1960's horror
The document discusses horror films of the 1960s. Key developments included more low-budget gore films appearing, Night of the Living Dead challenging social taboos, and zombies beginning to consume human flesh by the late 1960s. Horror films also reflected the real horrors of the Vietnam War and Manson family murders, as manufactured monsters were no longer needed to scare audiences. Comedy horror reemerged as well in films like The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Gorenography
This document discusses the rise of "torture porn" or "gore-nography" films in the 2000s that contained graphic depictions of torture. It notes that while torture had been used in horror films before, the 2000s films showed it in a more realistic and visceral way. This was influenced by real reports of torture in places like Guantanamo Bay prison. However, the genre began to decline by the late 2000s as films pushing the boundaries of gore, like Captivity, received criticism and failed commercially. Key films associated with the "torture porn" genre are identified.
Slasher and body horror
The 1980s saw advancements in special effects technology that allowed filmmakers to depict unprecedented levels of graphic gore and violence in horror movies. This corresponded with Western society's emphasis on materialism and flashiness during the decade. Slasher films and body horror movies became popular genres, with the former featuring masked killers stalking teens and the latter obsessed with gruesome depictions of the human body being maimed and mutated. Iconic films from the era included works from Wes Craven, David Cronenberg, and John Carpenter.
Thesis
This document discusses how horror films reflect societal anxieties and taboos. It argues that slasher films in particular depict the punishment of youth, sexuality, and vice to satisfy audiences' desires and alleviate guilt. While B-movies focus more on gore and spectacle, psychological horror films like Black Swan depict more personal anxieties like mental illness in a way that audiences can relate to on a deeper level. The relationship between horror audiences and what they watch is complex, with audiences deriving satisfaction from witnessing the punishment of characters who indulge in taboos.
History Of Horror
During World War II, the horror genre shifted from Britain to America as horror films were banned in Britain. Hollywood studios like Universal began producing more horror films to entertain domestic audiences. These 1940s horror films often featured creatures influenced by the war, including Frankenstein, werewolves, and cat people. One influential film was 1941's The Wolf Man, which established werewolf tropes like transformations during the full moon and vulnerability to silver. Another hit was 1942's Cat People, a psychological thriller produced by RKO that portrayed women as dangerous figures. By the later 1940s, franchises had begun producing silly sequels like Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man that combined multiple monsters, weakening the scare factor of the original iconic
Mutant creatures and aliens
In the 1950s, audiences were introduced to movies featuring mutant creatures and aliens. Some of the most popular sci-fi films of the decade included The Thing, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, It Came from Outer Space, and War of the Worlds. These films represented the cutting edge of special effects at the time and helped draw audiences away from television. Monster movies also stemmed from public fears generated by the atomic bomb and offered a vision of destruction created by non-humans rather than humans. Films in the 1950s focused on the effects of new technologies like the atom bomb rather than the war, fueling fears that technology could mutate and deform people. This started a trend of
Film genres
This document discusses film genres and how they have evolved over time. It provides examples of common film genres like western, sci-fi, drama, and lists some hybrid genres such as sci-fi comedy and musical horror. The document also examines the concept of genre through different theorists' perspectives. It argues that genres change due to evolving audience tastes, providing horror films from the 1950s, 1980s, and 2000s as an example of the genre becoming more graphic and intense over time to scare modern audiences.

These films featured iconic monsters created by makeup artist Jack Pierce and starred actors like Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi who built careers in the genre.
