I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE (1943) d. Jacques Tourneur (USA) THE LEOPARD MAN (1943) d. Jacques Tourneur (USA) THE SEVENTH VICTIM (1943) d. Mark Robson From 1942 to 1946, when rust was appearing on the Frankenstein Monster’s neck bolts, Dracula was growing longer in the tooth, and swaddled, swollen mummies were limping along, both literally and figuratively, a savior appeared on the horror horizon, who would provide welcome counter-programming to the usual parade of fur, fangs, and putty. That man was Val Lewton, and his debut production with RKO, 1942’s Cat People, heralded a new style of horror, where less was infinitely more, where shadows grew ripe with menace lurking just beyond the edge of the frame. Tonight, we’ll be discussing Lewton’s 1943 follow-ups to Cat People, all three of which are celebrating their 80th anniversary: I Walked With a Zombie, The Leopard Man, and The Seventh Victim. Join AC and another fantastic panel of guests, S.A. Bradley (Hellbent for Horror), Stan Hyde (G-Fest), and Bobby Zier (Lugosi Theatre) as they discuss the Lewton Legacy. In the dark. In the quiet. In the shadows....--------------------------------------- S.A. BRADLEY hosts the “Hellbent for Horror” podcast, is the author of “Screaming for Pleasure: How Horror Makes You Happy and Healthy,” and lectured at Webster University and The College of Idaho. His show, “My Horror Manifesto,” played in NYC. STAN HYDE teaches, examines, and consults on international film programs for students (International Baccaluareate's Film Course), as well as writing about model making, film history, and some fiction. He is winner of the Mangled Sky-Scraper Award for helping bring G-FEST, the annual Godzilla Convention in Chicago to life since 1995, and is a 2021 Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy Association Hall of Fame recipient for his work with science fiction conventions, clubs, and fanzines.
BOBBY ZIER has a passion for Dracula and runs a TikTok and YouTube channel called Lugosi Theatre. He recently received a Rondo Award for his effort in keeping classic horror alive and well. ------------------------------------------------------Keep Searching, Keep Exploring, and, most of all, Keep Sharing the Scare!!
