Check out this trailer we put together for Jon Towlson’s upcoming class on the turn to “gruesomeness” in 1930s horror , which explores violence, cruelty and disfigurement in a variety of films, from favourites to obscurities. The class takes place this coming Thursday March 16th, 2017 and will also act as a launch for Jon’s Rondo-nominated book on the topic (which you can buy at the class, or online here: https://www.amazon.com/Gruesomeness-American-Horror-Films-1931-1936/dp/0786494743/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8).
