THE MISKATONIC INSTITUTE OF HORROR STUDIES – LONDON UNVEILS FALL 2016 LINEUP<\/p>\n

The Miskatonic Institute of Horror Studies – London returns to the Horse Hospital for another semester of film and pop culture classes, with a 2016 fall line-up led by some of the genre world\u2019s most renowned critical luminaries. <\/p>\n

Mark Pilkington (Owner of Strange Attractor Press, writer\/director of Mirage Men<\/i><\/a>) launches the season in September with his lecture Rituals in the Dark: Evoking Magic on Film<\/b>. From the grit of medieval grimoires and spellcraft to the spiritual liberation of mid-twentieth century witchcraft, this lecture will look at a number of representations of magic on film, from the silent era, through Expressionism, B-movies, the avant garde and into the mainstream. <\/p>\n

He will be followed in October by visiting instructor Daniel Bird, whose studies in Poland led to his becoming the pre-eminent biographer of both Walerian Borowczyk<\/a> and Andrzej Żuławski<\/a>. In Vulgar Structures; or Andrzej Żuławski\u2019s Love Triangles<\/b>, he will use his intimate knowledge of the late Żuławski\u2019s work to look at the love triangle fundamental to all of his films, and to square it with this remarkable director’s life and loves. <\/p>\n

In November, Warwick University scholar Catherine Lester will present Little Terrors: Children\u2019s Horror on Film and Television<\/b>. This class will explore in detail the area of horror films and television programmes created specifically for children in the UK and the US, with an emphasis on programming from the 70s and 80s. <\/p>\n

And to close the season, the Horse Hospital turns into The Black Lodge when acclaimed horror author Maura McHugh visits from Ireland to bring us Working the Blue Rose Case: Signs, Codes, and Mysteries in David Lynch’s Fire Walk with Me<\/i><\/b>. <\/p>\n

Named for the fictional university in H.P. Lovecraft\u2019s literary mythos, The Miskatonic Institute of Horror Studies is a non-profit, community-based organisation that started in Winnipeg and Montreal, Canada, founded by Kier-La Janisse in March of 2010. Miskatonic London operates under the co-direction of Kier-La Janisse and Virginie Sélavy. <\/p>\n

All classes take place at the historic Horse Hospital, the heart of the city\u2019s underground culture. Registration for the full season is \u00a335. Individual class tickets are \u00a310 advance \/ \u00a311 on the door \/ \u00a38 concessions and will be available 30 days in advance of each class. <\/p>\n
