Horror Film: A Critical Introduction
Favs/dislikes: 3:0. All the films mentioned in the book [url=https://books.google.co.uk/books/about/Horror_Film.html?id=Q2WkDAEACAAJ&redir_esc=y]Horror Film: A Critical Introduction[/url] by Murray Leeder. [quote]Throughout the history of cinema, horror has proven to be a genre of consistent popularity, which adapts to different cultural contexts while retaining a recognizable core. Horror Film: A Critical Introduction, the newest in Bloomsbury's Film Genre series, balances the discussions of horror's history, theory, and aesthetics as no introductory book ever has. Featuring studies of films both obscure and famous, Horror Film is international in its scope and chronicles horror from its silent roots until today. As a straightforward and convenient critical introduction to the history and key academic approaches, this book is accessible to the beginner but still of interest to the expert.[/quote] -
Fantastic Cinema (Peter Nicholls) 700 fantasy/horror/sci-fi films
Favs/dislikes: 28:0. This extensive appendix in Nicholl's book lists 700 fantasy/horror/sci-fi films,1902-1983. Note that it is not a 'best of' list. While some films are must-see classics, others are z-grade junk - there's even a few TV-movies in the mix. Nicholls may be academic but he's no snob - like Danny Peary, he believes in seeing all types of movies. Most of these appended films are reviewed in capsules (the others have already been discussed in more detail in the main body of the book). He gives titles a dual rating, one for quality (stars) and another for squeamishness (skulls). Interestingly, Nicholls embraces a broad range of movies in his critique, including the James Bond series (because of its sci-fi overtones with gadgetry, supervillians, etc) and films with a surreal, psychological, or dreamlike approach. You'd have to be a true film fan to watch the wide range of titles here - everything from Monty Python and the Muppets to Russian silent films and Italian zombie gore. -

Lavishly illustrated and painstakingly researched, Mondo Macabro boldly goes into the exotic, erotic eclectic and essential international film scene...and the results are amazing." -From the back cover of the book The book is divided into the following sections: #001-030: Crazy Kung Fu!: Hong Kong Part One #031-071: China Blue: Hong Kong Part Two #072-139: Ghosts Galore: Hong Kong Part Three #140-195: Shoe Queen of Blood Island: The Philippines #196-218: Mystics From Bali: Indonesia #219-241: The Bare Facts About Bollywood: India Part One #242-283: From Myths To Monsters: India Part Two #284-351: Dracula In Instanbul: Turkey #352-378: The Strange World of Mr Marins: Brazil #379-431: "Meat on Meat!": Argentina #432-525: Masked Men and Monsters: Mexico #526-534: When the Kissing Had to Start: Japan Part One #535-602: Thinking Pink: Japan Part Two #602-666: Bloodthirsty Eyes: Japan Part Three Missing from IMDB: Meiwaku-Daibatsu (1989) -

Amos Vogel's Film as a Subversive Art (1974)
Favs/dislikes: 3:0. Original 1974 version. This presentation of the book is very similar to the official iCM-list version. The main difference (and basically the only difference) is that this version include an additional 22 entries (examples of non-subversive films) which the official list version excludes (also, the order of the entries is slightly different). In other words, this list includes ALL films mentioned regardless if they are subversive or not. However, some films (or "entries" to be more precise) are not on IMDb yet, or appear in the book with unidentifiable stills (see bottom of list description). Films are sorted by the order they appear in the book. In some cases, the same film is discussed several times in different sections throughout the book (Blowup, 2001: A Space Odyssey, L'âge d'or, W.R. etc. They are listed here by their FIRST appearance in the book regardless if the film is discussed more thoroughly at a later stage in the book. #1-24: Acknowledgements, Preface and "The World View of Subversive Cinema" #1-2: Front cover and Back cover (and also mentioned in Acknowledgements). #25-193 :Part One - The Subversion of Form #25-37: Revolutionary Film Avant-garde in Soviet Russia #38-98: Aesthetic Rebels and Rebellious Clowns #99-117: The Destruction of Time and Space #118-131: The Destruction of Plot and Narrative #132-141: The Assault of Montage #142-160: The Triumph and Death of the Moving Camera #161-162: The Devaluation of Language #163-193: Straining towards the Limits #194-386: Part Two - The Subversion of Content #194: International Left and Revolutionary Cinema #195-257: Left and Revolutionary Cinema: the West #258-307: Left and Revolutionary Cinema: the East #308-332: Left and Revolutionary Cinema: Third World #333-338: East Germany: Against the West #339-352: Nazi Cinema #353-386: Secrets and Revelations #387-599: Part Three - Forbidden Subjects of the Cinema #387-403: The Visual Taboo #404-423: Nudity #424-468: Erotic and Pornographic Cinema #469-508: Homosexuality and Other Variants #509-514: The First Mystery: Birth #515-547: The Ultimate Secret: Death #548-575: The Attack on God #576-599: Trance and Witchcraft #600-621: Part Four - Towards a New Consciousness #600-619: Counterculture and Avant-garde #620-621: The Subversion of Subversion -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Films mentioned in the original version but not included in the revised version and/or iCM version: Staroye i novoye (Old and New) Alexander Nevsky Battleship Potemkin Ivan the Terrible Part 1 Ivan the Terrible Part 2 The Great Train Robbery Das blaue Licht Intolerance Cleopatra Der blaue Engel Gone with the Wind The Sound of Music Journal d'un curé de campagne If... O Lucky Man! The Graduate Romeo and Juliet Lebenszeichen Love Story Tout va bien ¡Que viva México! The Second in Command (The Second Coming) ...for a total of 22 additional entries compared to the iCM-version. "Nachts, wenn Dracula erwacht" page 87; never explicitly mentioned but referred to when discussing Pere Portabella's "Cuadecuc, vampir". It IS mentioned in the revised version however. "Der geile Wotan" is included here as it is mentioned and referred to, but is in fact a faulty entry (correctly replaced by the correct film "SS und Judenstern" in the revised iCM-version), page 254. Unidentifiable Keystone Film circa 1915 (page 50-51, featured still) is in fact "In the Clutches of the Gang". Unknown films/entries: UFA Newsreel, 1940 (page 194) Unidentified Nazi documentary footage (page 278) Unidentified Nazi documentary footage (page 280) Entries that aren't on IMDb: Beaver Films (Stag, 1970, USA), page 221; revised version list the years as 1967-72. The None Story (Stag, 1950s, USA), page 225; titled "The Nun's Story" in the revised version. -

