Niall Kitson is an author at TechCentral.ie as well as the Head of Digital (Technology Division) at Mediateam. Kitson has written many short stories and even won a Parsec award for best speculative fiction story in 2014. Along with writing short stories, Kitson also writes articles on technology and film and television topics including his article \u201cSILVER AND RED: THE FILMS OF DARIO ARGENTO\u201d. Kitson\u2019s article begins by giving some basic information on Dario Argento and his early life as well his inspirations then continues with a short summary of his career. Kitson then continues by speaking on the aesthetic conventions and models of Argento\u2019s films and the giallo genre as a whole. Kitson then finishes by listing off Argento\u2019s top five frighteners. This source will be very useful in helping explore the aesthetic conventions of giallo as a genre through Argento\u2019s films, a leader in the giallo genre. The exploration of these conventions will help explore the modification of them in the neo-giallo genre.<\/p>\n

Hallam, Lindsay. (2017). Touching the Colour and Sound of Your Body’s Tears: Affect and<\/p>\n
Homage in the Neo-Giallo. <\/p>\n
Annotation:<\/p>\n
Lindsay Hallam is a Senior Lecturer in Film at the University of East London. She is the author of the book Screening the Marquis de Sade: Pleasure, Pain and the Transgressive Body in Film and she has also written for several peer-reviewed journals and anthologies about different aspects of horror cinema. In her article \u201cTouching the Colour and Sound of Your Body’s Tears: Affect and Homage in the Neo-Giallo\u201d she begins by talking about the appeal of giallo films and why audiences were so attracted to them. She then talks about how contemporary filmmakers are taking influence from the ways that giallo evoked sensory responses in the audience to create a new wave of neo-giallo films. Hallam then goes in depth about how violence is presented in giallo films and the bodily reaction it gives, as well as how neo-giallo incorporates this and other giallo techniques. She continues by exploring some of the common features of early giallo films including black gloves worn by the killer, and genre self referencing. Hallam finishes the essay by exploring the 2009 \u200b\u200bBelgian-French thriller horror film, Amer, in eight parts and how this neo-giallo uses many of the same techniques as giallo films to create sensory responses. I believe that this essay will be very helpful in helping me formulate my argument and has lots of evidence that can help me explain how techniques of giallo films have been adapted for modern audiences in neo-giallo films. <\/p>\n

Refn, Nicolas W, director. The Neon Demon. Koch Media, 2016. <\/p>\n
Annotation:<\/p>\n
Nicolas Winding Refn is a Danish film director, screenwriter, and producer. He is known for directing the Pusher trilogy (1996-2005), Bronson (2008), Drive (2011), and The Neon Demon. The Neon Demon, a 2016 psychological horror film, follows an aspiring model in Los Angeles as she traverses the industry and deals with men, misogyny, and jealous models. This film is a great example of the wave of neo-giallo films being created by contemporary directors. Stylish cinematography and jarring visuals combine to create an almost hyper-giallo film with scenes of necrophilia, murder and cannibalism all under neon lights. The film uses fetishistic attention to knives and dreamlike pacing to turn every motel, catwalk and nightclub into a hunting ground for the main character. I will definitely be able to use examples from this film to show how stylistic components of giallo films have been adapted and modified. I think this will be a great film to use as an example as it is very similar in plot and style to Suspiria (Argento, 1977), one of the most popular giallo films.<\/p>\n

James Gracey is a library assistant in London and the author of THE COMPANY OF WOLVES (Devils Advocates) & DARIO ARGENTO (Oldcastle Books). Gracey interviews Ryan Haysom, Jon Britt, and Catherine Morawitz, the director, cinematographer, and producer of Yellow (2012) respectively. Ryan Haysom is an editor and director, known for his work on V for Vendetta (2005), The Brothers Grimm (2005) and Captain America: Civil War (2016). Haysom directed Yellow, a short neo-giallo film that follows an old man on the hunt for a vicious serial-killer of women who is committing a series of gruesome murders across neon-lit 1980s Berlin. The interview covers how the storyline was created, influences on the film, and the process used for the stylistic choices. This interview will be very helpful to form my argument as well as give some insight from a director of neo-giallo and how they are influenced by early giallo films. The short film itself could potentially be used as well to discuss how the director is influenced and how that results on the screen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
