I'm eager to read your research papers. I hope everyone is working hard on them. Don't forget to cite sources properly and follow the writing guidelines in the syllabus.

All of the available Chaney material is on youtube. You can watch <i>The Penalty, Shock</i> and many, many more! Here is <i>The Monster</i>; one we've actually watched in class before, but won't have time for this go round. This one enters into our "dark house" section of the course (movies centering around the concept of a mystery and a vast, old and creepy mansion).

<br />Since we are missing class, and for those of you paying attention, here is a posting of the "recreated" <i>London After Midnight</i>, with Lon Chaney. You'll recall that I lectured in class about this film, which was destroyed in a fire. No remaining copies exist, but here is a re-creation using various shots and stills. <br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

To the right is the updated class schedule.

Well, if you made it here you've discovered our class blog. Hopefully you'll find this as a helpful resource as you make your way thru the History of Silent Horror Cinema course. You may want to check this page on occasion for important details concerning what we've discussed. Starting out, you'll need to pick up this book as soon as you can:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Silent-Screams-History-Horror-Film/dp/1936168154/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1346200004&sr=8-2&keywords=steve+haberman+silent+screams" target="_blank">Silent Screams: The History of the Silent Horror Film by Steve Haberman</a><br />
<br />
This is the textbook for the course, and very useful long after the class is over, as you'll find it a great resource for the subject of silent horror films. <br />
<br />
I have a question or two for you early on before you start to learn about this subject: What do you think of when you think of early cinema efforts? Have you been exposed to much of these in your life? Why do you think artists, writers and musicians of the turn-of-the-century might have been attracted to the allure of the new technology of the cinematic camera? <br />
<br />
Think of about these points as we kick off the class...and, as Lugosi states in the film "Dracula"...."I bid you......<i>welcome!</i>"Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046251626285017697.post-25696048715795112602011-12-08T12:27:00.003-06:002011-12-08T12:29:07.194-06:00He Who Is Mr. Lon Chaney<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Vua-Y0kuPSo/TuEBrBuODoI/AAAAAAAABAQ/nHFEYq88bmg/s1600/hewhogetsed%252Bcopy.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 270px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Vua-Y0kuPSo/TuEBrBuODoI/AAAAAAAABAQ/nHFEYq88bmg/s400/hewhogetsed%252Bcopy.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683826043426573954" border="0" /></a>Jennifer found a wonderful shot of Mr. Chaney taking "5" with some of the others from "He Who Gets Slapped".

It is my greatest hope that these films will be part of your lives, now that you are "in the know", and you'll do your best to spread their joy to other people!<br /><br /> I hope you will explore many of the art movements that have influenced these films as well; German Expressionism, Futurism, Dada, Surrealism, Romanticism, and many others. As discussed in class, these films were not created in a vacuum, and, if not for these movements in art, there would be little on the screen to catch your eye. <br /><br />This particular class has done very well on enthusiasm, attendance and grades...you should be proud of your hard work. Be prepared for the final test and review the films for it. Have your term papers ready for me as well.<br /><br />See you Friday the 13th at 2:00 (there will be a bonus screening at the conclusion of the final test...stay tuned for the very entertaining mystery film)!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046251626285017697.post-35784288831707671162011-04-29T12:31:00.002-05:002011-04-29T12:38:30.003-05:00Friday the 13th...How Lucky Can One Be?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-puX733kJIKY/Tbr2Lfep5NI/AAAAAAAAA9s/w4eVrIbElxs/s1600/Nosferatu1922.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 314px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-puX733kJIKY/Tbr2Lfep5NI/AAAAAAAAA9s/w4eVrIbElxs/s400/Nosferatu1922.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601059763877700818" border="0" /></a>An amazing photo of Max Schreck taking a break on the set of <span style="font-style: italic;">Nosferatu</span> (thanks Sarah!).

Alpha Video may be known for "bargain bin" cheapies, but how else are you going to score a double feature of Lon Chaney for 6 bucks? Those of you living the "virtual download" life, may see little value in owning the thing on plastic, but for the few (like myself) who have to own a hard-copy to feel like you own something, then this may be a good way for you to "mop up" some of the harder to find titles.

You may have noticed that we quickly made this book popular over on Amazon, soaring the price to over a 100 bucks! Avoid that, and go here instead and get it at a good price!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.midmar.com/historysilentscreams.html">http://www.midmar.com/historysilentscreams.html</a><br /><br /><br /><img src="file:///Users/ronking1/Desktop/silentscreamsNEWt.gif" alt="" />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046251626285017697.post-69095903566497686352011-01-21T10:22:00.003-06:002011-01-21T10:25:26.182-06:00Blog Updated...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ssJ5LlxVVGg/TTmzLFP06zI/AAAAAAAAA8k/nP48Jb1z1QI/s1600/Nos..jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 234px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ssJ5LlxVVGg/TTmzLFP06zI/AAAAAAAAA8k/nP48Jb1z1QI/s320/Nos..jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564675817561451314" border="0" /></a>I've gotten rid of the dead Youtube links to films and re-upped as many as possible.

You might check Youtube for other versions (I couldn't bring myself to post the full version that's being offered over there because there is a 20 sec. advertisement at the beginning that ruins the link on our page, in my opinion. If you click on that version you can see the film in a single session without having to click on "parts", but Youtube, more like "Theirtubes", ad policy I find disgusting and distasteful).Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
