Ron Hoffman writes: My evening film class meets on Halloween night, and I want to show them a four or five star quality horror film (almost, but not quite an oxymoron). I'm thinking of showing DON'T LOOK NOW, but I am open to other titles for consideration. I would also appreciate any recommendations on supporting literature either on the horror genre or on a specific film that's recommended. Thanks for your help." Mine meets that night too (and they have an exam--now *that's* scary!). I'm showing the original INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS (but I'm also fond of Kaufman's remake). Along more traditional lines, students might find the following to be more curiosities than horror, but if they tolerate black and white films, the following might be of interest: THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI NOSFERATU VAMPYR Tod Browning's DRACULA FRANKENSTEIN and THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN FREAKS A bit off the track (and with a ridiculous last-minute happy ending) NIGHTMARE ALLEY--one of the most disturbing of films noirs. Val Lewton's films, especially CAT PEOPLE and I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE, might be good barometer of whether subtlety can work any more.
