The History Of Horror Films


One of my favorite interviews on our radio show was with Prof. Roy Frumkes who teaches courses in filmmaking at the School of Visual Arts in NYC. I studied Film Appreciation in high school (can you believe they had a course like that?) and have always been interested in movies and how they are made. Roy provides some great advice on how to make a good horror film and talks about the origins of this still very popular genre.

What's your favorite scarey movie?
Many other interviews can be heard on http://www.cyberears.com/.
We'll be back on www.HGRNJ.org Jan 18th. Thinking about doing an all 70's show. You remember the 70's dont you? Led Zep, Elton, Bowie, and maybe some you've never heard of.

  1. Favorite scary movie? That's tough... there are so many that stand out. But i think two that impressed me greatly in recent years are The Blair Witch Project and The Devil's Backbone. Maybe not the most popular choices, but i'll stick by 'em.
