  • 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.

  • BAM Presents NYC Horror, Oct 31—Nov 5, a Series of New York Nightmares
    BAM presents NYC Horror, Oct 31—Nov 5, a series of New York nightmares October 3, 2019/Brooklyn, NY—From Thursday, October 31 through Tuesday, November 5, BAM presents NYC Horror, a series that explores the terrors, both supernatural and quotidian, of life in New York City. The series begins with Michael Almereyda’s downtown vampire film, Nadja (1994), which blends poetic horror and deadpan comedy, accompanied by lustrous black-and-white cinematography and a dreamy soundtrack featuring My Bloody Valentine and Portishead. Other films include Bill Gun’s visionary, avant- garde mélange of vampire tales and Afrocentric mythologies Ganja & Hess (1973), which filmed at the Brooklyn Museum; Brian De Palma’s Staten Island-set, lurid psychosexual thriller Sisters (1973); Mary Harron’s controversial, bloody satire of Wall Street greed and white male privilege American Psycho (2000); Michael Winner’s satanism-in-Brooklyn shocker The Sentinel (1977); Larry Cohen’s subversive, sci-fi portrait of society gone mad God Told Me To (1976), as well as his Q (1982), the director’s homage to Ray Harryhausen-style creature-features; and Michael Wadleigh’s werewolf flick-cum-gentrification critique Wolfen (1981). The series continues with Mark Robson and B-movie producer extraordinaire Val Lewton’s Greenwich Village-set The Seventh Victim (1943), one of the most haunting, transgressive horror films of Hollywood’s Golden Age; the Wes Craven-directed Eddie Murphy cult comedy Vampire in Brooklyn (1995); George P. Cosmatos’ darkly relatable tale of man-versus-rat, Of Unknown Origin (1983); writer- director-producer-star James Bond III’s stylish monster horror Def by Temptation (1990), shot by legendary cinematographer Ernest Dickerson; and cult auteur Larry Fessenden’s portrait of alcoholic paranoia and emotional (and possibly literal) vampirism, Habit (1995).

  • Val Lewton, Entre Dos Sombras
    Ramón Moreno Cantero Val Lewton, entre dos sombras 2003 - Reservados todos los derechos Permitido el uso sin fines comerciales Ramón Moreno Cantero Val Lewton, entre dos sombras «¿A qué cosa crees que tiene más miedo la gente? A la oscuridad, porque en ella todo cobra vida propia...» El productor Jonathan Shields (Kirk Douglas) explicando a su director cómo hacer un film sobre hombres pantera en The Bad and the Beautiful (Vicente Minnelli, 1952). Vladimir Ivan Leventon fue definido por Jacques Tourneur como una persona «de apariencia serena, bastante sólida, pero que bulle en su interior; y eso fue lo que le mató, creo». En buena medida, esa opinión podría constituir un epitafio cinematográfico, ya que cualquiera de los nueve films fantásticos que escribió (en mayor o menor medida) y produjo entre 1942 y 1946 esconden algo más que historias sobre zombies, mujeres pantera, profanadores de tumbas o adoradores de Satán: estos personajes son aprovechados como meros esqueletos iconológicos que darán cuerpo a un entramado simbólico, un cortinaje de sombras sobre la realidad que se descorre parcialmente (o se transparenta) dejando ver otra realidad, menos aprehensible, pero no por ello menos existente. Como se verá, los protagonistas de Lewton destacan por su aspecto normal, casi cotidiano, con una «apariencia serena» que oculta, por lo menos, una personalidad dual: es decir, «bullen en su interior». No sólo los personajes de Lewton se movían entre sombras (externas e internas), sino su propia carrera, basculando entre dos: una le persiguió

  • Westerns…All'italiana
    Issue #70 Featuring: TURN I’ll KILL YOU, THE FAR SIDE OF JERICHO, Spaghetti Western Poster Art, Spaghetti Western Film Locations in the U.S.A., Tim Lucas interview, DVD reviews WAI! #70 The Swingin’ Doors Welcome to another on-line edition of Westerns…All’Italiana! kicking off 2008. Several things are happening for the fanzine. We have found a host or I should say two hosts for the zine. Jamie Edwards and his Drive-In Connection are hosting the zine for most of our U.S. readers (www.thedriveinconnection.com) and Sebastian Haselbeck is hosting it at his Spaghetti Westerns Database for the European readers (www.spaghetti- western.net). Our own Kim August is working on a new website (here’s her current blog site http://gunsmudblood.blogspot.com/ ) that will archive all editions of the zine starting with issue #1. This of course will take quite a while to complete with Kim still in college. Thankfully she’s very young as she’ll be working on this project until her retirement 60 years from now. Anyway you can visit these sites and read or download your copy of the fanzine whenever you feel the urge. Several new DVD and CD releases have been issued since the last edition of WAI! and co-editor Lee Broughton has covered the DVDs as always. The CDs will be featured on the last page of each issue so you will be made aware of what is available. We have completed several interviews of interest in recent months. One with author Tim Lucas, who has just recently released his huge volume on Mario Bava, appears in this issue.