Amos Vogel's Film as a Subversive Art
Favs/dislikes: 193:12. "Film as a Subversive Art was first published in 1974. According to Vogel--founder of Cinema 16, North America's legendary film society--the book details the "accelerating worldwide trend toward a more liberated cinema, in which subjects and forms hitherto considered unthinkable or forbidden are boldly explored." So ahead of his time was Vogel that the ideas that he penned some 30 years ago are still relevant today, and readily accessible in this classic volume. Accompanied by over 300 rare film stills, Film as a Subversive Art analyzes how aesthetic, sexual, and ideological subversives use one of the most powerful art forms of our day to exchange or manipulate our conscious and unconscious, demystify visual taboos, destroy dated cinematic forms, and undermine existing value systems and institutions." This list contains all movies in the revised version from 2021. Included in this list are movies: 1. with dedicated texts. 2. shown in movie stills. 3. mentioned otherwise as an example of subversive cinema in the context of the text it is mentioned in. Excluded from this list are movies that are mentioned in any other way than an example of subversive cinema. The movies are sorted by appearance in the book. Some movies appear multiple times. In that case, the preferred position is the dedicated text, then a movie still and lastly a mention. The book is divided into parts: Introduction (#1 - #20) Part 1 - Weapons of Subversion: The Subversion of Form (#21 - #170) Part 2 - Weapons of Subversion: The Subversion of Content (#171 - #355) Part 3 - Weapons of Subversion: Forbidden Subjects of the Cinema (#356 - #572) Part 4 - Towards a New Consciousness (#573 - #598) #599 is the back cover. -
BBC Culture's 'The 21st Century's 100 Greatest Films: Who Voted?' (All films)
Favs/dislikes: 6:0. All films with at least one vote in the BBC Culture poll used to create their list of "100 Greatest Films" of the 21st Century. Carlos (Olivier Assayas, 2010) appears split into three episodes here. Che (Steven Soderbergh, 2008) appears split into two parts here. The omnibus film Ten Minutes Older: The Trumpet, corresponds to Adrian Martin's #2 pick, but he singled out only Víctor Erice's entry, "Lifeline." I am assuming "Alexandre Sokurov (Aleksandr Sokurov, 2015)" refers to Sokurov's Francofonia. Not in IMDb: Storia di una Donna Amata e di un Assassino Gentile (Luigi M. Faccini, 2009) [Number 6 in Adriano Aprà's list] A Letter to Nelson Mandela (Khalo Matabane, 2013) [Number 3 in Lindiwe Dovey's list] A Commuter’s Life (What a Life!)

Rape-Revenge Films: A Critical Study
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. Movies discussed in Alexandra Heller-Nicholas's Rape-Revenge Films: A Critical Study, which "surveys a sample of rape-revenge films that span genre and national and historical boundaries to emphasize that, in regard to the treatment of sexual violence in the category, diverse notions coexisted contemporaneously and continue to do so today." Many of these films are not strictly rape-revenge, but are discussed to give context to the theme of sexual violence. Updated to include films discussed in the revised 2nd edition (2021), which has an increased focus on rape-revenge films directed by women—see the notes for more information on which films are new to the 2nd edition and directed by women.

MTV's Top 500 Videos Of All Time '97
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. broadcast May 1997 then updated Sep 1997 more mtv yearly lists https://www.imdb.com/user/ur1573305/lists There are a few positions with multiple videos, i have to figure out which is the most popular to appear on an MTV list. In some cases there will be better videos out there. For example the banned video 1 for Relax, STP Creep. The ranking is also unlikely to be sober with Wicked Game and Voices Carry among those ending up near the bottom (also check out positions 477-479), MJ being limited to 10 videos (while Madonna gets to have 7 among top 101). Smooth Criminal got banned altogether, even though Bad is on the list. -
