Download or read book Songs and Stories of the Ghouls written by Alice Notley and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Left dead after our cultures were broken by triumphant enemies, our stories changed to suit others. We now change them again to suit ourselves. Songs and Stories of the Ghouls purports to give power to the dead—voices to the victims of genocide both ancient and contemporary—and presence to women. Medea did not kill her sons; Dido founds a city, over and over again, the city of the present author's poetry. In these poems the poet asserts that though her art comes from a tradition as broken as Afghanistan's statuary, there is always a culture to pass on to one's children, and one is always involved in doing so. We are the ghouls, the drinkers of the blood-sacs, and we insist that we are alive.
Download or read book The Year s Work at the Zombie Research Center written by Stephen Watt and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2014-09-22 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Playful and (un)deadly serious . . . chew[s] through a near-exhaustive array of films, television, literature, culture, music and even cocktails.”—Times Literary Supplement They have stalked the horizons of our culture, wreaked havoc on moribund concepts of dead and not dead, threatened our sense of identity, and endangered our personal safety. Now zombies have emerged from the lurking shadows of society’s fringes to wander the sacred halls of the academy, feasting on tender minds and hurling rot across our intellectual landscape. It is time to unite in common cause, to shore up defenses, firm up critical and analytical resources, and fortify crumbling lines of inquiry. Responding to this call, Brain Workers from the Zombie Research Center poke and prod the rotting corpus of zombie culture trying to make sense of cult classics and the unstoppable growth of new and even more disturbing work. They exhume “zombie theory” and decaying historical documents from America, Europe, and the Caribbean in order to unearth the zombie world and arm readers with the brain tools necessary for everyday survival. Readers will see that zombie culture today “lives” in shapes as mutable as a zombie horde—and is often just as violent. “An intelligent and highly engaging collection that will appeal to legions of zombie fans, to students in the humanities, and to scholars working in fields that have already been affected by or are now preparing for the zombie apocalypse. It blends entertaining, illuminating, and accessible readings of zombies and zombie culture with unique interventions made from authoritative positions of expertise.”—Julian Murphet, author of Faulkner’s Media Romance

Download or read book Ghouls Gimmicks and Gold written by Kevin Heffernan and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2004-03-25 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Creature from the Black Lagoon, the Tingler, the Mole People—they stalked and oozed into audiences’ minds during the era that followed Boris Karloff’s Frankenstein and preceded terrors like Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare on Elm Street) and Chucky (Child’s Play). Ghouls, Gimmicks, and Gold pulls off the masks and wipes away the slime to reveal how the monsters that frightened audiences in the 1950s and 1960s—and the movies they crawled and staggered through—reflected fundamental changes in the film industry. Providing the first economic history of the horror film, Kevin Heffernan shows how the production, distribution, and exhibition of horror movies changed as the studio era gave way to the conglomeration of New Hollywood. Heffernan argues that major cultural and economic shifts in the production and reception of horror films began at the time of the 3-d film cycle of 1953–54 and ended with the 1968 adoption of the Motion Picture Association of America’s ratings system and the subsequent development of the adult horror movie—epitomized by Rosemary’s Baby. He describes how this period presented a number of daunting challenges for movie exhibitors: the high costs of technological upgrade, competition with television, declining movie attendance, and a diminishing number of annual releases from the major movie studios. He explains that the production and distribution branches of the movie industry responded to these trends by cultivating a youth audience, co-producing features with the film industries of Europe and Asia, selling films to television, and intensifying representations of sex and violence. Shining through Ghouls, Gimmicks, and Gold is the delight of the true horror movie buff, the fan thrilled to find The Brain that Wouldn’t Die on television at 3 am.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring tons of fun facts about the series alongside a walkthrough of all books and covers in the Goosebumps collections, this art book is a must-have for old and new fans alike! In the summer of 1992, Scholastic tasked two terrifyingly talented artists with creating the cover paintings for the books that would premiere the Goosebumps series. At that time, four books in the line were being market-tested by the publisher to see how young readers would react to R.L. Stine’s particular brand of humor-tinged horror. One element that was sure to catch the attention of little eyes everywhere was striking cover art, and, boy, did they find it! The imagery provided by the covers of the Goosebumps series is part and parcel to the 90s Kid zeitgeist, helping to create a visual brand for R.L. Stine’s smash-hit horror series. The covers helped set the tone for the numerous adaptations of the series, including a television series, a theatre experience, and, more recently, blockbuster films!
Download or read book Adventures with an Interdimensional Psychopath written by Wayne Keeler and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-27 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adventures With An Interdimensional Psychopath: An Introduction To Madness By: Wayne Keeler The Author Wayne Keeler wanted to challenge the impossible and to try and open the imagination of people to see possibilities and think outside the box. The author is an advent philosopher and one strong theory that he mulls around thinking about is the Alternate Dimensional theory, which basically states that when a decision is made, infinite and endless possibilities branch off, creating alternate worlds that can vary either very drastically or very minimally. The only thing that limits the possibilities is one’s own imagination. But, while this can be a dual edged sword, this can also lead to truly wondrous and beautiful ideas that can bring about a beautiful world. Join Lily Extravagund on her adventure with an interdimensional psychopath to see the worlds in a new light. Lily Extravagund was a normal girl, studying and preparing for her future in the upper echelon. A simple tool to be used to help her sister get a step higher, until she runs into a complete and utter strange stranger. When she confronts them, it’s at this moment that when her world gets turned upside down and inside out. When things start looking up, they immediately spiral in ways beyond imagination. When her life hits the lowest possible point, the stranger intervenes again to introduce her to new possibilities that changes her life forever. With these changes, she could never go back to seeing how things were again.
