful new visions. A major ambition of this class is to show how horror can serve as a gateway into a fascinating set of historical and critical issues of race, gender, science, politics and more. What do these horror films tell us about the cultures that produced them? How do they construct “monstrosity”, and how do we see the road to the horror films of our time displayed in these early films? Objectives of the Course Attendance at lectures, screenings and tutorials, and informed participation are essential components of this course and will help determine your final grade.

AN ICEBREAKER See where students stand relative to each other and how strongly they feel about their position regarding their answer to the Teaser Question with an activity called “The Power Line,” adapted from the work of Hannah Lein. Designate one side of the room as YES and the other side of the room as NO. Invite students to move to the point in the line where their answer lies. Maybe they’re in the middle, thinking sometimes yes, sometimes not, so they’ll stand in the middle. Encourage them to talk with the people around them as they line up to make sure they’re in the right spot, the place on “The Power Line” that shows where they stand in this discussion. Once they have placed themselves where they belong, ask them to explain why they are where they are on the continuum between YES and NO.

  • Script Images & Sound Reference
    THE GAME IS ON!: THE UNRELIABLE NARRATOR – ANNOTATED SCRIPT IMAGES & SOUND REFERENCE 5.1 J: Sherlock, can you hear me? 5.2 Sherlock and John by Matchlight From: Night scene (1616-17), by Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), and A lady (design) admiring an earring by candlelight, by Godfried Schalcken (1643-1706) We wanted an atmospheric opening, in darkness and shadow, and these seventeenth century paintings provided an appropriate touchstone. 5.3 Scene Rotation From: Stranger Things (2016-) The TV series Stranger Things, which features an alternate dimension called the Upside Down, offers an homage to 1980s pop culture, drawing on the work of Steven Spielberg, Stephen King, as well as many other films, anime and video games. Moreover, the principal mystery at the heart of the first series concerns the whereabouts of a missing boy (Will, played by Noah Schapp). As such, it provided an obvious point of reference for this episode of TGIO. We decided to emulate the technique from the opening credits, involving the screen turning upside down. We also borrow from Stranger Things in our use of lights strung throughout the forest. See 5.20 for further details. Interestingly, in April 2018, filmmaker Charlie Kessler filed a lawsuit against the Duffer Brothers, claiming that their idea for the basic story of Stranger Things was copied from his 2011 short film Montauk. 1 THE GAME IS ON!: THE UNRELIABLE NARRATOR – ANNOTATED 5.4 SFX (sighs) From: Dante’s Inferno, the first part of the epic poem Divine Comedy (1308-21) One of the first sounds we hear in The Unreliable Narrator is a series of sighs.

Any latter publication shall recognise FORUM as the original publisher. FORUM ‘Fear and Terror’ 1 1 Notes on the Terror Film Keith Hennessey Brown (University of Edinburgh) Horror is, without question, among film's most enduring genres; audiences in search of thrills have been able to find a chiller to attend since the turn of the century. Even the studio of film pioneer Thomas Edison produced a 16-minute version of the Frankenstein story in 1910. The remarkable longevity of the genre does not, however, guarantee that a near century's worth of fans have all been lining up for the same motion picture show. (Lake Crane: 23) As Jonathan Lake Crane's perceptive comments indicate, the horror film is a remarkably resilient and adaptable film genre, one that has been able to meet the needs of successive generations of audiences in a way that others, like musicals and westerns, apparently have not, in the light of their declining production in recent decades.

The back of a dry goods house on Wop Hill, the sun coming through the bushes. The doctor moves a bit in his car rolling past, or is it through?, the outskirts. And the Great Quarry of Leach enclosed in no way an appropriate setting, abutted upon noone in any manner. A feldspar in red leaves. The pool is blue in green in white rim-cupped edges. The oranges are loose. Walking the picket wall along, a man whose thoughts twitch as billboards blank the light. It's a gnat, its pulse, a nylon purse under ultraviolet fixture in daylight. Even the large houses are small, inside the television a blue in grey. A football star with "Glass" on his jersey back. Nothing is lacking nor waiting for the fire in the grate, the mumbles over walnuts, the glance past an andiron. I have gone here to come away glanced, and moved upon.
