Universal Studios — New Episodes & Show Notes — You Must Remember This Universal Classic Monsters is a name given to the horrorfantasythriller and science fiction films made by Universal Pictures during the decades of the s through the s. They were the first shared universe in the entire movie industry in Hollywood and around the world. Universal Classic Monsters began in the late s during the silent film era. Actors Dwight Frye and Edward Van Sloanwho played major supporting roles in both films, made several film appearances in this decade. Make- up artist Jack Pierce created several monsters' make-up starting in the s. The Mummy starring Karloff, was produced in Universal began releasing sequels 1931-1946 Bride of Frankenstein and 1931-1946 Daughter The first mainstream 1931-1946 picture appeared, Werewolf of London starring Henry Hull. The end of Universal's first run of horror films came in The monster movies were dropped from Universal Horrors: The Studios Classic Films production schedule altogether and would not re-emerge for another three years. In the meantime, a theater owner revived Dracula and Frankenstein as a resoundingly successful double feature, prompting the studio to re-release the original movies. Son of Frankensteinstarring Basil RathboneBoris Karloff, and Bela Lugosi, was filmed as a result of the unexpected resurgence. The junior Chaney became the studio's leading monster movie actor in the s, just as his father had been two decades earlier, supplanting the s' Karloff and Lugosi by a wide margin in terms of the number of leading roles that he played. Chaney Jr. The studio dropped the "Jr. Son of Dracula featured Chaney Jr. House of Frankenstein and House of Dracula featured many of the monsters from the studio's previous films, with Glenn Strange taking over the Frankenstein's monster role 1931-1946 Karloff, albeit with only tiny increments of screen time in either picture. Abbott and Costello also appeared in other comedy films featuring characters such as the Mummy and the Invisible Man. Creature from the Black Lagoondirected Universal Horrors: The Studios Classic Films Jack Arnoldwas released in Dracula and Frankenstein were re-released as double features in theatres, and were later broadcast in syndication on American Universal Horrors: The Studios Classic Films in as part of the Shock Theater package of Universal monster movies. Universal spent the last half of the decade issuing a number of one-shot monster films. Sincea new collection of stand-alone horror films is being distributed by Universal; it was originally planned as a shared cinematic universe, but those 1931-1946 were later Universal Horrors: The Studios Classic Films. Originally conceived as a cinematic universe that was officially titled the 1931-1946 Universewith multiple crossovers and inter-connectivity between films, the label is now used colloquially by some media outlets to refer to Universal Pictures' rebooted franchises. Conceptualized as a shared universe, the studio had announced the projects in development with a press release announcing the intellectual property's title, a trailer, casting announcements, and official theme music composed by Danny Elfman. Casting included: Russell Crowe as Dr. Henry Jekyll and Mr. After mixed critical reception to the first two installments, Universal halted development on further projects, while their plans for future releases were reassessed. The studio's first attempt at launching their shared universe, Dracula Untold was originally developed prior to the plans for a shared universe of horror films. The studio decided to retool the movie to be the first installment of the franchise, with re-shoots adding a modern-day setting at the end of 1931- 1946 film. Released on October 10,the film's mixed financial and critical reception resulted in the film's presence within the franchise to be downplayed.

[email protected] [my preferred method] 812-335-9868 (home) This syllabus is available in alternative formats upon request. Overview The vampire is one of the most popular and enduring images in the world, giving rise to hundreds of monster movies around the globe every year, not to mention novels, short stories, plays, TV shows, and commercial merchandise. Yet the Western vampire image that we know from the film, television, and literature of today is very different from its eastern European progenitor. Nina Auerbach has said that "every age creates the vampire that it needs." In this course we will explore the eastern European origins of the vampire, similar entities in other cultures that predate them, and how the vampire in its look, nature, vulnerabilities, and threat has changed over the centuries. This approach will provide us with the means to learn about the geography, village and urban cultures, traditional social structure, and religions of eastern Europe; the nature and manifestations of Evil and the concept of Limited Good; physical, temporal, and societal boundaries and ritual passage that accompany them; and major historical and intellectual periods (the settlement of Europe, the Age of Reason, Romanticism, Neo-classicism, the Enlightenment, the Victorian era, up to today).

  • “The Bride of Frankenstein” (1935) by Dr
    Short Review: “The Bride of Frankenstein” (1935) by Dr. John L. Flynn Bride of Frankenstein, The (1935). Universal, b/w, 80 min. Director: James Whale. Producer: Carl Laemmle. Screenwriters: John Balderston and Willim Hurlbut. Cast: Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, Elsa Lanchester, Ernest Thesiger, Valerie Hobson, and Dwight Frye. The first of many Universal sequels following Whale’s classic, this was one of the few sequels that was actually superior to the original. After a brief prologue that pays homage to Mary and Percy Shelley, Lord Byron and their writing competition that inspired Frankenstein, the film picks up right where the original ended, with the monster (Karloff) dying in fire. But the monster did not die, and is soon out terrorizing the locals again. Dr. Praetorius (Thesiger) and his demented assistant Karl (Frye) pay Frankenstein (Clive) a visit, and soon the three are at work on a new creature (Lanchester). Not long after his “bride” is brought to life, the monster drops in to claim her, but she only has eyes for Frankenstein. Angered, the monster blows up the laboratory, and the usual conflagration consumes them all. “Bride” was clearly the most stylishly mounted production of the 1930's, and represents a high-water mark of the Golden Age of the American Horror Film. But it should be noted that the film title is really a misnomer and has contributed much to the confusion of the mad doctor's name with the monster. The title should have been "The Bride of the Monster of Frankenstein." Oh, well. Followed four years later by “Son of Frankenstein.” Copyright 2016 by John L.

  • Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art
    Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art This piano began life as a brown Recordo. The sound board was re-engineered, as the original ribs tapered so soon that the bass bridges pushed through. The strings were the wrong weight, and were re-scaled using computer technology. Six more wound-strings were added, and the weights of the steel strings were changed. A 14-inch Duo-Art pump, a fan-expression system, and an expression-valve-size Duo-Art stack with a soft-pedal compensation lift were all built for it. The Marquetry on the side of the piano was inspired by the pictures on the Arto-Roll boxes. The fallboard was inspired by a picture on the Rhythmodic roll box. A new bench was built, modeled after the bench originally available, but veneered to go with the rest of the piano.

  • The Horror Film Series
    Ihe Museum of Modern Art No. 11 jest 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Circle 5-8900 Cable: Modernart Saturday, February 6, I965 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The Museum of Modern Art Film Library will present THE HORROR FILM, a series of 20 films, from February 7 through April, 18. Selected by Arthur L. Mayer, the series is planned as a representative sampling, not a comprehensive survey, of the horror genre. The pictures range from the early German fantasies and legends, THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI (I9I9), NOSFERATU (1922), to the recent Roger Corman-Vincent Price British series of adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe, represented here by THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH (I96IO. Milestones of American horror films, the Universal series in the 1950s, include THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (1925), FRANKENSTEIN (1951), his BRIDE (l$55), his SON (1929), and THE MUMMY (1953). The resurgence of the horror film in the 1940s, as seen in a series produced by Val Lewton at RR0, is represented by THE CAT PEOPLE (19^), THE CURSE OF THE CAT PEOPLE (19^4), I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE (19*£), and THE BODY SNAT0HER (19^5). Richard Griffith, Director of the Film Library, and Mr. Mayer, in their book, The Movies, state that "In true horror films, the archcriminal becomes the archfiend the first and greatest of whom was undoubtedly Lon Chaney. ...The year Lon Chaney died [1951], his director, Tod Browning,filmed DRACULA and therewith launched the full vogue of horror films. What made DRACULA a turning-point was that it did not attempt to explain away its tale of vampirism and supernatural horrors.

  • The Elizabeth Bathory Story
    Nar. umjet. 46/1, 2009, pp. 133-159, L. Kürti, The Symbolic Construction of the Monstruous… Original scientific paper Received: 2nd Jan. 2009 Accepted: 15th Feb. 2009 UDK 392.28:291.13] LÁSZLÓ KÜRTI University of Miskolc, Miskolc THE SYMBOLIC CONSTRUCTION OF THE MONSTROUS – THE ELIZABETH BATHORY STORY This article analyzes several kinds of monsters in western popular culture today: werewolves, vampires, morlaks, the blood-countess and other creatures of the underworld. By utilizing the notion of the monstrous, it seeks to return to the most fundamental misconception of ethnocentrism: the prevailing nodes of western superiority in which tropes seem to satisfy curiosities and fantasies of citizens who should know better but in fact they do not. The monstrous became staples in western popular cultural production and not only there if we take into account the extremely fashionable Japanese and Chinese vampire and werewolf fantasy genre as well. In the history of East European monstrosities, the story of Countess Elizabeth Bathory has a prominent place. Proclaimed to be the most prolific murderess of mankind, she is accused of torturing young virgins, tearing the flesh from their living bodies with her teeth and bathing in their blood in her quest for eternal youth. The rise and popularity of the Blood Countess (Blutgräfin), one of the most famous of all historical vampires, is described in detail. In the concluding section, examples are provided how biology also uses vampirism and the monstrous in taxonomy and classification. Key words: scholarship; monstrosity; vampirism; blood-countess; Elizabeth Bathory There are several kinds of monsters in western popular culture today: werewolves, vampires, morlaks, the blood-countess and other creatures of the underworld.

  • 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.

Marty’s luck changes one day when his local television idol, Count Verdugo, host of “Count Verdugo’s Shock Theater” drops dead on live television. Seeing an opportunity, Marty creates his horror host alter-ego “Beelzeburg” and convinces the local television station to give him a shot at hosting “Shock Theater.” When it goes disastrously, Marty thinks his acting dreams are over before they’ve even begun, but it turns out the people of St. Paul can’t get enough of Beelzeburg, leading Marty to become an instant local celebrity, beloved by the city. However, the person whose respect he yearns for the most, his mother’s, he isn’t able to achieve, leading his mother to disavow Marty for turning his back on his family.
