This essay explores the impacts Italian Giallo films had on the first American slasher films. While the genre’s popularity has waxed and waned over time, it has continued to evolve and has consistently been present in one form or another. Joe Cockrell of the University of North Caroina Wilimington explores how the slasher film has adopted several of its key tropes from giallo, including the “killer” character, highly elaborate death scenes, and a connection between sex and violence.
This highly anticipated presentation will take place in Conference Block 2a on Friday March 26 at 4:00pm and in Conference Block 2b on Sunday March 28 at 1:00pm. You don’t want to miss this presentation! Click http://www.visionsffc.org/attend to purchase your all access badge

This study builds upon historical musicology and recent film music studies to argue that the disparity between John Williams’s popular reception and the reception from music critics and scholars may be due to the biases of the nineteenth-century Romanticism. Jessica Stookey of the University of North Carolina Greensboro explores how these biases outline the nature of the composer, the scores, and the relationship between classical music and pop culture.
