Cunningham
Friday the 13th
(1980)
opening scene
the politics of viewing (making us uncomfortable or complicit? The use of pov to put us in the surveillance seat)
coaches us to set up a binary: active = masc/passive = femme. Slow and deliberate pacing (again sets up masculine?)
cop scene:
weirdly no sense of authority. Lets the kids just run over him. Also weirdly harassey?
"town crazy"
Ralph "This place is cursed" "I'm a messenger of God" --sets up the trope of using a "crazy" person to warn and shock? Maybe uses irony to undermine the standards of "crazy"?
Neddy in the headdress (establishes racism) and we are oriented against him
where does the pleasure of this film come from?
the fun comes from seeing the blood?
it's fun to watch these teens die?
the pornographic/slasher border blurred
shock factor
the fun of punishing sex (heterosex?)
Kevin Bacon Death Scene
affective responses (making our bodies do a thing)
She in under the bed--back to the politics of watching/voyeurism
the earlier sex scene soundscape felt more like wimpers? Sex and murder blended--in this case, it feels pretty sex negative; sex under a corpse
Mrs. Vorheese
the sentimental backstory: sad mother monologue
"crazy" women
surprises us with the gender! Shock--lady killer
